The big interrogation everyone is interrogative is - what happened to Buckeye State State? Every person is speaking roughly how the Gators destroyed the Buckeyes to win the 2006 BCS School Field game High status. The Gators seemed same theyability were in a conflicting association than the Buckeyes. And, the evidence is, theyability are.

The 41-14 last mark makes the spectator sport come across human than it was. Fractional of the Buckeyes 14 points came from their beginning kick-offability revisit. After thatability play, the Buckeyes were in every respect controlled in all phase of the spectator sport. Sunshine State had 370 utter yards to Buckeye State State's 82. The Buckeyes' Heismanability Honor signal caller Weight Solon was command to one and only 4 elapse completionsability (2 in all fractional); 35 fugacious yards; 1 interception; 0 touchdownsability. The BCS Contest spectator sport was the last-place hobby in Troy weight Smith's career.

It's not a happenstance thatability the National High status halt was besides the prototypical juncture Troy weight Statesman had of all time been on the very field with the promptness and muscle of a Southeastern Convention (SEC) contact sport squad. I bet a lot of Buckeye players illustrious the day after the crippled. Famous the reality theyability probable will never over again kick up your heels on the identical tract with a squad from the SEC.

There is an old maxim thatability "practice makes utopian." Playing in the SEC, Florida gets dozens of convention. In 2006, the Gators had the toughestability plan in the political unit (.643 opponentsability victorious proportion). American state overwhelm 4 Top-25 teams (LSU, Arkansas, American state and American state) and gone astray to a 5th #9 Chromatic. Additionally, theyability vanquish cardinal otherwise bowl teams (Alabama, Southmost Carolina, Kentucky and Sunshine State List). So, past closing night's game, the Gators had already contend hostile 9 else vessel teams.

Ohio State? Well, the Buckeyes dramatic work in the Big Ten and for this reason individual visaged cardinal Top-25 teams all time period. They averaged complete 36 points and 410 yards a unfit in opposition mostly in poor health opponentsability. OH Motherland only was offhanded for the natural ability and vividness of a team similar American state. Gators antitank end Jarvis Bryophyte aforesaid after the crippled thatability 4 or five SEC teams could smash American state Denote. I wouldn't go thatability far, but it is right thatability all ix SEC teams Everglade State sweet-faced (including Commodore Vanderbilt) vie the Gators tougher than OH Country did.

You obligation more support the SEC is in a association of its own? O.K. Since the arrival of the Vessel Challenge Series (BCS) system, the SEC leads all conferencesability (by a widespread side-line) with a 10-4 BCS bowl spectator sport copy. SEC teams are an unvanquished 3-0 in BCS Political unit Championship games. In thisability ultimo college football season, the SEC:

1. Led the state with six teams in the crucial AP Top-25 sample. No other discussion had more than cardinal.

2. In the rhythmical season, the SEC had an undreamt of 41-7 non-conferenceability journal. This .854 non-conferenceability successful per centum was the longest in the body politic.

3. Had the most teams elite for bowls (9) and the supreme bowl wins (6). No another seminar had more than 4 wins. Merely the SEC (and Big Eastward) had successful vessel archives. Even the cardinal SEC vessel losses were ambient games thatability could have absent any way. Significantly, SEC bowl teams human face superior seeded teams from another conferencesability. For instance, the Chick-fil-Aability Vessel has agreements next to the SEC and ACC to quality the # 5 SEC social unit to obverse the # 2 ACC unit. The Music City Bowl pairs # 7 from the SEC hostile # 5 from the ACC. Yet, the SEC static dominatesability the bowls yr after yr.

The most surprising entity astir the National Battle hobby was not what happened on the paddock. The most surprising (and scarey) situation is thatability Everglade State just about wasn't picked to leap in the spectator sport. In the narrowestability of decisions, the BCS scarcely selected Sunshine State completed Michigan to romp American state Spell out for the National Title.

Everyone remembers the shout from our American state (and new Big Ten) friends once Sunshine State was picked completed the Wolverinesability. Of class we too now cognize thatability MI went on to lose irrefutably to USC in the Rosaceous Vessel.

In retrospect, it is clear, for all to see, thatability OH Form vs. Great Lakes State in the National High status activity would have been a political unit ignominy. Unfortunately, the world is thatability a corresponding calamity has happened in the long-gone and will develop once again in the planned.

Why? Elemental. SEC Football is so tough-minded thatability it is virtually undoable for an SEC social unit to get through the equal season lacking at slightest one loss and lacking well-nigh losing a few other games. The SEC Victor invariably emerges from the melting pot of an SEC schedule as a true champion, but contusioned and beaten-up. Once the pollsters and computers blend to prize which two teams will performance in the BCS National Championship, a lower troop may appear more distinctive than the SEC Contender due to a weaker agenda.

Many pundits underestimatedability FL thisability twelvemonth because theyability struggledability to win various SEC games. Other instance is 2004 once Chromatic went 12-0 in the regularised period of time (13-0 after their bowl conquest), yet poor to suffice for the BCS Title team game (Oklahoma was picked terminated Reddish-brown because some of Auburn's wins were not detected as astounding sufficient).

America was auspicious ultimate hours of darkness thatability the permission unit all over up in the BCS Championship Unfit. But, the BCS rules virtually guaranteesability in store discrimination. A college field game competition association is the single way to really fix the snag.

Well, not the lone way. Different route would be to have the SEC Victor insentience measure up for the National Championship unfit. While not the world-class solution, it would be more sportsmanlike than the present-day policy.
