Don't know about that--the year Texas stole its way to the NC game (at the expense of our rightful Big XII title), there were other teams more deserving that would have put up a better fight than the limp-wristed slap Texas gave 'Bama.
'Bama may have been the best team, but they sure didn't earn it in the NC game, which kind of defeats the purpose of having said game in the first place.
The other reasonable options for that game were Florida, Boise and TCU. Texas was the only other undefeated BCS squad. I wouldn't call those 3 more deserving than UT that season.
You're missing the point--Texass wasn't undefeated. And despite their fraudulent one-loss record (when they really had two), a one-loss Florida, an undefeated Boise State, or a one-loss TCU (whose only loss was to Boise State when they were ranked #3) would have given 'Bama a better game and would have been a worthy #2 over the vermin of Austin.
Bottom line, we're supposed to be matching up the two best teams to play for the title, and the two best teams did not play that year. The BCS was created to match the two best teams to play for the title, and it's failed to do that almost as much as it has succeeded.
Your argument has a pretty big flaw, Texas was undefeated prior to their game with 'bama...
TCU and Boise(both played a weak schedule and don't deserve a championship game berth if another BCS team were undefeated, which Texas was) were undefeated prior to their bowl game. Florida didn't win their conference(the popular argument against Alabama this season).
