actually final rankings do mean . its the reason why texas is in a BCS bowl, and tt isn't.
personally, my problem didn't lie with the head-to-head matchup so much as it did with the fact that UT played a harder strength of schedule (which included beating OU on a neutral field). Did I feel they deserved to be ranked about OU? Sure. But i can understand why OU was ranked higher. But not Florida. Not one ing bit. Again, they played a MUCH harder strength of schedule than Florida, and their one loss came to a ranked team, while Florida lost to ing unranked Ole Miss. Not to mention, aside from the Alabama win the highest ranked opponent at the end of the season was ranked 17th. Pathetic. Before last weeks games, UT had played the 12th hardest schedule in the nation. OU had the 17th hardest, and Florida had the 28th hardest. Oh, and Bama, who was also incredibly ing overrated, played the 73rd hardest schedule. UT and OU were clearly better teams than Florida and Alabama. I can understand Bama being ahead, since they were undefeated, but Florida? Bull . It should be UT and OU, mainly based on their strength of schedule. If it wasn't for the love affair with the SEC, Florida probably would not have been in. Being completely honest, I feel the top 3 ranked teams at the end should have been UT, OU, and TT. The only reason TT got ranked so lowly was cause of the beatdown by OU, which shows even more reason why there should be a playoff system. Margin shouldn't matter, and while they say it doesnt in the computer rankings, it clearly does in human polls, which is 2/3 of the BCS rankings.
