“The BCS is run by P*SSIES! They put these teams together because they knew they would both wipe the floor with whatever big conference school they were matched up against.”

Wow, what a rational, non emotional analysis.....NEVER allow facts to get in the way of blind unfounded boasting.

Let’s see...these two “undefeated teams” from weak sister conferences would TROUNCE the big boys:

TCU beat WEBER STATE by 7 points....there that PROVES they would KILL Alabama...They beat Air Force by 3...Yes, they beat Wyoming by 35, but BYU beat Wyoming by 52 POINTS !!!! TCU beat Clemson by 4, while middle of the pack SEC team South Carolina beat them by 17.

Boise State beat TULSA by 7..oh how impressive that is...and they beat LA Tech (who has 8 losses) by 10, while New Mexico State with only 3 wins this year beat LA Tech by 38 POINTS..!!!

I ALSO wanted Boise and TCU to have to play REAL competition in the bowls so all those cry babies who claim that these teams that go “undefeated” in these WEAK conferences could “wipe the floor” with the big conference schools would be brought back down to REALITY rather than living in a dream state and never looking at the STATS before making silly boasts.

Because we don’t have a playoff, I guess we’ll never know. Maybe the small schools would win, maybe not. The big schools would probably win most of those matchups, but don’t tell that to Georgetown and Villanova. BTW, how did Alabama do in their bowl game vs. a small school last year?

So in effect, you agree with those who are complaining that Boise and TCU are playing one another, just for the opposite reason.

This is why I wish they were playing other teams. Not because I KNOW how it would turn out, but because one way or another it would end the discussion. Either Boise/TCU would win and gain new respect for non-conference teams, or they'd get crushed and we could stop whining about undefeated teams with weak schedules.

This, of course, is why the “weak sister conferences” are 3-1 in BCS games.

Looks like you ought to check the stats yourself.
