    Yeah, but Oregon is really fucking good this year.

    Why should TCU and BSU not get two at-larges? They both go undefeated, they should both be top 10 in the BCS standings. Honestly, I don't know why the ACC gets an auto-bid over the MWC. Yeah, FSU fucked up BYU, but that was an anomoly.

    not saying that Boise and TCU shouldn't get bids if they go unbeaten. But they won't. Look at last season. Boise beat Oregon — at Oregon when the Ducks were ranked 12th — and finished the regular season unbeaten. Utah got the BCS bid and Boise got the Poinsettia Bowl.

    One non-BCS team will get a bid. the only way to get two is if both go undefeated and have at least two, probably three, tough non-conf. games against BCS schools.

    I know.

    I know.

    It's too bad we don't have Collin here to tells us why these teams don't even deserve to be in the BCS in the first place and how it gives us a true champion.

    Cincy goes undefeated and they still don't play for a title either.

    How is VaTech ranked 4th? If they played in a good conference I could understand.

    The 4 wins? New Mexico, Tulane, Rice and Sam Houston St. The first three are somewhere in the 115-120 range for all 1-A teams. OU wasted them 45-0.

    That said, it's harder than people think to win on the road. On ESPN. In the rain. But still, it's Tulsa.

    BTW, I think I would've blown a gasket after that lass Tulsa TD if I had taken Boise.

    Okay, now they are 4-2. They still beat those teams. I'd say they are a solid team, not a great team. That doesn't make them weak.

    The Duke team the Hokies struggled against lost to Richmond and its three wins were against Army, NC Central and State. Kansas beat Duke 44-16. No way in hell VaTech deserves to be number 4.
