True, but the BCS "NC" game selection was controversial. Oklahoma was unbeaten, an easy selection. However, as I'm sure you recall, FSU, Miami, and UW were all conference champions with one loss. And, UW beat Miami, Miami beat FSU. Seems like the advantage should have gone to UW, yet FSU got the nod over both UW and Miami. Fucked up system for sure.MikeDamone said:Both Washington and OSU lost conference games that year. Neither deserved any first place votes. Oklahoma was 13-0. Stop being a dumbass.

I argued the same when it happened, but with the benefit of hindsight both FSU and Miami were far superior teams to UW (and had far superior seasons).Southerndawg said:

UW's entire argument hinged on the fact we beat Miami in the second game of the year with a young QB in his first road game.
UW had the worst loss of the three, and the worst margin of victory, with similar schedules.
I'm glad we got to beat Drew Brees in the RB rather than get run over in the NC game.. -
Very debatable. Miami and FSU had more talent that UW, but that shouldn't matter. How did they have far superior seasons? UW's only loss was a road game to a top 10 team (Oregon). UW beat two top 10 teams (Miami, Oregon St). Miami did as well (FSU, Virginia Tech). Florida State had only one top 10 win (Florida.) Florida State making it before Miami and UW is bullshit, and UW had a legitimate case that they deserved to be in the BCS Championship because they beat Miami when they played. Point differential doesn't mean much to me when the teams have already played head to head.HillsboroDuck said:

Oklahoma beat FSU 13-2 in the title game. I know they were loaded on defense, but I have a really hard time believing UW would get shut out on offense like FSU did. Tui would have willed us to a couple of scores. It would have been a good game... What could have been.

There is no way to know what would have happened in a UW-Oklahoma game that year. Miami had the best team in the country in terms of talent, no doubt about that. I attended a few games played by most of that group of Canes including a game in the Swamp where they absolutely stole the Gators manhood. They had a string of first round draft picks. But, UW did beat them in 2000 and they did it with very physical play. Just my 0.02, but head to head play trumps the other factors you've mentioned. I still think UW deserved to play Oklahoma and also believe that that UW team matched up better against Oklahoma than that FSU team did.HillsboroDuck said:

Oklahoma was 13-0. Simple fact. Case closed. UW lost to oregon and beat some very average to poor teams in less than dominating fashion. That cost them votes. End of discussion.

Not sure what Oklahoma has to do with this. Nobody is arguing about them.MikeDamone said:Oklahoma was 13-0. Simple fact. Case closed. UW lost to oregon and beat some very average to poor teams in less than dominating fashion. That cost them votes. End of discussion.

It cost them more than votes (they were 4th in both major polls) - UW was absolutely destroyed in the computers. UW was 10, 5 , 8 and 11 in the BCS computer poles (included one designed to show UW was the rightful NC in 1991). Compare that to Miami at 3, 3, 2 and 2, or FSU at 2, 1, 1 and 1.MikeDamone said:Oklahoma was 13-0. Simple fact. Case closed.

The truth is, outside of a few UW fans abusing the transitive property, we weren't even in the discussion for the title game in 2000.
