The disappointing LSU performance is all the more glaring when you count how Ark gambled and lost on a 2 pt. play.
Ark also missed 2 field goals.
Ark was in FG range in the last minute before an interception sealed the 2 pt loss.
LSU was favored by 17.
PSU should easily trade up to #3.
The Lions need only await a UTX or USC loss, possibly both ( really unlikely), to get into the Rose Bowl for the National Championship.
The other big money bowls will all bid for Joe Pat’s team.
The SEC Championship game vs UGA will be a must win if LSU want to get back to #3.
This is of course, dependent on the VT as the Hokies can score the BCS #3 with the ACC Championship win after a strong showings vs UNC.
How many years have we had the BCS? 7.
Some yahoo thinks he has written a gret piece here…

If no part of his nightmare occurs, I think, this is the first time in the BCS history that the clear #1 & #2 ranked teams will play in the ChampGame.
I seem to recall arguments over most , if not all the other games.
I personallly miss the mix of 11 Bowls to choose from on NYD (and about 21 for the week to ten days around some long forgotten segregationist holiday and NYD.)
I checked the rankings link above and the LSU Tigers are still at #3, but by a smaller margin over Penn St.
coincidentally, the Lady Tigers are currently ranked #3 in Women’s basketball.
#3 LSU trails #13 UGA by 2 TD’s at 11:50 to go in the 3rd Q.
LSU has Lost!!!
#5 VT trails unranked FSU early in the 3rd Q 3 - 17.

Upsets abound today except for #1 and #2.
VT might still tough it out.
Looks like FSU is going to hold on.

The heat of the Orange Bowl should be favorable to FSU as I listen on the radio, but FSU just had a field goal attempt bounce off of the upright.
With so many misses, the kickers are giving their old coaches heart attacks.
Texas is number 1 . get over anything other than that. Final score : texas 34 USC: 25
ok…. SO I WAS OFF JUST A LITTLE: Texas 41 USC 38 I knew we would win.

VERY nice win.
I don’t think that Texas knew they would win for a while there tho’ . . . .
So CC how did that game rank with your “grey cup” thing 4 months ago? You like american football just a little bit more … eh?
Being from the A&M area, but still a Texan, I had a little heart in the game for the Longhorns. It’s been a while since I’ve watched any sports, but the bowl games this weekend were exciting. Now, if only the “Professional” athletes would play like the college guys, then maybe they’d be worth a fraction of what they really get paid.
However, that game could have gone either way. They are both great teams. There never is a number 1. It was an awesome game, and I’m glad it was so close.
