If Notre Dame wins out and beats USC and Arkansas wins out. You're telling me Notre Dame is better then Arkansas? I dont think so.

BCWWF 11-19-2006 12:24 PM

No, not at all. But if USC wins out and so does Arkansas, than USC will have the advantage because USC beat Arkansas. If Notre Dame wins out, then they are both 11 win teams, and most people would agree Arkansas is the better team.

Also, can I just say how crrazy it is that we are talking about Arkansas for a national title right now. They weren't even ranked preseason. Good for them, that's sweet.

RoXer 11-19-2006 02:02 PM

All I know is USC has to beat UCLA and Oregon St. has to beat Oregon.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-19-2006 02:15 PM

Just aslong as ND doesn't make the National Championship game I'll be happy. I'd like to see Florida vs Ohio State, I think that'd be the best match up.

Still got a feeling ND is gonna fucking sneak in tho

Arkansas can still loss a game and make it to the SEC championship game right? Cuz if they can, then they go on to beat Florida in the SEC championship game and ND beats USC. I'm seeing ND in the game even though Michigan would be getting robbed.

BCWWF 11-19-2006 06:09 PM

Does Michigan have any more games? I thought yesterday was their last, and if it was, then I really don't see Notre Dame sneaking in. If Michigan has another game and loses it, then maybe, but nobody is going to vote an 11-1 Notre Dame team in above an 11-1 Michigan team, when Notre Dame lost to Michigan and Michigan lost to the nations best team.

So basically, I am hoping Notre Dame doesn't get in too, but I don't see that being likely.

Right now, I think this is the order of teams most likely to be No. 2:
1. Michigan
2. Florida
3. USC
4. Arkansas
5. Notre Dame

I only say Michigan because they are still No. 2 in the BCS right now, so something big would probably have to happen in the SEC title game to get them over.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-19-2006 07:38 PM

Michigan/Ohio State is always the last game of the year for both teams.

Arkansas has to play LSU this Saturday and could very easily drop that game but I think they would still be in the title game wouldn't they? Since they are currently undefeated in the SEC. So say that happens and then they beat Florida and ND beats USC it SHOULD be Michigan but will it? I really don't know, ND could riding the hype machine right into the National Championship game (where they will probably lose by 20 points)

No. USC will gain points by beating ND.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-19-2006 10:34 PM

How is ND ahead of Arkansas in the top 25?

RP 11-20-2006 03:47 AM

The SEC title game is locked. Arkansas vs Florida. No matter what happens in the LSU game.

Forget about Notre Dame, if Notre Dame gets in over Michigan, reguardless of whether they beat USC or not, this whole things is completly fucked up once again and deserves no attention whatsoever. Notre Dame can not possibly get in over Michigan. That would be the supidest thing ever. Not after Michigan crushed Notre Dame.

USC however, could sneak past Michigan with a win over ND, if the BCS points work out that way.

Arkansas could also sneak past all of them if they win out. It happend like 3 years ago, i think it happend to USC. USC played there last game and LSU snuck in because they won the SEC championship ( extra game ).

I dont care how much talk this shit generates, its stupid. Someone is getting screwed reguardless. Its just fucking stupid.

BCWWF 11-20-2006 04:39 AM

If Arkansas ends up losing to LSU but beating Florida, they are still out of the game. They have to win out to have a chance, so does Florida.

I agree with RP, Notre Dame should under no circumstances get in over Michigan, and I don't think they will.

RP 11-20-2006 04:47 AM

If Rutgers beats WVU, they're probably still in a BCS game, but i'm not sure cause there some rule where if a mid major ranks top 12 in the BCS, they get a automatic bid into a BCS game. That mid major would be Boise St. Who is the only other undefeated team on the year.

Arkansas obviously has to win out to have any shot at the NC title game, which brings me back to my original point. If ND beats USC, Arkansas wins out and theirs no possible way ND should leap frog Michigan, then it would be Arkansas or Michigan right??

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-20-2006 10:03 AM

Yeah the Big East champ has a BCS game no matter what, so if they beat WVU they would have the head to head againest Louisville and WVU so they'd be in.

