OK St. combined rankings of their 4 equal 69..divided by 4 is 17.25
So bama has wins over higher average ranked opponents, OK state has more
actual wins against top 25 teams. Considering the arguments being made here
and there, this element is kind of telling and kind of useless. It shows that OK
St. did in fact play a higher ranked schedule, but bama did demolish their foes
rather convincingly and had no business screwing the pooch in front of their own
fans. When it came down to it, it WAS style points, after all. That was not supposed
to be a factor...hmm. It is sad to me because UA and LSU fans are going to be glued
to the screens. But after waiting 5 weeks for the show, I think very few outsiders
will care to watch. Some might, who knows.
I say OK State deserved the chance to play LSU.

I Agree It's Close, But Do You "Really" Think OK State Could Play LSU To A Tie In Regulation, Brad?
