The Rose Bowl was a game of equals, both teams brought their A games and put on a great show. That`s why they play the games, on any given Saturday and all that. The fans got some real great games this year. My only complaint with this game was the 3-pete claims by the media for USC, the BCS was created to establish a single National Champion and LSU was it 2 years ago, not USC.

I was born and bred a Sooner fan so I was rooting for the Big 12 team. I was crushed after USC whipped my Sooners last year so I`m glad Texas came out on top. As a Sooner fan I hope Vince Young goes Pro! Texas is our arch enemy every October but I always root for the conference when OU isn`t involved.

On a side note, the Big 12 has performed the best in each of the last 2 Bowl seasons, below are the last two years results;