Did they add another BCS game for this season? I thought they did for some reason so now there is 5 instead of 4. Cuz if not, theres gonna be Michigan, ND and Boise St all eligable for at-large bids and the old system only had 2 at larges

Supreme Olajuwon 11-20-2006 01:06 PM

Yeah there's 5 games. The Fiesta Bowl and the BCS Title Game aren't the same thing even though they're played in the same place. So it's those 2 plus the Sugar, Orange, and Rose like normal. I dunno how the at large thing is gonna work this year because the Big 12 and ACC are fucking up the rankings. The way things are now it looks like Wisconsin is gonna play in a BCS bowl which I dunno how that could happen but whatever.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-20-2006 01:14 PM

Big East (Louisville probably since WVU is gonna beat Rutgers I think)
ACC (No clue..probably Georiga Tech)
Big 12 (Texas probably)
Big 10 (Ohio State)
Pac10 (USC)
SEC (Florida or Arkansas)

At large
Norte Dame
Michigan
Boise State
And probably gonna come down to loser of the Arkansas/Florida game or Wisconsin

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-20-2006 01:15 PM

Hopefully its BC playing in the BCS game as the ACC representive though..still got an outside shot at it

RP 11-21-2006 02:22 AM

I could be totally wrong here, but theirs some rule that says if team like Boise St gets the top 12 BCS, they get a automatic bid and if the ACC team has 4 losses and still win the conference, they get there BCS bid taken.

Again, i could be wrong, but i swear i heard something like that.

Again, i could be wrong, but i swear i heard something like that.

One conference champion from among Conference USA, Mid-American, Mountain West, Sun Belt, and Western Athletic Conferences will automatically qualify to play in a BCS bowl if it is: (1) ranked among the top 12 teams in the final BCS Standings; or (2) ranked among the top 16 teams in the final BCS Standings and ranked higher than the champion of one of the conferences whose champion has an annual automatic berth in a BCS bowl

Just read that online, I don't think they take their place. I think you are thinking of the rule where if the conference champion finishes out of the top 12 in the BCS 4 years in a row that conference loses its automatic BCS bid.

BCWWF 11-21-2006 05:12 PM

Would that theoretically mean that if Boise State could finish top 12 in the BCS for three more years then the WAC could become a BCS conference?

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-21-2006 05:16 PM

I don't think thats in the rules and I don't think it should be either.

Since it would just be one team winning it every single time.

Totally forgot about this when I posted (but got reminded since Wisconsin took a bowl bid) but only 2 teams from one conference can play in the BCS (Michigan and Ohio State will be doing that from the Big 10)

BCWWF 11-22-2006 10:37 AM

Wisconsin has got to be one of the lesser 11-1 teams of all time, but I think the Capitol One Bowl against Auburn is pretty much set for them, isn't it?

It's surprising how many sub-500 teams the Big Ten has. The Big 12 has Texas, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Nebraska, Missouri, Texas Tech, Kansas State, Kansas and Oklahoma State all eligible.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-24-2006 01:22 AM

BCWWF 11-24-2006 07:00 PM

Jesus, what a day in football...

Texas loses to A&M (YES!)
Arkansas loses to LSU (Damn, they were a fun cinderella team)

So still in line for No. 2: Florida, Michigan, USC, Notre Dame

I really think that regardless, if Florida wins the SEC they should be in.

RP 11-25-2006 01:41 AM

I was really hoping for Arkansas to win out and fuck everything up. O well.

It seems like we're doing this every week, but here we go again.

If Notre Dame beats USC, and Florida loses, its gotta be Michigan. Because Michigan crushed Notre Dame.

If USC beats Notre Dame and Florida wins.. I dont even know. I was really clouded with the thought of Arkansas winning it all. I looked at Florida's schedule and immediatly thought of how impressive it could look if they win out and win the SEC championship. Victorys over LSU, Tennessee, Georgia and potential wins over Florida St ( Huge rivalry game and FSU's defense is one of the best in the country ) and Arkansas, thats impressive to me. Compared to UCS, whos has wins over Nebraska, Oregon, Cal and potentially Notre Dame. I dunno. It's a toss up. Probably USC, but not by much. Michigans big wins...Notre Dame and Wisconsin. Everything else wasnt that impressive.

This is going to be ugly

RP 11-25-2006 11:18 AM

I heard a great conspiracy theory. If Nevada beats Boise St. today, they stand to lose atleast 1.1 million dollars for the athletic program, because that would knock Boise St. out of any BSC contention. So people are wondering if Nevada would throw the game.

I personally dont think that will happen. Infact i think Nevada will win outright.

BCWWF 11-25-2006 11:41 AM

In all honesty, I don't think you can tell a Div. 1 football player to blow a game. Those guys work way too hard to step aside for a monetary issue. If Boise State deserves the 1.1 million, they will beat Nevada.

