If OU ends up tied with another team then they are Co-Champions of the league, regardless of who won head to head...

Jmorales22 is absolutely correct, if we don't win it then we don't win it, don't beg for a tie or you might as well move to s$&@water. That's like giving out participation trophy's, yeah they are shiny, but they don't mean crap!!

so we should scratch some numbers off the stadium, give back some rings and trophies?

**** that! If we get a piece of the title, we should claim it. To do otherwise would be a slap in the face to all of the players and coaches who earned it.

not a slap in the face, K-state earned it by beating us and its their trophy if they beat texas.

Gotta respectfully disagree. Without a CCG, this is the way its always been. If KSU wanted it outright, they shouldn't have gotten Baylored.

This way, Stoops can keep his never-gone-two-seasons-without-conference-championship streak alive, Boren and regents will raise his pay and we'll be expected to be happy with a two-loss season!

I guess that's where we disagree, see IMO there is not pieces of a title, there is title, or no title. Not to discount our coaches and players effort, but by losing to k state, they didn't earn it unless we win out and k state loses next week, in which case we earned it and can claim it. I think tying for championships went out the window with allowing tied games...

The question here is who does the Big 12 recognize as the champion. It appears that they call both teams co champions but then use a tie breaker rule to decide who gets the automatic BCS bid. If the title is awarded by the conference then you claim it.

The only one I ever had a real problem with was the Big XII South or North co-champs. That one was REALLY meaningless, since there was a championship game afterwards and you either go or you don't. I think Texas and A&M put up signs for a couple of those...
