. . . he was blabbing for during the Rose Bowl.
Cause if you had a "Plus One" this year, you would HAVE TO put Utah in it.

the "plus one" doesn't even solve anything this year even minus Utah. Let's say he means USC since the Rose Bowl was Herbstreit and Brent's latest shill for every team on earth tour. OK, let's say OU beats Florida....does the "plus one" game leave out UT?
note to Barry Switzer....too much make-up bro.

Not to mention too much shit analysis; if you can call it that.

In reality he's about opinions, not analysis.

"out of high school", he said. that's Barry. his status is tied up in the way the game was 20 years ago and his stock in traditional powers. that's kind of thing about being great or rich....your world-view doesn't have to change. there's no friction.
it's not like they are paying Barry to do any homework about either team.

That's certainly evident.
During the Orange Bowl, his and Johnson's "analysis" was beyond painful.
"Well, I think whichever team is able to take advantage of the opportunities they are given will be the one to win."
Ya think, guys?
Can't remember which one of them made that insightful statement during the halftime, but the other one was nodding in approval as if something profound had just been unveiled.

I never understood the thought that the 'and one' would solve anything for just this reason. It doesn't clear anything up. Besides this situation, it could make a team that is a clear-cut undeated #1 have to play another game against another 1-loss team for no reason.
8 team playoff [highest ranked teams], use 6 bowls in rotation for quarter-final, and semi-final and have a national championship game. Regular season remains relevent, conferences can still have their money making championship game. Simple.

If Texas wins, you could have a sweet 4-team playoff with Texas, USC, Utah and the winner of Florida-Oklahoma.

Kirk is a cocksucker, fuck him. Dude sucks about 20 team balls a year.
"Is there any question who the number one team is?" referring to Texas, then Alabama, blah, blah, blah.
I mean STFU and don't even talk, don't talk about shit you know can't happen.
Fuck +1 anyway. Like said above, wouldn't do dick because SC is still outside of the top 2.
You can't keep SC in front of Utah now.

i agree with this. after the cruel 3 week night game stretch of OU-Tech, OU-OSU, and OU-Mizzou i heard Kirk and Brent ballgag every team on planet earth as number 1.
i used to tolerate Herbstreit but i think he fucking sucks. listening to him for 3 hours is horrible. Gary Danielson is Vin Scully compared to Kirk. though, Bob Davie still sucks more. jesus bob, how many times are you gonna say "it's like i said before"? "it's like i said before, a team that converts it's 3rd downs will punt *on average* less than a team that doesn't"....or some brainbuster like that.
