I'd think it should be though. They have been top 10 almost all year.

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 10-30-2006, 11:41 PM

Yeah but they are pretty low in the BCS I thought, like a lot of 1 loss teams ahead of them. Not the case with WVU

**BCWWF** · 10-31-2006, 12:40 AM

Maybe, I guess I never looked closely at BCS. I haven't looked at the rankings much this weekend either, since we fell out, I am too pissed.

**The Outlaw** · 10-31-2006, 12:48 AM

Yeah, WVU is at #3 and Louisville is #5. Whoever wins that game will be #2 and whoever the winner is of OSU/UM will be #1. Florida is at #4.

Louisville is #5 in the BCS Rankings? For some reason I thought they where like 7 or 8

Nevermind then, if Louisville wins out they'd probably be in though, since they'd have victorys over West Virgina and Rutgers (never thought I'd say that)

I dont think they've beaten Rutgers yet. I'm pretty sure Rutgers is still undefeated.

RP · 10-31-2006, 12:47 PM

Yah, they play Louisville thursday. Shoule be interesting. I'm rooting for Rutgers to beat the Cardinals and WVU, just so we can all sit back and see if Rutgers gets to go to the National Championship game. Personally, I think those two wins, plus the Pitt win, are pretty impressive.

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 11-01-2006, 04:49 PM

Yeah I know they didn't play yet, that's why I said "If Louisville wins out"

Tomorrow nights game is gonna be sick, I'm gonna have a shitload of work to do though so that kinda sucks. Can't even get it done tonight either, since it all has to do with some stupid health fair thats going on tomorrow.

**The Outlaw** · 11-01-2006, 07:53 PM

DONT SLEEP ON BOISE STATE

Haha, nah, sleep on em. If Bush was healthy and Brohm was completely healthy I think Louisville would take it easily and play OSU in the title game. They are bad banged up, but they got em at home. Gonna be the best Thursday night game of the year no doubt.

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 11-02-2006, 07:21 PM

5 minutes til kick off...gonna be sick

Louisville rocking all black tonight

**BCWWF** · 11-03-2006, 03:11 AM

Didn't watch the game, but for some reason I have always liked Louisville. What really sucks is they don't have the running back, Bush I think. Barring a Rutgers upset of Louisville, the BCS Title Game is due for controversy this year.

Ohio State and Michigan are going to be 1 and 2 and Louisville 3. Either the voters will keep Michigan in there after they lose, which would be highly controversial on two fronts. One because Louisville will be undefeated, one because Michigan will have just lost to Ohio State. If Michigan loses and Louisville makes it though, the Big East bashing is going to come back to kill them.

I don't consider Louisville anywhere near Ohio State though. Big Ten teams are so big on the lines, it seems like Louisville is based more on talent and speed, areas that Ohio State doesn't slack in.

**BCWWF** · 11-03-2006, 03:12 AM

I honestly can't say who the second best team in college football is right now. I mean Michigan is great, and undefeated, Louisville is undefeated in a surprisingly decent Big East, and then Texas has been playing great, and Florida and Auburn. It will be a good stretch.

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 11-03-2006, 12:01 PM

Louisville and WVU defenses don't exist

Take away that one bad punt and this game would have been totally different, I don't know, I wasn't as impressed with Louisville as everyone else was.

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 11-03-2006, 12:13 PM

If Louisville ends up playing Ohio State in the National Championship they will lose by 2 TDs atleast

**BCWWF** · 11-03-2006, 07:14 PM

Really, the only fair national championship would be Big Ten champ vs. SEC champ. Maybe Texas, if they are really impressive, but no.

**KingofOldSchool** · 11-04-2006, 03:00 PM

Jesus Christ, Michigan almost lost to fucking Ball State.

**Kris P Lettus** · 11-04-2006, 03:47 PM

To The Outlaw:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Yall lost to State at home??

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Bear Bryant rolled over in his grave..

LMFAO

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 11-05-2006, 01:48 AM

Any team with a QB named "John Parker Wilson" is a team I'll be rooting againest

BC lost tonight tho

I fuckin KNEW they would blow it somewhere, had a chance of playing in the ACC Championship game.

**Kris P Lettus** · 11-05-2006, 08:13 AM

Good SEC games on yesterday..

LSU and Ark was outstanding even though I hate both of them..

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 11-05-2006, 02:40 PM

The last team to sweep the media panel voting was Oklahoma on Nov. 30, 2003, the week before the Sooners lost the Big 12 championship game to Kansas State.

-- CBSSportsline, talking about how Ohio State recieved all the votes for 1st place in the AP Poll

**RoXer** · 11-05-2006, 03:23 PM

Wow, UA beat Wash St.

