NCAA Week 8

[chuckleslove]

What a stupid ass **** last play by Oklahoma, they are down 9 and are going to do all the lateral bull as if a touchdown makes any **** difference? I'm irate over their decision to do that all that could possibly happen is you end up with an injured player on one of the teams.

Chuck, public perception has been against the BCS for years. No pundit likes it. The tide couldn't be stronger for a playoff system. It's not happening. Boise vs TCU accomplishes nothing.

It doesn't accomplish any immediate change but I think it certainly helps the process of moving closer towards a playoff system.

I know very well how much the public outcry is for a playoff system. I've been a huge college football fan for almost 20 years now and as a whole like college sports more than pro sports.

I'm all for the little guys getting a shot at a title, but I don't think I'd want to see Boise v. TCU. I'd rather Boise (or TCU for that matter) take on one of the major conference teams.

[ReasonablySober]

The problem is no one remembers anything. The current BCS deal goes for years. When it runs out no one will remember BSU vs TCU.

The issue is money. Always has been. A lot of key people are making money hand over fist with the current system. The ironic thing is schools and conferences could be making a lot more if they follow the plan laid out in this book.

In terms of an actual game I agree, I just recently rewatched the BSU vs OK Fiesta Bowl from 2007 I think it was and that game was exciting and awesome. My BSU vs TCU scenario is just to stick it to the idiots in charge of the BCS.

Yeah I had a friend who was in Arizona during the Fiesta Bowl and bought tickets from a scalper right before kick off. He said it was the best game he's ever been to.

My sports law professor, who is a bit of a BCS expert, is predicting a TCU/Boise championship. I was pretty surprised by that.

I don't think TCU vs BSU is going to happen.

I think Oregon is going to run the table in a mediocre Pac 10 and then you still have Missouri, Auburn, and Michigan St. that are undefeated not to mention any number of 1 loss schools in a BCS conference could surpass those 2 in standings by the end of the year. I think the chances of one of them making it is unlikely and the chances of both of them making it is almost non existent.