McLegend 11-25-2006 08:26 PM

O my USC looks like they are gonna blow out ND here

BCWWF 11-25-2006 08:38 PM

Yeah the first couple drives make me root for USC again. I stil llike Florida the most, but if USC get in I won't complain. They really have created a sweet atmosphere in LA.

Joey Slugs 11-25-2006 08:39 PM

SOUTH FLORIDA?

BCWWF 11-25-2006 08:42 PM

I had never even really heard of South Florida until this year, but they seem like a pretty cool team. I'd like to see them become a player in the Big East. What does the Big East championship look like now? Is it Rutgers?

McLegend 11-25-2006 11:46 PM

Yeah Clearly USC is a class above Mich St.

But still ND had so many chances to keep it close or go a head. Still USC is the better team by far.

Louisville if Rutgers loses to WVU

Splaya 11-26-2006 02:03 AM

So even with the win over UCLA that could happen next Saturday, do you still reward the Trojans. Or do you give Michigan their rematch? I'm a huge Michigan fan but I said USC had to blow Notre Dame out (which they did) and they have to beat UCLA.

It's gonna be interesting to see what the BCS rankings are today. I do not feel though, that USC will be above Michigan yet.

BCWWF 11-26-2006 02:38 AM

I don't get why Florida is out of the question (at least in minds like Splaya's).

Auburn > Oregon State, and Mighigan already had their chance and blew it.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-26-2006 03:53 AM

Norte Dame is so overrated, 2nd time they played a top level team and they were never really a threat to win.

I was simply pointing out that ND was behind big in a game this year and found a way to come back.... and shit.... they had their chances last night.

dablackguy 11-27-2006 03:14 AM

I'm sorry, but this is BS. USC should NOT be ahead of Michigan in the BCS. How does USC lose to an unranked team (Oregon state) yet still get ranked higher than Michigan. Meanwhile, Michigan loses to the best team in the country in a game that they were competitive in. You can make the argument that USC won more games against ranked opponents but in my opinion that loss to Oregon State hurt them.

It seems that very few people want the rematch, and I agree. But the rematch features the 2 best teams in the country. in my opinion, USC doesn't belong anywhere near a championship game.

BCWWF 11-27-2006 03:19 AM

I never thought Michigan was any better than USC or Florida, the only difference was that they played a schedule that allowed them to remain undefeated the longest. Florida is the second best team, in my opinion, and I would like to see them have a shot.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-27-2006 05:12 PM

Michigan beat Wisconsin and ND, two top 10 BSC teams. I dunno their schedule really wasn't THAT easy. I am getting kind of tired of all the SEC stuff, yeah the SEC is harder but its not like the other conferences out there are cake walks or something. Its not like Michigan played in the WAC or something, they played in the Big Ten with their only loss coming to the #1 team in the nation.

USC, Michigan and Florida all have legitimate claims at the #2 spot, but only one of them will get it. Way to go BCS

BCWWF 11-27-2006 07:24 PM

If that is in reference to me, I don't think Florida should get a shot just because they are in the SEC. I just think that Florida, USC and Michigan are all a toss up. I personally think USC is the worst of the three, and I just don't care to see a rematch. This is just so stupid.

Supreme Olajuwon 11-28-2006 10:36 AM

Florida screwed themselves over by not only scheduling a 1-AA team at the end of the year, but a terrible 1-AA team as well.

USC beat FOUR teams in the BCS 25. And whoever said they should be punished because they lost to Oregon State should look at the BCS standings too because the Beavers are on it.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-28-2006 02:53 PM

Do you really think Florida is better then USC? I don't know man, they've struggled the last few weeks and those impressive games againest teams like Alabama, Georgia, FSU and Auburn don't look so impressive now. I think people forget that USC dropped 50 points on Arkansas, I don't want to hear it about Arkansas's tailback not being 100% USC didn't even have a returning tailback (Loss of Bush and White?) or a quaterback (BCWWF, you didn't even know who their QB was after he dropped 50 on Arkansas) Personally I fucking hate USC, but I think its either them or Michigan.

BCWWF 11-28-2006 09:24 PM

USC struggled against team's much worse than Bama, Georgia, FSU and Auburn though. And to say that USC beating Arkansas was a big game is a huge overstatement. Arkansas wasn't even on the map at that point, and had a bunch of injuries. I just picked Florida at the beginning, and I still like them. I don't think they will get it though, at this point I would be shocked if ti wasn't USC.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-29-2006 12:41 AM

Had a bunch of injuries? A lot of people say they have the best 1-2 combo in the nation and their injuried tailback still had almost 60 yards rushing in the game :-\ Arkansas wasn't on the map yet because people didn't realize how good they where going to be, that doesn't mean they weren't good at the time. I guess right now you could say the 2 teams are equal if you look at them head to head, I think a lot of traditionally good teams being shitty this year is hurting Florida though (like Georgia, Bama and FSU...Auburn isn't exactly lighting the World fire either) USC has the Oregon State loss too though so I dunno. After watching both teams I think USC would be a better match up. I think Tim Tebow is a homo (I hate home schooled kids)

If anyone should be bitching though, it should be Oklahoma, especially if Oklahoma wins the Big 12 Championship.

