Take a gander at 2005 on this list of of national champs. Somehow, "HI" gave USC the national title over Texas despite being beaten by them in the CHAMPIONSHIP!!!

That's pretty funny. I just got done watching some of the National Championship game again. It still amazes me that they stopped LenDale White on that 4th and 1.

I like to think you've seen that game over 80 times and still get worked up when watching it.

(This coming from the guy who just watched and wrote an article on the 1987 Fiesta Bowl and pretty much cried when Giftopolous intercepted that last pass)

(I also just rented the 75 Sugar Bowl on Netflix, Alabama and PSU. Haven't seen it yet)

watch the old nebraska game and let me know if that psu guy was out of bounds on that late in the game catch.

I love to watch it, not only because Texas won, but it was just an awesome game. I think it was the best game I have ever seen. The most disappointing thing about it is thinking what could have been with Ramonce Taylor.

How exactly did Cal get ranked in the AP Poll this week when they didn't even play? Its like John Chaney said: "Stupid is forever."

I can understand getting bumped up if you are already in the top 25 and you are on a bye, but how the hell do you get INTO the top 25 on a bye week? What the hell has Cal done to deserve that? There's probably 5 teams in there already that Tulsa could wallop.

And as far as BYU goes... good lord. There's 4 teams behind BYU that would beat BYU by 3 TD's. I like BYU and all, but this is lovefest is ridiculous.

Do people even watch these games? No chance in hell would BYU beat those teams!!!

Listen to ESPN announcers and you will find out that they only watch the game they are assigned to or something that is pointed out to them. There's no way they go out of their way to learn anything. It's sad.
