Not to mention Mizzou taking out Oklahoma.

If Boise isn't #2 now, we'll know the fix is on.

Nebraska receivers would get open (and by open, I mean wide open), the pass would be a little off target (i.e. catchable, but not in stride) and the receivers wouldn't make the catch. The happened about a half dozen times and at least once in the end zone.

The fix is on. It's been on for years. Boise will get leapfrogged by other undefeated teams each week, eventually they will start getting leapfrogged by one loss teams like Alabama and Nebraska.

I'd love to see Boise or TCU or Utah in the BCS Championship game, but the system is set up to prevent that.

The only team that would leapfrog BSU this week is Auburn...because they put up 440 of offense on the best defense in the SEC and beat a top 10 team.

Sure, it's Auburn this week. Next week it will be some else. If Alabama or Nebraska win out I bet that they will also leapfrog over Boise.

Nebraska should have won the game. turnover that led to the Texas TD hurt plus Nebraska had like three dropped touchdown passes in the game.

How many top ten teams has Boise beaten this year? None. How many will they beat this year? None.

Ah. But the B(C)$ elitists would point out that VA Tech is now #21 in both polls and #23 in the B(C)$ rankings, so that doesn't count.

So far they have beaten 1 - Virginia Tech. The problem with beating a top 10 team is that they often fall out of the top 10 after they lose.

Also, since Boise already has two BCS bowl wins decade, it is reasonable to assume that they could do it again. That could give them two wins against top 10 teams this year.

They lost to one, but that just proves they have a tough schedule and should be ranked high. :lol:

:blah:

Both of you rags are just trying to get me pissed, I can see that. But I won't. Know why? Because Ohio State plays in a better conference than Boise. 3 teams in the top ten, yeah they really suck. Please.

It will be Oregon vs Auburn in the Chipper. Boise will settle for a "lesser" BCS game since they can't be in the Rose Bowl.

There are only 2 Big 10 schools in the BCS Top 10 (the only measuring stick that matters). #6 Michigan St and #10 Wisconsin.

Ok I read the wrong poll since the BCS one is full of shit. In the coach's poll, the people who actually know the teams...MSU is 5, Wisconsin is 9 and OSU is 10.