**Nervous Ferret** · 11-05-2006, 10:58 PM

Rutgers/Lousiville THURSDAY NIGHT WOOOOOO

Rutgers has got to win unless you wanna see a shitty national title game

**DrA** · 11-06-2006, 12:28 AM

Louisville will probably get screwed out of the national title game if they win anyway.

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 11-06-2006, 12:36 AM

I hope Rutgers wins and goes undefeated, then I hope they beat somebody half way decent in a BCS game (They will probably match them up againest a non-BCS conference at large bid though, just like they did with Utah vs Pitt so when Utah beat Pitt that year nobody really cared)

**Supermark101** · 11-06-2006, 01:32 AM

If Rutgers goes undefeated, they will most likely play the ACC champion in the Orange Bowl. Here is how it works.

The champions of selected conferences are contractually committed to certain bowls, unless they are No. 1 or No. 2. (ACC: Orange; Big Ten: Rose; Big 12: Fiesta; Pac-10: Rose; SEC: Sugar).

If a Bowl loses a host team to the title game, then the bowl gets first choice at a replacement team. The rest of the selection order is as follows: Sugar, Orange, Fiesta.

Notre Dame earns an automatic berth if it is in the top eight of the final BCS Standings, while non-BCS schools can earn bids if ranked in the top 12 of the final BCS standing.

http://www.sportsline.com/collegefoo...ls/predictions

Notre Dame will be the first at-large team taken, by the Suger Bowl. Rutgers gets picked up by the Orange, and Boise is left for the Fiesta. If Boise loses, then I could see Rutgers falling to the Fiesta. They would play Texas there, unless they are #2.

I would love to see Rutgers beat Louisville. That would make it that much easier for a one loss SEC team *cough* ARKANSAS *cough* to make the NC game.

Yeah what are you talking about BCWWF? They definetly are

**BCWWF** · 11-06-2006, 03:17 PM

They try to do that still, like people freak out if the Rose Bowl isn't Big Ten vs. Pac 10, but they aren't contractually obligated to it. They used to be, not anymore.

Well if that game is the BCS Title game, then they aren't contracted to do it, outside of that though they are. Unless the #1 team from the Pac 10 or Big Ten is playing in the BCS title game, then I don't think they have to take the #2 team from the conference - but I'm not totally sure about that.

**BCWWF** · 11-06-2006, 11:29 PM

Based on what Supermark posted, I am wrong. I was under the same impression he was but the other day our lead football writer told me that it isn't like that anymore. That the BCS still tries to get the conference to the traditional bowl, but that it's not guaranteed. I asked again, specifically if they were contractually obligated, and he said no. That's why I posted it. I am kind of surprised that he would be wrong, but the info posted seems to say that he is.

**Supermark101** · 11-07-2006, 02:59 PM

This is hilarious.

Apparently, an Alabama fan is selling his SEC CG tickets on eBay. Note the question asked by an Auburn fan, and the seller's response:

Q: i am an huge Auburn fan. You have no problem selling them to me do you?

A: Not as long as you don't have a problem watching Arkansas play Florida.

I LOVE IT

http://cgi.ebay.com/4-2006-SEC-CHAMP...QQcmdZViewItem

**The Outlaw** · 11-07-2006, 04:35 PM

Bah, we are reloading. The loss was disappointing but college football isn't my life lol. I was offered a free good ticket and I had a bad feeling so I turned it down, glad I did. We wouldn't take Nutt if you paid us to take him.

I dunno, I don't see how Arkansas is going to beat LSU and UT. Or really 1 of them. I don't see how ARK is doing so well. They beat us by 1 in double OT because of 4 missed field goals and an PAT yet they beat Auburn by 17 at home? I dunno, I'm not sold on them quite yet although McFadden is the best RB in the nation.

**Supermark101** · 11-07-2006, 05:23 PM

It's destiany my friend. Auburn is OVERRATED. Bama has a good stot at beating them.

Our secondary scares me against UT. We'll play more zone, and be fine. UT's front 7 is banged up. They gave up 259 yards rushing to LSU, we'll go for 300. Gameday will be there. The Crowd will be insane.

We play LSU in Little Rock. LSU's QB plays awful on the road.

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 11-07-2006, 06:25 PM

Watching ESPN Classic here, Michigan has Tom Brady, Dahani Jones, Ian Gold, Cato June, Javon Walker and Anthony Thomas and they are 'bout to lose to Penn State to drop to 3 loses on the season. How the fuck did that team have 3 loses?

I guess we'll see. Just pray that McFadden doesn't get another bar fight.
