Congrats to all my fellow Buckeyes on the Ohio State National Championship. That was definately the most exciting of all the BCS Championship games. FSU-VT stands at number 2, and the others were pretty much yawners.
As a VT fan, I was just happy to see Miami lose. Miami however seems to be a bit sore about the pass interference call in the first overtime. ESPN quotes UM Secondary coach Mark Stoops as saying "And there's not another official in the history of the game that would make that call."
How dare the penalize Miami? (One of the, if not the, most penalized teams in college football.) I saw the play, and while I'm not exactly unbiased, Miami's Glenn Sharpe obviously had is hand around the waist of Chris Gamble while the ball was in the air. That is pass interference, and IMHO, it was a good call.
Still, Stoops sounds bitter. "I wanna see the replay and if that's as bad a call as I think it was, something ought to be done. That was a joke. That's all I can really say."
What can be done? Should they strip OSU of the title and give it to Miami? He reminds me of Al Gore.
