When the DAWGS tied for the National Championship - Duck's chances? - 12/10/01 09:50 PM
I can't recall which year UW tied for the football national championship - I think it was to Miami?
Well, I'm not a big quack fan but I am a fan of the NW schools of the Pac 10. (OK, in order: Beavs, Ducks, Dawgs, & Cougs - all by small margins). So I am a bit twinged by the lame computer hexed BCS pick of No. 4 Nebraska to meet No. 1 Miami in the Rose Bowl BCS championship game!
The final season national rankings by both the coaches and media polls had the Ducks No. 2. No. 3 Colorado crushed the 'huskers 62-36. So, a couple Q's for you guys in the know:
- Whazzup with the BCS bullsh!t?
- If possible, what would it take for the Ducks to eek out a National championship, or co-championship like the Dawgs did? Seems to me if both Miami and Nebraska play mediocre ball with the 'Huskers winning a close low scoring game against the 'Canes (or a tie), and if Oregon came up with a 'buffalo hide' in a big win over Colorado (I know the Buff's are hot, like the Beavs were last year, but I said 'if'), they could be voted the champion or co-champion with the Rose Bowl winner.
