OSU beat a flawed system to get into the championship game. <\/font><span class=\"bodytext\">There&#8217;s something inherently wrong when a team who plays a soft schedule and then loses in November, scores its biggest victory without even playing.<\/span><font class=\"highlight\"> And because of this, I&#8217;m not truly convinced that LSU is the best team in the country. Since there is no playoff, I would have liked to see USC vs. Georgia in the Rose Bowl. The Trojans and the Bulldogs are the best two teams in the nation. If that game had taken place, there would have been less doubt about who is the best.<\/font><\/p>\n<p>And people wonder why I can&#8217;t fully embrace College Football.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was watching the abortion known as the BCS Championship last night.
