Sure wish Boise State and TCU would play again this year.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Nebraska is an interesting team. After they beat Texas this week, all they have to do is get past OU in the Big 12 championship game to finish undefeated. Do they then deserve to play for the national championship?

If both OU and Nebraska are undefeated going into the Big XII championship game, the winner of that game will get heavy consideration for the BCS championship game. I don't think it is going to happen. One or both teams will have a slip up along the way.

They were talking about this last night on ESPN and it is all over the Blogs, but the preliminary BCS ranking has Boise State at #1. Here is a link to the ranking. http://bcscentral.info/bcs_rankings.html

Curious what you guys think other than the obvious OU homers... :laugh2:

No. Why would it?

Boise State sucks. Pretenders! :

 

[Rynie]

I just have a feeling that Nebraska is going all the way this year...(homerism)

 

[Cythim]

Considering they are missing a set of computer rankings, I don't see how the "preliminary BCS rankings" are relevant. ESPN is just trying to stir the pot.

 

[VirusX]

Go Buckeyes!

 

[casmith07]

Alabama got jobbed, in my opinion.

lol @ Boise being top 3.

I hope Boise plays for the national championship and the game is a monumental embarrassment for them.

 

[Concord]

Go Buckeyes!

...O-H

Easier said then done when you have a Freshman QB.

He's an X factor every week. Kid is amazing though.

How did Alabama get jobbed?

Every year Boise is supposed to get embarrassed... somehow they find a way to win. LOL at those who are still so blind they cant see beyond their bias.

Every year? They seem to swap victories with TCU. If they played this year, guess who's turn it is to lose.

Not to mention even last year on the field TCU kicked Boise State's ***, but like the Cowboys have done this year it didn't reflect on the score board when it was over.

1-12 on third down
32 yrds rushing with 1.8 yrd average
10 points scored
TCU had the #1 ranked defense
They were heavily favored in that game.

How exactly did TCU kick BSU *** again? TCU isn't near as good this year as they were last year, and I think BSU is better, I don't think it would be close this this year.

TCU was better last year and I've said that several times already.

TCU lost that game because Dalton had a brainfart of a game. Yet he still threw for 277 yards.

You and I both know Andy Dalton is a much better QB than he played in that game. Take back any one of the INTs and Boise State probably loses that game and you know it. (1 was returned for a TD, the other two were in the red zone) TCU didn't need 3rd downs to move the ball on Boise State.

If Andy plays his normal game, Boise State was blown out. Just be glad you won, cause it shouldn't have happen. Even all the talking heads (Lou Holtz and all the others) even said TCU outplayed Boise State in that game

Good thing they didn't need any of those 3rd downs to win that game.. oh wait minute.... Couldn't have been that Boise defense had a good game, Dalton just had a bad game. OK. Your right, Boise sucks.

 

[casmith07]

Boise doesn't have a single quality win on their schedule this year and won't have one by season's end.

They should not be 3rd.
