In the latest BCS Standings (Bullshit Championship Stupidness), Texas is No. 2 and Oklahoma is No. 3. It hardly matters because the Sooners will leapfrog the team it lost to by beating the Cowboys in Stillwater Saturday. That victory will put Oklahoma in the Big 12 title game, where the Sooners are likely to pulverize Missouri … just like it did last year.

And now, the weird: Even though we have a reason to root for Oklahoma, we think it’s an absolute joke that the Sooners and Longhorns can be tied for the division lead, and Oklahoma’s going to the show because the computers say so. What’s most galling is that it wasn’t even like Texas beat Oklahoma at home – it was at a neutral site! Texas lost at Texas Tech; Oklahoma throttled Texas Tech at home. Dick Vitale, Stuart Scott, and anyone else with a modicum of fame who only has vision on one eye could see that. And please spare us the, “Oklahoma looks awesome” garbage. Would Oklahoma win a rematch? Maybe? Before you say so with any certaintly, for a moment, remember that we’re talking about Bob Stoops coaching a big game anywhere other than Norman.

Austin should be apoplectic and do everything it can to derail the Sooners this weekend. Sending hookers to the hotel rooms of Sam Bradford and DeMarco Murray? There’s a start.

Paint the visiting locker room pink, and then promise to paint it back after the game? Voodoo? Get ESPN to replay the WVU beatdown of Oklahoma every night this week on ESPN classic?

FBS: Fraudulent Bowl Subdivision. Flawed Bowl Subdivision. You can take it from here.

Texas vs. Oklahoma: a rivalry hot even on paper (LA Times)

PS – Just for kicks: Oklahoma State beats Oklahoma, Florida State beats Florida, Florida beats Alabama, Missouri beats Texas and UCLA beats USC. You know what that means, right? We’d have Texas Tech vs. Penn State for the National title.

PPS – We need some more time on the Heisman. A flood of emails in favor of Bradford over McCoy, and some were actually convincing.
