2007 NCAA Football Thread

[Arc-Light]

South Florida 12-0
OSU 11-1
Oregon 11-1
BC 12-1
SEC winner 11-2
Big 12 winner 11-2

WHO PLAYS IN THE TITLE GAME against USF???

Oregon would get robbed if gets left out... that's why OSU needs to lose two... and USF needs to lose at least one... a Pac-10 one loss team deserves to be in there.

Well it sure wont be OSU, Oregon, BC because if you lose late in the season your screwed so if Oklahoma doesnt lose again then it might be them. I am playoff person so all this ranking stuff is stupid.

Why? They are no better than the SEC.

How large a playoff would you like? Because any rational playoff format would have to be 8 seeds max and thus you once again ranking conflicts.

 

[Byrd Man]

Why? They are worse the SEC.

There ya go, Norm. Didn't edit it, I made it better.

 

[Arc-Light]

D-2 does it with no problems. I think the whole system needs to be reworked for it to work. The U's are to greedy for that to happen anyways. The bowl games are big money.

 

[Tangled Web]

Oh, I root for Big Ten teams when they're not playing MSU, and even in the bowls I do.

Even Wisconsin?

I was trying to take personal feelings out of the equation. I am trying to get use to life in Conference USA.


Even though, while my brain is a Knight - I will always bleed Georgia Red.

Fran's a man of taste

Read into that what you will

 

[Tangled Web]

pfft... I guess it's not that intense then.

So easy to solve the problem.... two loss BCS conference winners automatically in the BCS... 3 losses and you are out... and two At-Large Bids...

Fiesta Bowl
Big 12 vs At Large

Rose Bowl
Big Ten vs Pac Ten

Sugar Bowl
SEC vs At Large

Orange Bowl
ACC vs Big East

Final Four

Jan 19/21st

Not to copy basketball or anything... I understand the one day rest is ludicrous... but you really won't be extendeding the season into late January by putting the Championship game sooner than later... either that or convince the NFL to push their Saturday games back to 1:00 and 4:00. But that makes no sense... plus you can't stop playing the big bowl games on January 1st so eliminating lesser bowls is irrelevant... the timing for a final four or at least a plus one would be awful that's why they don't want to do it... plus you devalue the BCS... at least if they add a championship game they can do it the week following the BCS bowls and still finish before Wild Card weekend... it's tricky... but a plus one makes no sense to me either... if Hawaii goes 12-0 then you have to debate whether to put them in slot 4 or slot 5 ahead of a one loss team... it still creates the same problem... so it should be eight way playoffs or nothing.

I thought you'd all figure I was assuming OU and LSU would have two losses... just thought you guys were already thinking ahead when I ranked it that way... obviously not all of us are that advanced though...

Your assumption though is incredibly stupid.

There is no reason to assume LSU (or South Carolina ) will lose another game any more than Cal or USC losing another game. They will both be favorites (or should be) the rest of their games (though I am referring to LSU more than USCar in this statement).

The same will be true for Oklahoma.

 

[cookiva]

Why would you assume that a team will lose a game, when they are favored in the rest of their games??? I understand that there have been alot of upsets, but if you are a betting man, and you bet only on the upsets, give me a call. I would love some money.

That isn't the point. It is just that I assumed that you guys would assume that I had already looked at the BCS standings and knew that OU and LSU are the best one loss teams... you pretty much assumed I was a dumbass to begin with... thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt... I am just making a joke about is so don't get too worked up... I am just going to be frustrated if OSU gets it over Oregon or Cal... that is exactly what will happen... say what you want about the big ten... its vastly overrated... thats why a pac ten needs OSU to lose two and USF/BC to lose one... with the other obvious upsets along the way.

 

[cookiva]

For a conference to be overrated, there must be people saying that they are a top conference. Ask anyone. Nobody will tell you that they are a top conference.

The Big ten right? Cause the Pac ten is a lot better IMO.

 

[cookiva]

Are you serious?? Yes, we were talking about how the BIG TEN is overrated.

say what you want about the big ten... its vastly overrated...

Did you not say that in the post above mine????

Well... I guess that was a case of me being a dumbass for real this time.

Big Ten is better than Pac Ten

 

[cookiva]

Big Ten is better than Pac Ten

Except that its not, and that is coming from a Michigan guy. Despite USC being overrated, the Pac Ten is still better than the Big Ten.

 

[Immortalfire]

Pac 1 is more like it, maybe Pac 2.

 

[FaT_tONle]

Pac 1 is more like it, maybe Pac 2.

FOur teams have been in the top ten... nuff said... SEC is still the best no one denies that so don't get all riled up.

if Pac 10 and Big 10 had a tournament...obviously Big Ten would win...
I wanna hear one good reason why u think Pac 10 is better

my reason...Michigan Ohio State Wisconsin Penn State Indiana Michigan State.....urs?

 

[cookiva]

Thats a horrible way of looking at it. The Big 10 has had 3 teams. The Pac 10 only had 3 teams as well.

 

[LegendaryCaleb]

3 teams have been in the top ten... nuff said... SEC is still the best no one denies that so don't get all riled up.

we've had 3 teams in the top ten too.....lol
