Present.
Oklahoma State might just have something to say about the best team given a system in place to allow it. Neither LSU nor Al have faced an offense of their caliber. True enuff that OK St's defense is wanting and would yield 24-30 pts, but it's not inconceivable that they'd could stay on the field with either of the participants tonight. Just for argument's sake.
But these three have clearly separated themselves from the pack; even Ron Paul would probably agree.
You underestimate just how good Alabama and LSU is on offense, and both defenses made the other look silly....no other defense in the country comes close to those two.
Agreed. I seem to recall a similar argument was used against Texas a few years ago, with no one giving them a chance against USC. Funny how that turned out, though...
