you know you're in trouble when your best shot at scoring is predicated upon getting a kickoff:P
ginn hurt or not doesn't cover the turnovers or the interesting 4th and 1 playcall on your own 29...they didn't even look in the same league as Florida.
Which when they go over the quality wins (at Texas with a frosh QB and home against a Michigan team that got lit up by USC) and the fact that the Big Ten doesn't have a title game, really makes you question the wire to wire status of number 1. But everyone is a genius on Monday after the game

It is entirely possible that the best team in the Big Ten was Wisconsin, but everyone was so focused on OSU/MU that Wisconsin never got any credit at all...at 12-1. Until you look at its schedule, and you think with the exception of PSU, who else in the conference that they played and won was worth a damn? No one.
With Boise State and Florida putting their fingers in the BCS eye, I sure hope that we see an "and one" game sometime soon.
That said, I'm sorry Haikk. I don't think anyone expected the defensive showing of Florida today, having only given up 13 a game in the SEC, but there weren't too many high power offenses in that league, outside of Arkansas, whom they did beat in the title game. So 41-14 was out of nowhere.
Not having a title game cost the Pac 10 a USC shot at the title. And probably put so much rust on OSU that they had no shot against a team that had played two straight high intensity games in the SEC.
Big conferences need a game to put a loss on the chart the day before BCS finalizes. Now wisconsin who beat a conference champ in a bowl game kindof has to wonder how it would have fared tonight.

Not that they could beat anyone in the top4, but it is interesting that Boise is the only undefeated team at the end of all this!
They said there was "no way" Boise could beat Oklahoma either ;) Hello, playoff system please!
