College Football 2013 Season

[Boris Godunov]

Speaking of Fiesta Bowl, looks like that will be Oregon v. K-State. In other words, "The Title Game That Should Have Been..."

[-Jrabbit]

They should rename it the Self-Inflicted Depression Bowl.

Already applied to the Las Vegas bowl.

It's not going to hurt a little even a little to see a team you beat win the Big Ten championship and go to the Rose Bowl?

Karmic for what?

Maurice Clarett, that bull**** pass interference penalty on Miami in the 1st OT of the 2003 Fiesta Bowl, basically everything about that lucky-ass 2002 title run. Karma plays the long game, *****, and it's fitting that Sweater Vest got a rousing tribute for his one tainted title on the same day his chickens came home to roost.

One of the greatest calls in history by the trade publication of college football refs. If it was PI, it was definitely defensive holding. Not only that but what is Nebraska paying for given their lengthy mediocrity.

Utah State, Tulsa and Middle Tennessee have fewer losses than TCU. Of course, you only count the BCS teams, which a year ago, would have pissed you off if someone else had done that.

Run the table vs their conference, like Boise and TCU in years past, then we talk.

Utah's last bowl appearance in 2011 was with 6 losses. Awbrun, BYU, Fresno, Louisiana Tech, Colorado State, and Ohio.

This is the first time they've been good - with losses to BYU and Wisky. Zero ranked teams. TCU's beaten three ranked teams, West Virginia, Texas and Baylor. They've not lost this season to an unranked opponent. Iowa State was ranked 25 after beating TCU.

37 teams have fewer loses than TCU, so, by your logic, TCU should be, at best, 38th.

I'll have to see what the computer polls have to say.

[Ben Kenobi]

24 TCU A = 81.11 7 4 76.23( 19) 0 1 | 2 3 | 80.60 27 | 81.28 26
25 Utah State A = 80.81 10 2 64.01( 97) 0 0 | 1 0 | 79.67 29 | 81.67 25

Sagarin polls say that TCU should be ranked.

ELO has them behind Vandy, Northwestern, Washington, and San Jose State. So they are all right in the muddle of the end of the rankings, along with Arizona, Arizona State, Baylor, Clemson and West Virginia.

Utah State beat #20 Louisiana Tech, so you are wrong again.

Utah and Utah State aren't the same team.

I'm going by your total loss record for ranking teams, nothing else.

The AP ans USA today polls agree with me, USU is #20 in the AP and #22 in the USA Today. Guess where TCU is?

ACK!

[Ben Kenobi]

with losses to BYU and Wisky

That would be Utah State. Do you not know your own team?

Utah State beat #20 Louisiana Tech, so you are wrong again.

So, what. One ranked team? TCU's beaten 3 now. And where is LA Tech now? Bueller, Bueller? Baylor just took down the number one team in the nation.

The AP ans USA today polls agree with me, USU is #20 in the AP and #22 in the USA Today. Guess where TCU is?

And the computer polls agree with me, with TCU at 24. As they should be. Even AP has TCU at 28.

Anyways, TCU has Oklahoma at home. If they can polish off Oklahoma, they'll be ranked again.

1997.

Exactly; a play as lucky as the Flea Kicker racks up a pretty big cosmic debt. Probably still worth it in retrospect, however, given that lucky-ass play allowed us to ruin both Peyton Manning's final season and Michigan's one national title since our grandparent's era.

And the BCS agrees with me. USU is #24, where is TCU?

You brought up Utah's last bowl appearance, not me.

ACK!

[Imran Siddiqui]

Son of a *****!

I thought that THIS would be the year Rutgers would not lay an out of nowhere turd against a conference opponent in the last month. Grumble, I guess Kyle Flood is subject to the same looking too far forward that Greg Schiano was.

[Ben Kenobi]

Seriously, you don't know your own team. This is right off the Aggie's page. 1-6 in bowl games. Haven't won a bowl in 40+ some years, and only once made it to one in the last 20 years after going 6-6.

TCU was making bowls every year for about 5-6 years.

Such a simple thing that you can't comprehend, it's amazing you're a teacher.

Utah's last bowl appearance in 2011 was with 6 losses. Awbrun, BYU, Fresno, Louisiana Tech, Colorado State, and Ohio.

They, coincidentally, also ran the table vs. their conference.

ACK!

[ColdWizard]

Great news, everyone. Word has it Tulane will join the Big "East".
