Greg Cote of the Miami Herald writes that there’s no question about it: the BCS got it right with Florida.

Let there be no doubt, or sour-grapes discussion today, about a national championship left unresolved.

Let there be no rote resumption of complaints against the Bowl Championship Series or a renewed cry for a playoff.

The BCS got it right this time, and the right team won. The better one. The best one.

Anybody who doubts that today must be from Texas or Southern Cal or Utah. Or perhaps an idiot on general principle.

The Gators flat-out won this game and this title, and all the more impressively because it was less by Tebow’s magic (though he was voted game MVP) than by his defense defusing the other team’s epic offense.

Bradford had thrown 48 touchdown passes this season. His offense ran on jet power.

Florida made that offense look more like Oklahoma’s symbol: the Sooner Schooner, a covered wagon pulled by two small ponies of the type rented out for kids’ backyard birthday parties.

Let me pause for a second to laugh…

Anybody who doubts that today must be from Texas or Southern Cal or Utah. Or perhaps an idiot on general principle.

Then punch me in the face and call me an idiot, Greg, because I certainly doubt that the BCS has ever got it right. And that’s not a knock against Florida because they were amazing after losing to Ole’ Miss earlier in the year, but how could anyone in their right mind say that the BCS got this right? Utah didn’t get a chance to play Florida and neither did Texas. And saying that the “Gators flat-out won this game and title” is a bit of a stretch considering that if Oklahoma converts in the red zone, I don’t know if Florida comes back with the way their offense played for most of the night. (Again, not to take anything away from the Gators’ defensive play.)

No, no, no, no – NO! This isn’t the way it’s supposed to be. There should be a clear cut winner and no debate that follows. Their should be a playoff, where all the deserving teams get a shot and then (and only then) can we say that a team “flat-out won this game and this title.”
