PrintI'm not posting this poll to get an answer on who you think will win tonight's National Championship game, but to find out who you want to win. I'm curious to find out which team Ducks fans think they should be rooting for tonight. Let's first compile the facts:
Pac-10 vs. SEC, 2008: 1-1
Pac-10 vs. Big 12, 2008: 1-4
Pac-10 vs. SEC, all-time: 42-66 (.389)
Pac-10 vs. Big 12, all-time: 171-216 (.442)
Oregon vs. SEC, last five seasons: 0-0
Oregon vs. Big 12, last five seasons: 2-2
Oregon vs. SEC, all-time: 3-4
Oregon vs. Big 12, all-time: 13-24
Oregon vs. Florida, all-time: 0-1 (1929)
Oregon vs. Oklahoma, all-time: 1-6 (1958, 1966, 1972, 1975, 2004, 2005, 2006)
Note: All data was collected at College Football Data Warehouse. All-time conference statistics account for current alignments.
Does this game have any effect on the Pac-10's reputation? What about Oregon's reputation? Will it affect next year's preseason poll, which arguably does impact the BCS? Vote for the team you think helps Oregon and the Pac-10 the most, and then post comments answering these questions.

important statistic that was omitted… Pac 10 vs. SEC last 10 seasons: 10-7
I hate the SEC, I hate the Big 12, I hate both these teams. Rooting for OK simply because I have money on them.
I'm rooting for OK
because if they win, I win the ATQ bowl mania challenge.

I HATE OKLAHOMA…almost as much as I hate the Fuskies. I’m rooting against Oklahoma more than rooting for the Gators. Can you add a selection to the poll that says “I’m rooting AGAINST Oklahoma”? My guess is that would win the poll.
"When Bellotti attempted to shake the hand of Oklahoma State quarterback Zac Robinson after the game, Robinson offered his left hand. His right was swollen and battered from the Ducks' defense."
Elaborate about hatred for OU
After we beat them, the way Stoops whined and said he’d never play a PAC 10 team again (which he did AT UW this year) rubbed me the wrong way BADLY. Also, their fans are idiots…threatening to kill the replay official. That’s class right there.

The toughest part about cheering for OU...
is cheering for Stoops. He’s an ass…
But I like Bradford. He’s a damn good QB.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
He’s a damn good QB. I still think he’s overrated (HEISMAN? REALLY?!?). I never felt like he led Oklahoma in the national championship game.
It's spelled ""S-H-U-Y-O-U-V-E-D-O-N-E-S-O-M-E-N-I-C-E-T-H-I-N-G-S-W-I-T-H-T-H-E-P-L-A-C-E"
Who led Oklahoma?
Anyone? I think maybe it’s just his leading style.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
His leading style is just to be another pawn?
Maybe that’s a bit extreme – he reminds me a bit of Troy Aikman.
Not a bad QB by any stretch, but he arguably had the the best offensive line in the history of the NFL. Most QBs would have had great success.
Oklahoma’s OL has been tremendous. Bradford threw nice looking passes. He’s a good QB, but he doesn’t strike me as a guy on the field that can lead his team to a comeback win – yet.
It's spelled ""S-H-U-Y-O-U-V-E-D-O-N-E-S-O-M-E-N-I-C-E-T-H-I-N-G-S-W-I-T-H-T-H-E-P-L-A-C-E"
I don't understand
Excessive whining from coaches and fans…
Death threats…
Blaming the refs…
Accusing the opposing team of cheating…
Having your University President initiate a letter writing campaign demanding the game be stricken from the record…
This is how you’re supposed to respond to a loss, correct?
If you can't get your Dick Enright, get your Dick Harter
Some Fox ass.
I’ll be really glad when ESPN does these.

Did anybody else hear him a minute ago?
“Not since the Big XII Championship game has Oklahoma faced such an aggressive secondary as Florida’s.”
Well, wasn’t that their last game before this?

Nice catch!
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
I'm rooting for the same team I root for in every game.
Not Oklahoma.

And once again...
A spread offense outsmarts and outplays Baby Bob’s Okie defense.

OU
The reason why I want OU to win is because of BCS perception across the country. If Florida wins, we get to hear about how great and awesome the SEC is, they would destroy USC, yadda yadda. SEC fan will ignore the loss in the Sugar Bowl. The Big 12 will be considered “overrated” because of all their losses in bowls and it diminishes Oregon’s win. If OU wins, it makes the cases of Utah, USC, and Texas all that much stronger for why they should be #1 and National Champions, thus destroying the BCS even further.
Of course, the kiss of death to the team who has the heisman winner….

oh well, what can you do. Grats Tebow. Well on your way to College Football lore

And yet another year, and another reason why the Heisman should be held after all bowls, not before.
2001 comes to mind.

No….
because if they had shut up about that, then it would have also made sense to shut up about “the most accurate passer in college football” (which at least twice was followed by horrendously inaccurate passes, which tends to happen if the defense you’re playing isn’t from the Big 12 South)
Welcome to the Pit!
Look, I rag on Tebow as much as the next guy
But if there ever were a game to give him credit, it’d be this’n.

Huh?
No, I was talking about Mr. This-Year’s-Heisman doing that.

Stoops can suck it
I don’t like the SEC, but I like Urban Meyer way more than Stoops. And Tim Tebow is a beast. They were on fire since Ole Miss.
Glad I watched this instead of the basketball game, unfortunately..
Aliotti is the new Ludwig
I'm seriously considering putting USC as #1 in the Blogpoll...
Both teams were good, but I think that USC would beat both convincingly.

Please vote for Utah, USC, and Texas before Jokelahoma.

Ole Miss can score points.
So I don’t think so.

Unless...
If both Rogers brothers are playing I’d give the Beavs a puncher’s chance against anyone.

Just do it.
