What was TCU and Boise’s schedule like this year?

[gwjack]

An AD/coach schedules for championships. Boise didn’t. They knew the BCS rules before the season began, and chose to schedule creampuffs. TCUs schedule was better, but still not lofty enough to get the slot for the Championship game. If Texas had faltered, TCU would have scheduled themselves for a higher ranking than BSU.

Apart from Boise St. beating Oregon in the first game of the season, they both played sissy schools for most of the season.

Strength of Schedule for the unbeatens this year (out of a total of 120 teams):

Alabama - #1
Texas - #31
Cinci - #45
TCU - #74
Boise State - #83.

Interestingly, only two non-SEC teams in the nation had a tougher schedule than Vanderbilt (the easiest schedule in the SEC.)

Boise beat Oregon, Oregon beat out USC, TCU beat up on Clemson that beat up Miami, Florida State. Come on these two teams deserves better. Boise State can not even find any team from the major conferences to play against team next year. All major conferences are trying to avoid playing Boise.

The big boys won’t play them. Everything to lose and nothing to gain.
