Why are you asking me? And so what? If you've been following football for any length of time you've heard of the "any given day" truism.
Alabama vs Florida was the National Championship game...all the rest of this stuff is gravy.
How many yards did Nebraska put up against Texas?
BCS records:
SEC: 12 and 5
Big 12: 7 and 9
Meetings between Teas and Alabama: Texas 7, Alabama 1
Errr, make that Texas and Alabama!
SEC: 12 and 5
Big 12: 7 and 9
Meetings between Teas and Alabama: Texas 7, Alabama 1
============================================= Given that the SEC has only lost 5 BCS games, I seriously doubt that Texas has beaten Alabama in seven of those games.
It has been 26 years since they last played.
....and in your little mind I'm sure you really believe that.....SEC,SEC,SEC! P.S.--Oklahoma State 24 UGA 10.....LMAO.
Alabama and Texas havn’t played each other since the BCS was formed. They have only played 8 times with Texas with Texas winning 7 of those. Alabama has only beaten Texas once.
LSU would beat Texas? Wipe the hurricane residue from your homer eyes. Yes, the SEC is a great football conference. An also-ran from the conference is not going to beat Texas with regularity.
Or is the rule when the ball hits the ground after it goes out of bounds?
I thought it was the first.....but I'm not sure.
FRegards,
They don't. That's why I favor and eight-team playoff where all of it could be settled on the field. If my plan was in place, we would have this entree on December 19: 9) Georgia Tech at 1) Alabama 8) Ohio State at 2) Texas 7) Oregon at 3) Cincinnati 6) Boise St. at 4) TCU Semifinals would part of the New Years bowls and the Chamiponship Game would be in mid-January. (If you're wondering where Florida is in the playoff - they're out because didn't win their conference. The rest did and that's the key to qualifying for the playoff).
According to internet sources, Walt Anderson, the Big XII official who made the decision to give Texas the extra second on the clock, allowing Texas to win the Big XII Championship graduated from UT Dental school in 1978. He is a life long resident of Texas, currently residing in Sugar Land, Texas.
Anderson played high school and college football in Texas.

Big 12 admits it blew call that cost Missouri win
Email Print Share
Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — This time, Big 12 officials blew the call.
The league’s supervisor of officials admitted Monday that the crew working Saturday’s Missouri-Iowa State game made a wrong call that nullified what would have been the go-ahead touchdown late in the Tigers’ 21-16 loss to the Cyclones.
Walt Anderson, who heads the Big 12 officials, apologized to Missouri coach Gary Pinkel for the error and said his crew “made a mistake” when offensive lineman Monte Wyrick was called for holding on fourth-and-goal from the 1 with 26 seconds left in the game.
The call wiped out a touchdown run by quarterback Chase Daniel that would have given Missouri (7-4, 3-4) a 22-21 lead. On the next play — fourth-and-goal from the 11 after the 10-yard penalty was marked off — Daniel was sacked and the game ended.
Pinkel said Anderson told him the officiating crew “blew it.”
“He said to me, ‘If you call that [holding] you have to call it 40 times a game,’” Pinkel said. “For him to admit that, it said a lot about him and the integrity of the conference office.”
Big 12 commissioner Kevin Weiberg acknowledged in a written statement that Anderson’s videotape review of the disputed call concluded it was “incorrect.”

SEC vs Big 12 2009 Bowl Results:
Georgia 44, Texas A&M 20
Ole Miss 21, Oklahoma State 7
Alabama 37, Texas 21
"SEC,SEC,SEC!" Indeed. LMAO.
If Colt McCoy didn’t get hurt Texas would have rolled the Tide big time. Jordan Shipley was a man among boys in the Alabama secondary last night with a second string, freshman QB throwing to him. Can’t say much for the other receivers on Texas who dropped a TD, a third down conversion and the “shovel pass” that cost them the game.
Prove it.
