re: Put Boise State and TCU in the SEC

I think you need to go back and look at there schedule the last few years. You are smoking rope if you think they have played a tougher schedule than us the last few years.

First off, take the time to read my post. This year, TCU has a more impressive schedule (& wins) than Tex &, obviously, much more impressive wins than LSU. And Boise beat TCU.
Both of these teams have been doing it for years. Maybe the schedules haven't always been more impressive, but that's not their fault.
This year, there really is no question that either of them would be the 3rd best team in the SEC and the best team in some BCS conf. To say that their not both top 5 caliber teams is foolish.
What 5 teams in the country are better than TCU or Boise? (I'll give you UT, Bama & UF)
It's hard to find 5 in the entire country this year. To say they would be middle of the pack or lower in the SEC (which has 3 ranked teams) is just dumb.

Get over it. Both are solid teams that did what they needed to do this year with much less money than LSU. We (LSU) would lose to either team if they played today despite our superior athletes. You don't win 12 and 14 by being a bad team.

Boise also beat a very solid Oregon team, they definitely could have beaten a sloppy LSU team.

If you are trying to discredit BSU's win 3 years ago, OU was was still the Big XII Champs. I would consider it a good win.

I guess I don't understand the fascination with tearing them down, a team with a small athletic budget from a small conference (budget) in a remote part of the country. Good for them.

Tall order. These ignorant jerkoffs don't know how to do anything other than talk out their arse.

And if you're not ignorant like they are, they act like you're the dumb looking one...

Anyone else see the irony here?

the bcs should have pitted Boise State against Ga tech and TCU against Iowa,,,,they both may have won but at least in a vast majority of peoples mind seeing them compete on a national stage against top tier competition would have elevated their status

Clearly doesnt know anything about football...

Agreed.They both would do ok but would not hold up to the week in week out tough schedule.

Boise's my least favorite team in college football, for a few different reasons. They sicken me.

That said, saying they wouldn't even make a bowl in the SEC is hilarious. I do think, though, that they'd only finish something like 9-3, maybe even 8-4.
