"Ohio State won the national championship in double overtime Friday night [Jan. 3, 2003]. Never before had college football produced a more riveting title game. On this night, the sport could not have been more perfect. And yet, some people believe there is a better way to determine a national champion--that drama like this could be the standard, not the exception."
