Theoretically, Alabama could still plausibly play for the National Title

Nebraska in 2001

That one was the fukking worst.

Nebraska didn't just lose, they got TRAMPLED by Colorado. Chris Brown was out there breaking off 50-yard TDs like nothing.

Oregon shoulda been in that game

Oregon or Colorado, Nebraska being in that game was just shocking. They actually changed the BCS rules because of that situation.

That Colorado vs. Nebraska game was one of the greatest ass whoopings Ive ever seen. IIRC, Nebraska went up like 14-0 in that game too.

338 yards rushing but it felt like 3,368

I grew up a CU fan, and even though I was at CSU at the time, was rooting like hell for CU to get the nod. They had 2 Ls that season though, really didn't deserve it.

Though when they beat Texas in the Big XII title game the next week, they put Nebraska back in the game

But man did Oregon whup their asses in whatever bowl game they played

One of my favorite games ever despite it being a blowout. An entertaining ass-whoopin in the cold weather.

And that was the year Nebraska beat us on a trick play with Eric Crouch

Yeah, Oregon smacked them in the Fiesta Bowl. I really thought Joey Harrington was certified as an NFL star.

Colorado was actually #3 in the end of season BCS rankings and not that far off from making the title game. It may have been a couple tenths of a point

edit: .05 of a point away from making the title game.

I remember watching that game with a big smile on my face. For me, its the greatest ass whooping Ive ever seen in sports. Bobby Purify and Chris Brown kept gashing Nebraska.

You can make an argument that Nebraska has never recovered from that game. Day after thanksgiving, #1 in the country, and supposedly the best team in America and hyped up as the best Nebraska team ever with a heisman trophy winning QB and then to get humbled like THAT.



edit: Its all coming back to me now, for me the 2001 Conference title weekend, 1998 Conference title weekend, and 2003 conference title weekend were my favorite ever for college football. So much fukkery those weekends.

Brehs, I didn't include FSU because A) they won't lose to Duke and B) I still want to see Bama vs FSU in the championship game.

Hey, what if Auburn wins and OSU loses--could Bama get in over Auburn? Think about this, Texas beat OU but OU went to the National Title game after beating I forget who for the conference championship. I think Texas and OU had identical records at the end of the year. I dunno, I'm just wondering if it could happen.

I think that was the year Texas, OU and Texas Tech ALL went 11-1...so it wasn't as easy.

No way Bama would jump Auburn.

not a chance.

The pollsters will make sure of that.

Yeah, and plus those losses were early losses. Bama beat Auburn in the last game of the year. Then again OU lost and still got in. But no one (outside of USC) was ranked high enough to jump OU; and the Sproles lead KSU definitely were not high enough to jump.

Y'all didn't get your ass whooped. Both LSU and OU offenses sucked ass that game.