BCWWF 11-29-2006 01:51 AM

Yeah when the Oregon thing happened, I thought it didn't matter because I expected the Sooners to have maybe a 9-3 record at best. They definitely did get screwed in the long run, although they clearly aren't on the level of USC, Michigan and Florida, IMO. Texas was the best team in the Big 12 and they blew it because of injuries late in the season. Especially without Adrian Peterson, I don't think Oklahoma is even top 5 in the nation, despite their record.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-29-2006 10:27 AM

Yeah if they handle their biz they will still get a BCS bowl, but you never know if they went into the last week with only 1 loss who knows what people would be saying now.

BCWWF 11-29-2006 11:04 AM

Yeah, also sucks for OU because Texas definitely is going to be back next year. OU vs. Boise State in the Fiesta Bowl probably, not quite the natty champs.

Following teams get screwed: Wisconsin, Arkansas and Louisville to an extent.

Wake Forest vs LSU Orange bowl

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-29-2006 01:10 PM

If people where seriously talkingabout Arkansas for the National Championship game (before their 2nd loss) even though they lost by like 40 to USC, I bet people would be talking about Oklahoma being deserving of a shot since they only had one 7 point loss to Texas.

Maybe not though, since Wisconsin was never even mentioned in the title game situation.

The Capital One bowl is basically going to be another BCS Bowl game though, Wisconsin vs Florida or Arkansas

Joey Slugs 11-29-2006 02:41 PM

The best bowl game might be the Capital One Bowl on Jan. 1st.

Wisconsin v the SEC #2

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-29-2006 02:54 PM

I'm looking foward to Boise State going up againest Oklahoma. Last time I remember them being a tough oppopent like Oklahoma they got destoried (@Georgia)

BCWWF 11-29-2006 08:34 PM

That is because Wisconsin clearly isn't on the level of Michigan or Ohio State. A great team, of course, but they didn't have the toughest schedule this year.

Also, if Florida isn't in the BCS game, aren't they obligated to be in the Sugar Bowl? I think the Sugar Bowl would shit a brick if they gave up an SEC team for an independent and a Big East team.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-29-2006 10:24 PM

They might give up their chance for a SEC team if they can get Norte Dame

The Sugar Bowl gets the SEC #1.

Whoever that may be.

The Big 12 bowl situation is all fucked up now, because the Gator and Sun Bowls have weird plans where they don't have to pick teams and what not, so it looks like we, an 8 win team, might be going to the Insight Bowl to play a 6 win team. We should be in the Alamo Bowl, at the worst the Sun Bowl, but the way shit works out, Insight Bowl might be ours. Meh.

Supreme Olajuwon 11-30-2006 10:39 AM

Why does the ACC #3 play in the Gator Bowl and not the #2? That doesn't make sense to me.

BCWWF 11-30-2006 11:14 AM

The Gator Bowl is super fucked up. This isn't the whole scenario, but part of it.

In the next four years, it has to choose a Big 12 team twice. When it does, it will be Big 12 #4 I believe. It does, however, have a one time clause where it can jump ahead of the Cotton Bowl and take Big 12 #2. So this year, if the Gator Bowl was smart it would jump in and take Texas, but it will probably be stupid and take one of the Big East team's since this is as good as that conference gets this year.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-30-2006 12:40 PM

ND is lucky they have so many fans, right now they are eligable for a BCS game but aren't guaranteed. I personally don't think they deserve a BCS game, the 2 games they had againest other BCS teams they got their asses handed to them. Since they travel well, and their fans get the most hotel rooms, buy the most merchandise they'll be in a BCS game.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-30-2006 12:43 PM

I find it funny that Miami is playing Nevada in the MPC Computers Bowl in Boise, Idaho. It just doesn't seem right.

BCWWF 11-30-2006 03:41 PM

Is that for sure? If so, Miami on the smurf turf is going to be weird.

