Man, those are some sour [expletive] grapes. well, it is a sham title... eeking out a victory as a heavy favorite and the underdog loses (by far) their most important player almost at kickoff... How is that Alabama's fault? They knocked him out of the game. This perception of big games always confuses me. It's not their fault they knocked McCoy out of the game. It's the fact that they should have rolled easily after knocking him out. Texas had the ball down only 3 with 3 minutes left. I'm a Purdue and Big Ten fan, so I really could care less... just saying... Texas is still a team loaded with talented players. Obviously the QB is the most important player, but it's not like the rest of the team was going to lay down. It's not like the Bears losing Cutler, Texas actually has talent at every position.
