What I would like to see is these teams win:

USC
Iowa
Nebraska

I think Iowa and Nebraska have the best shot at winning, SC needs to find a way to slow down that Oregon Offense, they can hang points on the Ducks, but if it ends up a shoot-out, Oregon comes away with the win.

Why? Cause the lower ranked teams gives Boise a better chance at a title? :laugh2:

I suppose I should go with the same since it would help TCU. :)

That is why I'm pulling for USC, Iowa and Nebraska. Only way Boise gets their shot at the NC is by these teams losing. Boise is doing everything they can on the field but they can't control the computer.

At least 2 undefeateds falling, likely Michigan State and Missouri.

I would not overlook USC they may not be bowl eligible but they still have a lot of talent on that team and a young QB who is coming into his own.

Problem with Boise going for NC is that they would be destroyed by LSU, Auburn or Alabama, two of which have one loss. They are not really in the same league as those teams.

A one loss SEC team is usually better than Boise State.

Yeah, we know just like they were going to be destroyed by OU, and destroyed by Oregon, then TCU was going to crush them, and finally they didn't stand a chance against VT either. Only team in that list that has beat them is TCU.

Wasn't Bama supposed to crush Utah as well? I don't think you can out of hand dismiss Utah, TCU or BSU anymore. I like BSU's chances this year against anyone.

Maybe so but I would like to see them get their chance. Boise had held up well vs good teams I have no reason to think they could not put up a fight vs any team out there.

I expected a better win from Boise State. A 29 point win is good, but giving up 20 is not. They should have had a better showing than that. Especially if they want to win a championship.

But..But..


Boise State is an unsheathed Dragon of AWESOMNESS laying out unbiased devistation through the divisional powers of the NCAA. The Broncos are on the way to save the kingdom from tyranny, unfairness and the evil Dark Knight BCS computers. They will push the mighty universities before them and laugh at the unwillingness of those that do not partake in the greatness that is BSU. The Bronco winged death proves their prowess week in and week out against the mighty foes of Fresnopia, NewMexicanosians,Sacrementoeians and the 9 hr jet-laggians of Hawaiiopia. :eek:

The awesome Draconic Bronco is wreaking fear amongst de'countrysides and burninating all of the peoples and their thatched roof cottages....THATCHED ROOF COTTAGES!!!!


When the burninator has forsaken the countrysides of these far away institutions of closely guarded talent.............. that nobody knows about..........................................only one guy will remain....

I'm just curious -- what makes everyone think Boise State is not that good?

They beat a Rose Bowl team last year in Oregon, and they pretty much have everyone back from last year's team that lost zero games.

Nobody is saying they aren't good. Last year was last year btw. This year is this year.

Most of us just want them to play "SOMEBODY", this year.

I dont think anybody on here thinks that Boise is a bad team, we have had a lot of discussions regarding Boise and their schedule and where they fit in the scheme of things. At this point it is more of an inside jab than anything else. I laughed when I read Dallas's post and I was tongue in cheek in my reply since the topic has been discussed ad naseum.

I suppose Oregon State (3-1 in the Pac-10) and Virginia Tech (4-0 in the ACC) is not "somebody."

Two power conference schools.
