TFoA Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Well now it looks like Houston will be in the drivers' seat for the non-AQ BCS spot.Yep. Boise's loss is Case Keenum & Friends' gain. Only question for Houston is whether or not they can rise up enough spots to get the non-AQ bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew22 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 HUGE win for UGA today. I didn't think we'd win by that much. Crazy game.Apparently I was on CBS during the game. Awesome. Eagles/Heels/Dawgs/Falcons/Hawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEW.ERA Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I think for Houston, they'll need Tulsa to be ranked when they meet at the end of the year, and same goes for Southern Miss in the CUSA Championship. That's probably the only thing that could get them into the BCS top 12. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Hardly a unique position, but that blue turf has to go. It makes the whole operation look bush league.I can't deny it's a tad hokey, but its hokeyness is what makes it perfect for college football. This is a sport that also features the Sooner Schooner and the "Woo Pig Sooie" chant. I think the blue turf fits in. Homer Alert: And let's not forget a giant Buckeye nut with arms and legs.

I haven't seen who Tulsa and Southern Miss have beaten, but both are solid programs and should give Houston their biggest fight.

oddball Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Okay, for anyone pushing for Houston to get into the BCS, you should really check out their weak schedule. I'm all for giving people a chance, but that is if you play someone. Boise State played no one this year besides Georgia and TCU. Houston? Well, if SMU lost at home, they have no shot at the BCS. No New.Era, Tulsa and Southern Miss aren't going to help them. Not only does their weak schedule hurt Houston, but the perception of what Houston really is. The perception (and truth) that they are just a team that runs up scores against lesser opponents to pad the stats of their QB's and when they play someone even middle of the road, you see who Houston really is. Houston is no different than Boise State, just beating up on lesser opponents. If Houston played, Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Nebraska, Clemson, or a few like that, I'd back their cause to get into the BCS. Their only win out of conference versus a was struggling to beat a bad UCLA team. Southern Miss' schedule won't help Houston. Tulsa's may, but if you're actually looking at someone else's schedule to help you, you have no chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While they could be like 2007 Hawaii, the AP will vote them high because coaches do not watch the game and the Harris Poll will follow because that is what they do. UH is two-thirds of the way there.

HedleyLamarr Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Boise State....you're what I like to call "A cute little story".A "cute little story" that beat your Georgia Bulldogs. ZING!!I'll give BSU that, but for all intents and purposes, Boise State's season is over. Unless TCU loses twice, BSU won't win their conference and they'll go to some bowl game played before Christmas. Georgia, however, still has all their realistic goals within reach. At worst, Georgia plays in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl on New Year's Eve. Reach the SEC Championship Game, and UGA likely goes to the Capital One Bowl. The Sugar Bowl is still in play.Who would you rather be right now? Boise State (with nothing to play for) or Georgia (who now looks like they might give LSU a bit of a test)?

HedleyLamarr Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 The funny thing is, now that Boise State's no longer in the picture, this opens the door a little bit for an Alabama-LSU rematch.A lot of crazy things still have to happen, but the big hurdle known as an undefeated Boise State team has been cleared. It'll be interesting to see what happens to Oklahoma in the rankings. They lost at home to a Texas Tech team that lost by 60 at home to Oklahoma State. Oregon currently leads Stanford, too. Maybe that's a rematch that's more feasible.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
