Yes, but not for the reason you mention. Kaldric Send a noteboard - 08/01/2010 04:52:56 PM
Injuries happen, and a good team will have the necessary depth to continue on. Texas' backup QB was actually pretty good last night. McCoy is obviously better, but Gilbert wasn't embarrassing. The better team won last night, and likely would have had McCoy staid in the game.

No, the "National Championship" is tainted because there is still another undefeated team out there, and plenty of other great teams that could prove themselves better than Alabama. Unfortunately, we'll never know. Until there is an actual playoff, the "National Championship" will always be tainted. For what it's worth, though, I think Alabama would probably come out on top this year anyway.

Injuries happen. Besides that, when do Alabama and Boise State play? *NM* - 08/01/2010 06:45:14 PM 222 Views
Boise State has an opening in 2011. I'd love to see that game. *NM* - 08/01/2010 07:08:48 PM 222 Views
Injuries do not taint Championships, ever. - 08/01/2010 09:00:02 PM 563 Views
Meh, we're arguing semantics. - 08/01/2010 09:36:56 PM 537 Views
How about "cheapened"? *NM* - 08/01/2010 10:06:02 PM 251 Views
