        For my serious thoughts. I honestly don't give a shit what folks voted BYU or Oklahoma. I don't care what Lou Holtz or the Herd or Godon Monson or Trev Alberts or that guy with the long eyebrows that Babs uses in much the same way I use Andrew Rich - to wake the neighbors screaming their name while doling out corporal punishment to one's own hindquarters.

        What I do care about is that BYU is a much better team than they were last year. I care that they beat Oklahoma with or without Sam Bradford. What I care about is that Bronco Mendenhall and Jaimie Hill gave the pussies in our fanbase who spent all summer pulling string about anything and everything a big glass of STFU. I care that Jordan Pendleton is finding his groove and a place to let his God given potential shine through. I care that Max Hall gave the same pussies that Bronco and Jaimie gave a glass of STFU a chaser glass of STFU. It was fun. Not quite as Shawshank Redemption like as the Beck to Harline, but it was real, real fun. I also care that Andrew Rich is on a mission from God to make my nipples hard. I also care that Brian Logan has a mother going crazy in the stands amongst a sea of lilly white descendents of Scando Pioneers getting fired up as her baby plays the game with a hell of a lot of heart and determination.

        I care that at this point BYU has another game with a chance to go 2-0.

              I guess it depends if it is a seeding or a result.

                          BYU is the only team to be undefeated against Oklahoma with more than one victory.

                            Oklahoma is better on paper. I would say they would win at least 9 out of 10 on paper. BYU is better on the field. I would say they would win 1 out of 1 on the field.

                            Oklahoma is probably the better team, but the best measurement is the head to head match-up. If this would have been the 11th game of the season and BYU was winless and Oklahoma was undefeated, I would concur that Oklahoma would be the better team even if BYU beat them.

                            Hell, I think we should give Oklahoma the 2008 National Championship. They were a better team than Florida, but had a bad night.

                              That's more like it. Maybe we could even have a parade.

                                It isn't clear at all.. But what is 100% FACT.. Is BYU won and OU fans can talk all they want about if this.. Or, if that...