BCWWF 11-30-2006 03:44 PM

Also, there are more deserving teams than ND, is Rutgers beats UWV, then Louisville is getting screwed. Can't you only have two teams from a conference? If so, Arkansas and Wisconsin are getting screwed.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-30-2006 03:46 PM

Yup its a fact, accepted yesterday. Nevada's offense is crazy too, I think they call it the Pistol or something. QB in a short shotgun with a the tailback lined up behind him like in the regular I. Looks real weird

Jesus Shuttlesworth 11-30-2006 07:06 PM

LSU is playing in the Rose Bowl, still a rumor I guess but its pretty much a given now

BCWWF 11-30-2006 11:46 PM

Yeah, I think it is pretty much

Ohio State vs. USC in the Nat Champ
Michigan vs. LSU/Florida in the Rose
Oklahoma vs. Boise in the Fiesta
SEC Champ vs. Notre Dame in the Sugar
ACC Champ vs. Big East Champ in the Orange

RP 12-01-2006 02:12 AM

UCLA UPSETS USC THIS WEEK. MARK IT DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 24-21 UCLA.

BCWWF 12-01-2006 02:17 AM

What do you think would happen if USC did lose? Florida or Michigan?

RP 12-01-2006 03:28 AM

Michigan

Joey Slugs 12-01-2006 03:33 AM

LSU going to the Rose?

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200...ose/index.html

RP 12-01-2006 03:47 AM

How does LSU jump Arkansas or Florida, especially Florida if they lose.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 12-01-2006 10:30 AM

No clue, maybe because they travel well?? Makes no sense to me, figured Arkansas and Florida would both the 2 teams getting BCS bids out of the SEC. Now if Florida loses they are out of the BCS, wow.

BCWWF 12-01-2006 07:28 PM

I am kind of expecting Arkansas to get blown out.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 12-01-2006 11:45 PM

Actaully LSU beat Arkansas right? I guess that's why

I dunno, kinda fucked up. Why don't they just wait and see what happens in the SEC title game and then decide?

RoXer 12-02-2006 04:46 PM

DO IT UCLA

RoXer 12-02-2006 07:34 PM

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA RUSH THAT FIELD BOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYS

McLegend 12-02-2006 07:35 PM

UCLA is gonna win

Skippord 12-02-2006 07:37 PM

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

INT

RoXer 12-02-2006 07:48 PM

HAHAAAAAAAAAAA I LOVE IT

I love when people talk about BCS games and their matchups with like 5 weeks left and the games haven't even been played yet.

Betcha Florida loses too (probly not) to really fuck us up

BCWWF 12-02-2006 08:04 PM

That wouldn't fuck it up at all, because Michigan would be the only other team. It is going to be interesting to see how Florida and Michigan are placed next week. Also, if OU beats Nebraska pretty handily they should be ranked No. 4 after this week.

BCWWF 12-02-2006 08:07 PM

Also, this is the best Big 12 Championship game matchup since OU and K-State in whatever year that was. The crowd is big, two programs great for traveling are there, and it looks like this years game is sold out. I don't think CU and OU sold out two years ago, when CU got blown out. They should keep the Big 12 championships in Oklahoma City and Kansas City though, it's stupid to have stuff in Dallas when those two cities are right int he middle.

BCWWF 12-02-2006 08:12 PM

HAHAHA, fuck you Huskers. Cool that they tried something cool on the first play, glad it got canned though. This should be Mizzou vs. Oklahoma, we fucked that up.

HAHAHAHA, Purify just fumbled and OU has the ball on the three after ONE play.

Splaya 12-02-2006 08:18 PM

I never didnt think Florida couldn't be in the national title game, I just think they are grossly overrated.

I'm so glad that UCLA won though.

BCWWF 12-02-2006 08:20 PM

How are they grossly overrated though? I mean unless you think the whole SEC is overrated.

Crimson 12-02-2006 08:45 PM

UCLA shoulda been cheering to lose..now they'll have that shitty coach Dorrell for another season, lol

Splaya 12-02-2006 09:32 PM

Flordia has terrible management of the clock. Leak is so overrated. The defense is terrible. And if you say that Florida losing to Auburn a better matchup of Michigan losing to OSU, you are on crack.

BCWWF 12-02-2006 10:00 PM

Michigan's only loss was to the best team, but on the same token, Florida beat a lot more good teams than Michigan.

That isn't the important thing though. Michigan has already showed that they can not beat Ohio State. If Michigan beats Ohio State in the BCS Title Game, who is the national champions?

Nervous Ferret 12-02-2006 10:03 PM

Here we go Rutgerssssssssssssssssssss
