If USC was #1, it would be a perfectly acceptable attitude.

Oklahoma beat them at home. And it's entirely possible they'll do it again. But Oklahoma has had severe trouble on the road and, oh, yeah, lost to Texas Tech. Missouri's won every game since then except kU by two scores or more. What, teams only get better as the season goes on if they're OSU, USC, or LSU?

Skip was solely using the #1 ranking to justify Mizzou as the favorite. How does that make sense? Oklahoma already beat them, and prevailing opinion (including my own) says that Oklahoma is overall the better team and will do it again. Why should something as meaningless as a subjective ranking dictate the favorite heading into a game?

Todd offered an opinion as to why Oklahoma would win. Skip said "Mizzou is #1. They're the favorite." Deep stuff, Skip.

Look, agreeing with Bayless makes me want to skin myself alive and then deep fry myself and serve myself up to Mangino.

BUT.

So, Alabama beat Tennessee. If they played again, Alabama is obviously the favorite.

Oh, and Stanford. Stanford beat USC. So if they played again, Stanford is obviously going to win, right?

How about Kentucky? What, if Kentucky had made the title game, Kentucky would have to be favored, right?

OH, and annihilated them in the fourth quarter? Really? It wasn't the two fumbles on account of playing in that overgrown trailer park that sparked the Sooners to pull ahead? Really? Did you watch the game? Because domination is not really what Oklahoma did so much.

Mizzou may lose on Saturday, but McShay was the one being a moron.

"OU will win!"

Well, why Todd?

"Because they're OU! It's MISSOURI! They can't wIn! ITS' MISSOURI! GALGALFHAFDHHADLFHLHDHA!"

Well said, Todd. Back to more coverage of two-loss USC and how they're the best team in the country. Except for Stanford.

Because Stanford beat USC. Stanford beat USC. USC was beaten by Stanford. USC scored less points than Stanford in head to head battle. Stanford was victorious. STANFORD BEAT USC! BLARGAHLARG!
