I had gotten sick of reading all the stuff on the net.sport.football about how wonderful OU's football team is. 2. Don James, the Husky coach, has been a long time opponent a playoff system to determine who's #1. His victory over OU puts him in the position of either having him to change his mind, or accept the fact that he's not #1 (assuming that the polls tonight confirm that BYU maintains their #1 ranking). As someone who favors a post-season tourney, I hope he reconsiders his position about whether a playoff is a good idea. Steve Vegdahl Computer Research Lab. Tektronix, Inc. Beaverton, Oregon
