Thus the debate of what wins championships? In past history the teams with a better defense won more Championship games than the high powered offenses. WHY?
It could be the lay off affected the timing, could be the QB just had a bad game no one really knows. The only team from the SEC that played a Big 12 school won ( Arkansas ) BUT Tex A&M gave up a BIG lead because Arkansas has a pretty good offense but struggles against good defenses.
I was not for an Alabama- LSU re-match UNTIL all these teams started losing and have basically given it to Bama. I look at OSU now with one loss and to me it is worse than Alabama's loss because an unranked team beat them.......but I guess why all this talk is subjective. Each team can make a case for their team at this point.
Aint it funny though about 4 weeks ago the BCS was so afraid of having so many undefeated teams....now look what we have.......One thing is definitely for sure though. ANY TEAM can be beat on any given Saturday, or Friday, or Thursday.

Very well put. Until OU or anyone else in the Big12 start to concentrate on Defense they will play second fiddle to the top SEC teams.
OUs defense when Mike Stoops was there was awesome.
