Holding both of these teams to 35 (OU) and 24 (Oklahoma State), as well as holding Tech to 32. Texas absolutely deserves to be playing the winner of Alabama / Florida.

Texas has held a number of teams to season lows

add KU, Rice, FAU, TAMU....probalby not as impressive but considering we held this very impressive OU offense to 35 speaks volumes

Oklahoma is the better team, but Texas obviously has a case since they beat OU. Doesn't matter though, it will be OU vs UF in the title game as long as both win their conf title games, and whining/arguing about it is useless.

Texas deserves to play Missouri. If they win the Big 12, they deserve to play in the BCS title game

OU is the better team?

Their advantage is that they played their tougher competition down the stretch. If Texas beat them by 10 on a nuetral field to end the season, it would be a Texas sweep in the polls. The dominant running game and defense that they were supposed to have developed didn't show up today whatsoever. Ok State moved the ball with the same mixed gameplan Texas had, and Texas stopped OU with a better defense.

Neither teams in the Big 12 deserves to be in the Big Game with those garbage defenses

TEXAS beat both Missouri and Oklahoma, who both happen to be in the Big 12 title game. If there is a god, something will happen for Texas. I'm hoping that last touchdown that Stoops scored comes back to bite him in the ass, and it very very well could. Some of these old school coaches will find it tasteless and classless.

EXACTLY! Who has the #1 scoring defense in the BIG 12? You guessed it, TEXAS. No one, and I mean no one in the Big 12 has a better chance to stop Florida than Texas. ESPECIALLY with Austin Box going down for the Sooners.

All you guys are going to be in for a let down, when no one from the Big 12 gets in.

Just watch as Alabama vs Fla ends up being a rematch

Mack Brown sounded like such a stooge in the in-game interview too. Apparently head-to-head only applies to him when it's texas and OU, but not Texas and TT. He certainly knows how to campaign! (he got them in to the championship game once before) Dont think his begging and crying will be enough this time though....

Who said anything about stopping Florida? You could just as easily say Oklahoma is the only team in the Big 12 with the offense to KEEP UP with Florida.

USC would be Florida also, so if we want the TRUE top 2 teams put the Gators and Trojans out on the field. That's not happening though, unless OU goes down to Mizzou. Then they might have a shot.
