All you USC fans who are crying about being ranked #1 in both polls and not going to the Sugar Bowl should keep in mind that college football has always been a sport that has penalized teams for WHEN they lose rather then how bad they lose and to whom. Since USC lost very early in the year and Oklahoma at the latest possible moment, USC gets the nod in the voters minds. Its like that every year. However, when you look at the three teams in contention right now (OU, USC, and LSU), OU and LSU have played tougher schedules and beat better opponents than USC, and as such deserve a spot in the title game. For better or worse, thats just the way it is. USC's number one ranking in the polls is nothing more than a product of good timing.
