I'm not saying it did... I'm just saying... people keep discrediting UT. Yeah they haven't played well.. saying they wont make the title game... saying OU will beat em... I think that's being ignorant. OK.. maybe they aren't the No. 2 team.. but they sure as hell are the No. 3... How can you say otherwise? They played bad, but they find ways to win the game.... good teams can do that.. they actually made the score better than how they actually played... I think one of the commentators on ESPN referred to this....
The system was changed after that to make the computers matter less and to try to ensure that doesn't happen anymore. There were only 3 1-loss teams, OU fell to #3 in the polls, but the computers didn't care about the timing of the loss and left them at #1. OU also had 2 BCS conference teams in its non-conference schedule and the B12 was pretty good that year.
