Upon the BCS Championship

Well USC took Oklahoma out behind the woodshed last night and crushed them 55-19. Not only was this game not close, it wasn't close to close. Oklahoma had it all go awry; the fumble of an attempted advance on the kickoff, recievers slipping, White making bad throws when he shopuld have taken the sack, White taking deep sacks when he should have hurled it out of bounds, White getting picked-off three times, the ref's "letting them play" which the secondary of the Sooners could not.

Leinart looked like a Heisman winner, though I still think its the system. Carson Palmer was just as impressive last year, and the receivers at USC made all the circus grabs. Norm Chow, the USC offensive coordinator, just tooled on a Sooner secondary that many knew to be suspect. All purpose Reggie Bush was just about the only one not to get in on the party, because USC scored so often through the air they didnt get to run it that often.

I would have liked to see my front-runner favorite Auburn in a game with USC, as I felt all year that they were at least the #2 team in the nation. a team can not be asked to do more than win all their games, win their Conference, and win their bowl game. I love the idea of #1 playing #2, but determining those numbers still needs work.
