Congrats to Utah for winning the undisputed national championship.

Utah 31, Alabama 17.  It couldn't have happened to a nicer opponent.  Miami and LSU fans the world around send up a single cheer.

The BCS is a joke, but this isn't new.  I hope the AP votes Utah #1.

Another MWC/WAC team goes unbeaten and isn't even considered for the national title.  I agree, the BCS is a joke and a playoff system needs to be implemented sooner rather than later.

Utah fans definitely have something to complain about.

If Texas wins next week, there will be a lot of anti-BCS screaming. It seems like an annual event at this point.

And with the way things have gone down the past two years, it is definitely justified.

I have to admit that it was sweet to see Nick walking off the field looking as pissed off as he did.What about Utah going into what was essentially a home game for 'Bama and whipping their ass!I think that the Utes do have a legit right to at least a split national title.

Bama was pretty much set up to win this game so nobody would bitch about the BCS system if Utah had the one loss...Oops!

  All year long I couldn't believe how many people were riding the Alabama bandwagon, especially knowing deep down how truly OVERRATED they were.  Last night, the Crimson Lied got exposed and got their asses handed to them by a SUPERIOR Utah team.

Alabama just didn't play a tough schedule. It wasn't a very weak one, but it certainly didn't merit being ranked over Utah. This game showed why.

To hell with the economy or foreign relations.  Obama better get this lack of playoffs fixed or his administration will be a failure. 

He has appointed most of his cabinet, when is he going to appoint a football fixit czar?

Not really as Texas is expected to crush Ohio State. If OU wins I think it should be split, but if Florida wins then Utah should get the NC as they crushed a team Florida couldn't.

i was at miami when the canes played bama in the sugar bowl in 1992... went to the game and miami had a stacked squad. playing bama in that dome is unreal, and gives home field advantage a whole new meaning.

before the utes lined up, i thought against the tide, in that stadium, boy they are going to get a severe ass beating. that is a very impressive win, and utah is quite deserving of a national championship.

however, the system they are a part of has chosen two other teams to play in its undisputed national championship game. its a real shitty system, unique only to div 1 (or fbs whatever the hell they call it) ncaa football. every other competitive sport logically awards a champion according to some kind of playoff tournament. go figure....
