It's time for your least favorite blog entry, but (hopefully) you're getting used to itThe Gators are BCS Champs!!!!
If you want to see more pics of the game (and I know you do), just click on the picture and it will take you to GatorSports.com.
Despite the Gator victory, there is some question as to who the best team in the country is. Some say USC, Texas, or Utah. They all have good arguments. USC's loss wasn't worse than Florida's loss. Texas' loss to Tech was really close. Utah didn't lose.
Great. Congratulations to all of those teams. If I were a fan of your team I would agree with you (I really would). But the schools all agreed to these rules and they happen to have worked in Florida's favor.
I comfort myself with the thought that out of all of those schools, only Florida's president, Bernie Machen, has publicly lobbied for a playoff system. He was laughed out of SEC President meetings for doing it last year, but at least he spoke up.
If your college president will join him, maybe we can get a true playoff and be done with the BCS system. Until then, we live with the system we've got. Sorry USC, Texas, and Utah.
Oklahoma impressed me. Kudos to the opponent for being fast, tough, and relentless.

Aaron,
Nice win last night, heck of ball game. We were thinking of you sitting in your living room in your gator suit cheering last night! Congrats!!

Actually Utah has been lobbying for a playoff for years. Goes with being a non-BCS school.
