1. I think Cal bounced back reasonably well from their awful performance against Oregon, they were just outmanned.
2. Auburn is for real.
3. Next year is Boise State's year for a legit title run, barring every other team in the country losing two games they have no shot. But next year they return twenty starters and have two OOC games against what should be very good teams from BCS conferences (Va. Tech and Oregon State).
4. Miami and Oklahoma are both not very good.
5. The Big Ten is awful. See Iowa barely beating Arkansas State a week after crushing PSU. OSU looks to be trending up though (So long as they get rid of Pryor).
6. The SEC has two top 10 teams this year, the Tide and the Gators. But they might just be the top two squads in the country.
7. BSU is lucky they got Oregon week 1.
8. Notre Dame is looking at 9-3 with losses to USC and...Stanford.
9. The only legit team in the MWC this year is TCU.
10. Texas isn't that good. I think they lose two game in the regular season.
11. The Big 12 is probably tied with the Pac-10 for second best conference.
12. Virginia Tech and the ACC as a whole are frauds. Isn't that the Duke team that lost to Richmond?
13. LSU is gonna prove a lot of people, in a bad way.

I did not know Boise State plays Virginia Tech next year. Virtual home game for Virginia Tech, last time BSU went on the road versus a major opponent it didn't wind up too well for them (stomped by Georgia between the hedges). That should be a great game though. My major beef with the non-BCS teams is that they don't schedule anybody pre-conference (and I know the argument about it being a lose-lose for a major conference team, but that's obviously being proven false), it's good to see teams like BYU and BSU trying to buck that trend. If you want to be able to say you deserve to play for a title, you have to play some solid teams outside of your conference.

VT was bound for a let down game...and the score to that game was much closer than it actually was. In fact we got the passing game together a bit which is a positive moving forward. When you play Alabama, NU, and Miami in 3 out of 4 before hand and head down to Durham it's going to be a let down [especially with a young team].

We lose virtually nothing next year as long as Worilds stays...Boise will be in big trouble. Last time we played in DC we had USC on the ropes til a completely horrible phantom offensive pass interference call. Carroll called it the loudest environment he's ever been in. We're loud when we fit 65,000 in at Lane. When we go 100,000+, we'll be giving Boise nightmares.

Proggy you are way too high on the Pac-10. That's soft football all the way around outside of SC.

ProggyMan 10-05-2009 08:24 PM

Something tells me you haven't seen UCLA, Stanford, Arizona, Arizona State, Oregon, Oregon State and Washington play.

IamAlejo 10-05-2009 10:12 PM

I've seen all those except Arizona and Stanford play.

ProggyMan 10-05-2009 10:55 PM

Ok, explain how they're soft.

I think Alabama and Florida are the best teams in the country. Hopefully they run the table and meet in the SEC championship AND BCS Title game. This would require no other team but them to run the table either(save boise/tcu). We'll see.

ProggyMan 10-14-2009 08:09 PM

Nah, USC gets in against the loser if they win out.

and that would be bull****e

ProggyMan 10-14-2009 09:53 PM

Why? USC's schedule would be twice as difficult as Florida's.

tell me. how would USC's schedule be twice as difficult as ANY team in D1. You can't quantify a schedule. SEC > PAC10 anyways

Lol, Sagarin disagrees.

I really can't say I'm suprised that the BCS is still on SC's dick after getting routed. There are some teams that sports writers and voters just don't want to see fail, even if they're failures.

Srs?

Five undefeated teams and a 1-loss Florida entering the bowl games. So, who is the best? Apparently 'Bama, but do we really know that?

Then the BCS cops out and puts TCU and Boise against each other. It should be TCU/Florida and Cincy/Boise. Isn't that the idea, give them a shot to show they can play with the big boys? Stop ****ing protecting Florida!!

I was going to quote a few things from you, because there's so much lulz and you are oh so bad at calling college football, but this sums it up.

Hmmmm, a lot of people have been saying similar stuff. At first thought, I think it's a great match up. I think either team could beat Florida, and they are a better test for themselves than anyone else. I'm pretty damn stoked about watching the match up, but I get where you're coming from.

debaserr 12-07-2009 04:12 PM

want to buy: 8 team playoff

No doubt a sweet matchup, but not happy with it. TCU beating Florida handily will go a long way for dispelling the myth that they can't match up with Big 6 teams. TCU beating Boise will not have a large impact on the minds of voters- they'll say it's a quality win against another team in a weak conference. Plus, if TCU were to shellack Florida (a common opponent with 'Bama), and either Texas or the Tide unimpressively beats the other- there could be a shot at a split national championship (albeit a small one). Scheduling it the way they did is basically them saying they will continue to **** on the mid-majors' credibility, while not giving them a chance to establish one.

USC was better than Oklahoma and USC was my only bad call.

ProggyMan 02-03-2010 08:31 PM

Wow...Late surge by USC, according rivals (Most reliable so far as I can tell) they're number one now.

debaserr 02-03-2010 08:55 PM

lane kiffin just gave me another reason to dislike the trojans.

ProggyMan 02-03-2010 09:00 PM

On the bright side Cal and Missouri both just signed their best classes since I've been alive.
