Work with me here. The BCS used margin of victory. We allowed a very bad Louisiana Tech team to keep the game close. That is why we finished 3rd.

Why didn't you bold the part about garbage time, since that is clearly what I was responding to. Either way, my point still stands: it was that game that kept us out of the title game because of the MOV component, and La Tech being so bad.

Again, it wasn't garbage time. Louisiana Tech had almost 500 yards of offense that day. We can talk about what the computers should have considered, but ignoring what they actually did consider is what kept us out of the title game.

What did he have, ten of those? Would've been a lot more if we didn't go chasing two point conversions too early.

So Bobby Bowden understood the system, as did the fans. Thanks, Butch. FYI, that score wasn't the result of clearing the bench with a big lead. La Tech did whatever they wanted on offense all day.

The Louisiana Tech game dropped us to #3. Do your homework, please.

The Louisiana Tech game in 2000 was the real head-scratcher. Cost us a title.
