2009 NCAA Football Thread: Revenge of the Computer Polls

[Go Web Go!]

A couple of pretty nasty blocks on that Miami kick return. Not to mention some Hester-like evasion. The guy was surrounded by 7-8 Virginia players.

[Mister J]

Way to go, Navy.

I read some article earlier this week about the BCS officials keeping their eye on Notre Dame (Zeus knows they'd get invited if they qualified). Thankfully, that's over.

i hear you man

bad day for Boise state

[Mister J]

They'll totally discredit Boise State now that Oregon got beaten by ...Stanford. I wouldn't be surprised if the Broncos dropped again.

Speaking of BSU, this is amusing and pathetic at the same time.

Boise BCS Blocked

it wouldn't be as bad if Boise St. was demolishing all their lesser opponents, that Tulsa game will stick with the pollers for awhile. I still think we could get 2 at large bids for the BCS bowls this year between TCU and Boise. I seriously doubt the Fiesta Bowl picks up a Big 12 team, unless *knock on wood* it is texas. And the second team goes to the sugar

Also I can't believe Notre Dame has their own BCS rule

The Pac 10 is a conference, like the ACC, SEC, Big 12, Big 10 and Big East. A team's schedule is largely composed of teams from that same conference.

The BCS is a (piece of trash) system that takes teams from those conferences above and uses a number of composite ranking to pair those teams off into high profile bowl games, one of which being (what's supposed to be passed off as) a National Championship game. It gets more involved, but that's the gist of it.

When you hear someone talking about a team 'making the BCS' or 'playing ina BCS bowl' they're referring to the likelihood of that team being selected/qualifying for one of the five major bowl games.

BSU could run the table 41-0 every week and they still wouldn't sniff the BCS title game unless everyone else had 2 losses. Even then, it'd be a stretch.

The fact that they can't get a top caliber opponent to drop some early season home game with a patsy and play them is ridiculous. Another example of college football's exclusionary and political BS.
