Is college football headed toward a split championship?
By Matt Hayes - SportingNews

At the very least, there is symmetry. A season of the unexpected, a bowl season of the unknown. In one final, ironic twist to the weirdest season of all, the BCS ratings system left us with a No. 1 team (Ohio State) that nearly everyone outside Columbus thinks isn't No. 1 and a No. 2 (LSU) that somehow found a way to the game because, well, it had the fewest warts. We think. This, of course, leads to the inevitable: The ever-fluctuating poll business ain't over yet. No matter what the BCS says, there still is an opportunity for a split national title. The Associated Press isn't part of the BCS party -- and frankly, neither is Sporting News.


Some of the highlights:

The undisputed champion: The Big Ten is the worst league among the Big Six, and any team -- even some Division I-AA schools -- would kill for Ohio State's nonconference schedule


The split title: Look, the Buckeyes are about as attractive as a New Orleans drag queen on a weekend bender. Never has a BCS No. 1 been so unloved. The Buckeyes didn't earn a spot in this game -- it was given to them. Still, the only way OSU splits a championship is if something unexpected -- a controversial ending to an awful game -- happens.

The undisputed champion: It comes down to this: LSU can't afford another overtime or last-minute win, especially with the preconceived unworthiness -- fair or not -- of Ohio State.


This fucker is getting email when the Bowl season is over. I don't give a shit how much it lowers me or plays into his hands.

Don't be too hard on Matt. He is one of the very few analysts who predicted a Buckeye win in the 2003 Fiesta Bowl.

It's the Buckeyes' party: Ohio State's Maurice Clarett
It's the Buckeyes' party: Ohio State's Maurice Clarett will outrun Miami's Willis McGahee, allowing OSU--surprise!--to celebrate the toppling of a Goliath. (Fiesta Bowl Preview).

They're gonna win. Go ahead and laugh; it's not like they haven't heard it before. Yep, they're boring, bland. They're about as painful to watch as a circumcision. And you know what else? They're gonna win. The Ohio State Buckeyes will beat the defending national champion Miami Hurricanes in the Fiesta Bowl national championship game.
