 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
Those polls don't matter. This one does: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/rankings?pollId=2Texas stays at 3, Florida moves up 2 spots, which will help. Now we wait for the Harris Poll.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
I know they aren't the final ones but they play a part in the BCS final. Don't remember if both going in at 25 % each ( / by 4 ) or only 1 of them for 33.3 %. ( / by 3 )

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
Both go in.
2 human polls. 5 computers.
But it's 1/3 for each human poll, and 1/3 for the 5 computers together.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
I just heard Brad Edwards saying that Oklahoma being #1 in Coaches Poll only helps Texas's chance (albeit small) of getting BCS 2 slot ahead of Florida.
Alabama should have dropped below Penn State.

Alabama should have dropped below Penn State. If Texas can stay ahead of Oklahoma in the Harris, Texas WILL get in with Oklahoma.

Anyone watching the JMU/Montana game? I'm watching in spurts. Not too bad so far.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
I don't think Utah gave up more than 20 points to anybody all season. I haven't fact checked but I'm somewhat confident in that. They did take care of 3 top 15 teams and 1 other top 25 team. One of those teams was ranked #1 for a period of time as well. Being the only undefeated after that one can't at least not acknowledge that they deserve discussion/votes for a #1 ranking.
I'm so angry and disappointed and embarassed for the big 12 South teams so far. Texas Tech and OSU getting blown off the field was just embarassing to me. I hope and pray that Texas and especially Oklahoma do their job and win to save face for the conference and it's reputation.
Penn State was such a disappointment against USC. Were they as much a joke as Alabama was? That was just a poor excuse of a game and let Mark Sanchez look like Sam Bradford of all QBs. Sickening.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
Utah gave up more than 20 points 6 times. The highest was Oregon State with 28.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
I think Utah proved again the problem with the current system. They got screwed because they aren't in a big conference.

That is true, but unless there is a playoff, Utah doesn't deserve to play in the national title game. Alabama was around the same level as Penn State. Good, not great, and overrated all year long.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
Once again proof that the current system sucks. Go Utah!!! Best teams should get the best games. End of discussion. Whoever wins the National Title Game shouldn't be considered the best team in the country unless they beat Utah.
Had Utah lost everybody would have held that against Non-BCS schools. Now that the opposite happened it should provoke the opposite reactions. But the "elite" schools will defend their system. Keep other schools down.
If you want to be the best school in the country, beat the best schools. That's what everybody says to the likes of Boise and Utah. Well I'm saying that to Florida and Oklahome

I've said they were the best non-bcs school since the beginning of the season. And if you want to whistle, Boise State lost and BYU lost (to Arizona of all teams), so munk, don't pick and choose.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
Boise lost, but not to a BCS school. They lost by a point to a school that finished second in their division behind the best team in the country.

Utah couldn't do anything else to get that shot and they beat a very good Alabama team, I think they could beat either Oklahoma or Florida.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
Is it just me or does Pryor not want to get hit?
He keeps running OB WAY earlier than any other player would. Not even attempting to get the extra yards.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
Texas completely abandoned the run.
All Texas needs to do is stop Wells, Pryor will choke it away if they do that.

 Re: 2008 College Football Dicussion
I noticed Pryor trying to not get the extra yard by taking a hit, but he is a qb, why would he want to get hit?
Even though I picked OSU, I think Texas wins by 20.

Each year, one non-bcs school does get respect. Utah did get respect. There should be a playoff but saying that Utah should have been in the national championship is just utterly ridiculous.

Even though I picked OSU, I think Texas wins by 20. Because it's a huge game where every yard counts. From what I've seen all season from him, he only plays for himself.

God I can hardly wait till Fox loses the BCS. They are awful. Screen freezes at least twice a game, halftime show is garbage, and I don't like the color man.
