He makes perfect sense. LSU, Arkansas, Alabama, Stanford, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Iowa, Mich State are all undefeated with Boise State or TCU's schedule. But if you flipped that, and made BSU/TCU play those schedules, they lose 1, at least.



you could add 5-8 more schools that would go undefeated with Boise schedule. Okie, Okie State Nebraska are 3 right off the bat. Boise/TCU are .500 teams in the SEC West for sure, maybe 5-3 or 6-2 in the east

Nebraska lost to Texas.

Okie struggled with AF who TCU pounded.

MO beat SDSU by less than TCU did.

BSU had the summer to plan for VT and then took the next week off. This is the exact thing that people point to because it's true.

Take BSU schedule this year and make them play VT, Oregon State, Nevada in a row and then see if you are 3-0.

You do realize your entire team is 1 deep, right? You played with the big boys, and those first string players would get hurt. Who's able to back them up?

No one.

Are players are bigger, stronger, and faster. If you don't realize that we have more injuries than you, then I can't make you understand. B

That's the difference from our conferences and whatever the hell yall play over there.

They also might play against 4 future NFL players all year. SEC, Big 10, Pac 10 teams face 5 or 6 each week.

but they can do things like not struggle to beat horrible non-BCS teams or have to come back and win late against mediocre BCS teams (VT)

they DO have that opportunity


Wait a minute. San Diego State is a horrible team? Virginia Tech is mediocre? I mean, honestly, if Virginia Tech is mediocre and is going to run through the ACC undefeated then that should tell you right there that Boise and TCU could very well play in a BCS conference and go undefeated.

Baseless? If a team goes 11-1 with a schedule strength in the top 20, it is only logical to assume they would go undefeated with a schedule strength in the 60's+

They just don't seem to understand this.


Here's why we don't want Boise and TCU in.

Frustration. Period.

We have to deal with Bama, AU, Arky, UF, UGA... every damned year. We get injured and lose one game and we're out. We're playing against guys who will be in the NFL one day. Hell, it's a minor league NFL.

We're frustrated that we have to go through that every year, yet you dicks think you can walk through the WAC undefeated and just step into a NC game. Sorry, but you can see where we're comin' from.

Nice get frustrated and start calling people you dont have to stand toe to toe with names. Classy.

TCU and Boise should immediately call tOSU and ask them to schedule a series of games for the next several years. The call should be recorded and the posted when tOSU cowardly refuses.

And going through your conference undefeated and having no shot at your sports national title is what? More or less frustrating?

1. Why would OSU in their right minds play them regular season? BS and TCU are good teams. Never said they weren't. But why add one more good team to your schedule when you've already got 7?

2. Really??? You're gonna come at me for name calling?

3. I'm all for a plus one. until then, I don't think BS or TCU should play for a NC. But, I say TCU before BS if it happens.

When your school is not in a BCS conference, less. Much less.

I'm sure it may be frustrating, but that doesn't mean it isn't fair.

Hopefully that will change.

However, I would like for BS or TCU to join a major conference. Yes, I know it's hard, but I would "like" to see it happen.

I agree that we need a different system, but as it stands now, and with the current sytem, they don't deserve to get in over a lot of teams.
