bigmike Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I think it is hilarious, but I hope Cam isn't suspended or anything because I want Alabama to be able to beat Auburn with him playing. Not saying they will beat them but victory would be so much sweeter if he is playing QB for them. Check out my new NFL 2016 Series! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJMorris3 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Though I have to wonder, why anyone cares about the 13th-best team in the nation being Oregon. Any SEC team would rout them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJMorris3 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Regardless, Oregon is not an elite team like an Alabama or an Auburn or an LSU. You hold elite teams to a different standard. This is why the NCAA needs to not punish Auburn for this like USC got punished. Auburn is an elite team, USC was not. There's a difference.

infrared41 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Yes, I know, my reputation makes me a hypocrite for telling willmorris to stop posting, but every time he pipes in with his "SEC or nothing" crap, I feel my brain cells slowly start to die.Your Boise State dribble has the same affect on me.No kidding. Here's a guy who's been a Boise State fan for about a week yet he acts like he grew up next door to the blue turf, attended Boise State, and ended up getting a job as groundskeeper on campus after he graduated. No offense Lights Out, but your "passion" for Boise State always comes across like you're overcompensating for the fact that you latched on to these guys when they started getting good. I won't call you a frontrunner but you're about as close as one can get without being one. Dial it back a couple notches and people will take you more seriously. Right now you sound like the dude at 2 am who's trying to convince himself that the chick that looks like Abe Vigoda is "cute" in the right lighting. And to think willmorris (who's still an idiot) calls me the homer in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are either: "Tammy", "Shane from Centerpoint" or are not really a SEC fan, but an east coaster who has no team to root for (XM 202's "Blowhard").

knnhrvy16 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I have a random question, something I've been thinking about for a bit. Say a team like Navy goes undefeated, does their status as an independent help their BCS chances, or hurt them? I ask because obviously, they've consistently been a solid team for the past few years, and I always wondered how far they could go if they broke out one year and went undefeated. The question could really go for any independent though, save of course Notre Dame because we've already seen them go to BCS bowls. Could an undefeated season vault a Navy or Army into the title game, or just a BCS bowl, or not even that? The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They fall into the same non-AQ teams and conferences. To even be eligible for a bid, they would have to have at least nine wins and finish in the top-14 in the final BCS standings.

Lights Out Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 you latched on to these guys when they started getting good.I've already mentioned that I started rooting for Boise State after the '99 Humanitarian Bowl, when they beat Louisville. Hardly when they started getting good.Regardless, I won't talk about them as much anymore. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They beat BYU in the Liberty Bowl. In that first BCS year, the bar was so high for a non-BCS conference school to qualify that Tulane didn't stand a chance because of its "soft" schedule. That has changed (with doors having been opened to the Cincinnatis, Utahs, TCUs, Hawaiis and Boise States) thanks, in part, to Tulane President Scott Cowen's rampage against the BCS earlier this decade.....
