The College Football Thread 11/29 - 12/1

Recommended Posts

Since someone will ask pretty soon, the BCS Selection Show tomorrow is at 8:00 PM EST/5:00 PM PST on Fox.

 

I would love it if Virginia Tech got in over LSU. That would blow the 2001 and 2003 fiascos out of the water.

I think if Mizzou loses you have to put LSU in the title game with OSU. They demolished the Hokies 48-7 earlier this year so you can't really justify putting VT in the title game ahead of them. Also, Kansas and Georgia didn't play their conference title games so I just don't want to see a team get into the national title game through that route. Plus, both of LSU's losses occurred in 3 OT's this year.

 

Hell, I say if Hawaii wins tonight just throw them in the damn title game. It's been that kind of year anyway and if they get in then we can preserve the illusion that a two loss team won't be playing for the national title.

Well if this doesn't lead towards the creation of a playoff system I don't know what else would. It's pretty funny, though, that a two loss team could end up at national champions while Hawaii could end up undefeated and not even play for the title. Yea, I know their strength of schedule wasn't that great and they struggled against San Jose State but they've played their schedule and haven't lost.

Other potential big winner tonight is Illinois as they will move into the Top 14 with the BC and Tennessee losses and now could be Ohio State's replacement in the Rose Bowl. That would also bump Michigan from the Champs Sports to the Capital One Bowl.

Why LSU and not Oklahoma?

So unless the Tigers rally, it's going to either be a two loss Georgia, a two loss LSU or a one loss Va Tech from the ACC which looked like a steaming pile of crap all year long?

 

Not Kansas though, they don't have a name so we can cross them off the list. And the Rose Bowl match-up of Ohio State against USC just went up in smoke as well.

 

Thanks alot for choking West Va.

I think that absolute tankjob against Colorado should take them out, hopefully.
