That's easy...Cal. They got screwed out of the Rose Bowl by a whiney Mack Brown from Texas..."please let my boys go to a BCS bowl. Just because we can't beat Oklahoma, don't punish my boys." No offense to any Burnt Orange Texas fans on here...but that chapped my hide. :twisted:

You guys would have loved to face Michigan that year. We don't win bowl games :roll:

Well now the mantra goes, "we don't go to bowl games" :shock:

LOL!!
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

Hoping people don't catch on that they ARE part of that media. I hate ESPN. :evil:

Arkansas... Believe 4 years ago finshed 10-2 in regular season and won the SEC West. They played Florida in the SEC Championship game and lost a close game. Fl played in the NC game and the Sugar Bowl passed over Ark for LSU who finished 2nd in the SEC West.

How about Auburn the year they went undefeated.

Auburn definitely was a screw job by the BCS.

Arkansas and the Sugar Bowl, really it was not the BCS screwing over Arkansas, it was the Sugar Bowl. The Bowl game could select the team and chose not to select Arkansas. That is one of the disadvantages of a conference championship game, as the loser becomes much less attractive to the bowls.
