Ok TCU supporters let's hear it... I get tired of hearing people defend why TCU should be ranked higher and should be in a BCS game.

When you have a schedule that looks like the one they have played you are lucky to be ranked in the top 25.

Tulane (W 38-35)
Navy (W 17-3)
Vanderbult (W 30-14)
Arizona (W 13-10)
Army (W 27-0)
South Florida (W 13-10)
UAB (W 27-24)
Houston (W 62-55)
Louisville (W 31-28)
Cininnati
Southern Mississippi
Southern Methodist

The only arguement they're going to have is if the rest of the 1 loss teams lose. And I'm seriously wishing for this to happen. Down with the bcs! The system is flawed, will always be flawed no matter how many tweaks they make (and they have made them every year since it's beginning)! A playoff is the only way to truly define a champion. Look at it this way, without a playoff, Syracuse wouldn't have won a championship in basketball. The BCS may have actually worked somewhat before the NCAA implemented the 85 scholorship rule. But now teams are so even anyone can win on any given weekend. And on a closing note, every college fan should watch OU atleast once this year. In this day and age it is rare to see a school that much more dominant than any other team in college. It's like watching a pro team line up on a saturday. God I hate admitting that.

The BCS has it's flaws, but it is a whole lot better than what we used to have......idiot sports writers with their biases as the only means of ranking teams? No!

IM with tou elevation, but I still think those idiots have too much say! Im on the west coast, I'd like to get credit for beating the teams in my confrence, but since none of them ever get ranked we have no shot in hell even if we go undefeated, wich we won't cause all the teams in the pack ten jack eachother up. Records don't decide who the best team is. I say they make a play off with the reps from each confrence and a few wild cards from the minor confrences. Then we can see who the real winners are. Until then, Dogs like Nortre dame will always be ranked and Cal and stanford will never recruit players! Meanwhile, the florida states and the Nebraska's can suck year in and year out, lose all thier core to the draft and start #1 next year. And why do they rank the teams BEFORE the season! WTF is that?! Tulane is the chiefs of the BCS, only not as good. They play weak teams and go undefeated. We have no idea how good they are do we? But we would see it when they get crushed by oaklahoma in the first round of the playoffs!

There is always some substandard school (not that I am saying TCU is) every year that goes undefeated with a weak schedule for 8 weeks or so, before getting knock off by a non-powerhouse.

Good riddens, I couldn't omagine the ass beating that they would'v taken had they gone to a BCS bowl.

Southern Miss. did TCU a favor yesterday by beating them, just think of what Georgia, LSU, Michigan, Texas etc. would do to them.
