Alright, boys and girls ... this week's BCS Standings are out.
The Florida St. Seminoles just won't cooperate with anybody who has been waiting for years to see Alabama and Oregon play. Nor should they. I like the Seminoles. They're a fun group to watch, they keep answering the bell, and Jameis Winston is, for my money, the most exciting player to watch in the college ranks this season.
And, I've taken grief in my lifetime, but I don't see how or why it is so hard to understand that I cheer in this order: 1) Team, 2) State, 3) Conference. In this arena, I'm saying go get it done, Baylor, and make the rest of us in Big 12 country proud. I mean, as much as the national pundits (along with us) have bemoaned the conference this season, wouldn't it just be about right for the Big 12 to really blow up the machine by finally returning to the BCS Championship in a supposed down year?
That's enough from me. Your turn. Discuss.
