NCAA Football 2008-09 Season

With that being said, Penn State beat Ohio State at Ohio State which is a ranked team, they beat Oregon State which beat #1 USC.

Nobody was saying anything about USC when they were winning tournaments, Pac 10 might be the worse conference beside the ACC and Big East.

Don't think for one minute I'm saying the Big Ten has just as hard of a schedule as the SEC or Big 12, but all Penn State can do is play with what is given to them. Until the NCAA makes every conference even like basketball, every conference has a tournament, then there is nothing teams that don't have tournaments can do about it.

IMO the reason they don't have playoffs is because the BCS will lose to much money. If they can have a tournament for Basketball, thy can have a playoff system for football. Until then the reporters and coaches who don't even watch all the games and some computer nerds gets to decide who wins the championship. Let the players decide who wins by playing games.

Well said. :up
 
There are a string of trendy, unbeaten BCS buster possibilities.

Who has the best chance of running the table- Ball State, Tulsa, or Utah?


Ball State, but IMO, none of these teams will remain
undefeated when it's all said and done.

Utah still has #13 TCU and #20 BYU remaining.

Tulsa has Arkansas remaining. Even the worst SEC team has to be better than the best C-USA team, right?

Ball Sate has 4 remaining inter divisional MAC games left, with Central Michigan being the toughest.

Guess I was right.

I wasn't saying anything about Penn State, just saying that since Big Ten teams don't play all conference teams or have a conference championship game, you can have a great season and play no one.

There is also a huge difference in your argument about USC. What has happened on the big stage recently?

USC
2003 - AP National Champions
2004 - BCS National Champions
2005 - lost to Texas and Vince Young by 3 points in the BCS NC
2006 - Rose Bowl Champions over #3 Michigan (who many thought should be in the NC game)
2007 - Rose Bowl Champions over Big Ten #2 team Illinois

That's how you earn respect. On the field.

The Big Ten is 0-4 in BCS bowls the last two years with two NC game blowouts. USC is 4-1 in BCS bowls over the last 5 years with three of those victories over Big Ten teams.

You can't compare Penn State and USC saying it's Ohio State's fault. Yeah Ohio State lost, but Penn State isn't Ohio State, their states just border each other.;)

But in your thinking is that USC should of never went to the championship game because they don't play a tournament, plus almost every team in their conference sucks.

Granted I think Bama will lose a game and TT will probably lose a game, while Penn State should run the table, Penn State should play for the championship, probably against Florida.
 
Penn St. should just hope that that get locked out of the Championship game. At least that way they won't get throttled by Alabama in yet another SEC-Big 10 beat down. :D
 
Something told me that Sabres would be insufferable this week. :)
:up

I tried to head him off with a congratulatory post, but it didn't work. He deserves the moment I guess. :)

But USC plays in a conference where they play every team in the conference (no matter how bad it is this year). They don't need a conference championship game because everyone plays everyone. That's my point. The Big Ten plays eight conference games and there are 11 teams in the conference.
 
Boy I hope my Tigers can get up for this coming Saturday. It will be the ultimate humiliation for me if Saban and those Bummers get a win. The following video (rated R for language) might give you a hint of what I can expect if LSU loses to those hillbillies. :(

I hope they don't "dog LSU's ass, baby." ;)

I don't have a dog in this race, but in my not so humble opinion, Alabama, Florida and any of the top four teams from the big 12 should be in the BCS championship, and USC/Penn State in The Rose. That's based on strength of schedule and strength of leagues. It does not mean that USC or Penn State do or do not have the best team in the country. If TT wins out they're in. If Florida or Bama wins out, they're in.:D
 
Sabres I haven't had a chance to read everything in the thread.

Congrats, I sent you a PM earlier.

Tech is better than I thought.

You were "man enough" to admit Sam and I were right about the Big Least.

I will admit here for all to see that you were right about Tech.

I don't see them going unbeaten or playing for the BCS Championship, but they were a quality team on Saturday night.

Don't know exactly who will get to the BCS Championship Game but I suspect Florida will roll(anybody) if they get there.
 
Got the PM, david. Thanks.

BTW, since you're from the Atlanta area, great wins by Georgia Tech and the Falcons.

I can see a UNC/Georgia Tech ACC title game this year!
