WAC coaches pimping votes for bowl money?
The Blue-Gray Sky takes their annual look at how the coaches voted in the final USA Today Coaches poll and concludes that -- once again -- the nation's college football coaches have no shame.
Among the findings... homer bias.
- Coaches still rate their own team about 2 1/2 spots higher than everyone else, just like they did last year.
- Conference affiliation meant much more this season, as coaches rated teams from their own conference over two spots higher, up from only one spot higher last season.
So who are the biggest offenders? The coaches in WAC are big-time homers, slanting their conference's teams by five spots.
The WAC pushed hard to get Hawaii into the BCS, with WAC coaches bumping the Warrior's ranking by over five spots. Not stopping there, they also boosted Boise State's ranking by an average of 4.8 spots. Only Dick Tomey of San Jose State was closely in line with the majority of ballots; he boosted Hawaii and Boise State by more typical numbers (+2.9 and +1.3 respectively).
The WAC coaches consistently ranked Hawaii in their top five and put Boise State into their top 20.
In other words, the WAC coaches -- on average -- ranked UH ahead of #5 Virginia Tech, #6 Southern Cal, #7 Missouri, #8 Kansas, and #9 West Virginia.
Are you kidding me? If you take Jeff Sagarin's ratings for comparison -- and I do, because Sag is the only guy in the BCS getting paid to accurately model future matchups -- Hawaii finished the season with a predictor rating of 79.67, or 30th best in the nation.
So who would Sagarin's predictor favor over Hawaii? Here's a quick sampling:
- UCLA
- Utah
- Penn State
- Michigan
- Tennessee
- Illinois
And - as you might have guessed - every one of the actual top five teams that the WAC coaches ranked below Hawaii.
Surely the WAC coaches are smart enough to believe that Southern Cal would be favored over Hawaii, right? Well... let's just presume that they are smart enough.
I'm not naive enough to think that this is the first time that coaches have ever pimped their votes for bowl money, but it may be the most egregious.
For the past two years, the Big East has been the big culprit - tipping their teams by +2.3 positions in 2006 and by +1.5 positions in 2005.
For comparison, the WAC's numbers were +1.8 in 2006 and +0.3 in 2005.
If you project the current trends into next seasons poll, the WAC coaches will be inflating their conferences' teams by an AVERAGE of more than 8 poll positions.
So what's the motivation for bumping your conference teams five spots? A big sack of sweaty BCS money.
The Warriors will receive the largest share, with the eight other members collecting checks for several hundred thousand dollars, as they did last year when Boise State reached the Fiesta Bowl."Whatever the amount is, it will be reinvested," [San Jose State University] Athletic Director Tom Bowen said. "We'll use it for summer school, sports medicine, and strength and conditioning for all our sports programs. We're not just going to pour it all back into football."
Money - plain and simple. The WAC got a little taste last year and now they're hooked.
The WAC distributed a record $14,312,398 to its nine members last week, commissioner Karl Benson said. That amount included $9 million in BCS revenue...
"Those were fun checks to sign," Benson said.
They gotta have that smack. They NEEDS it.
And now they're pimping their poll votes to get it.

For point of clarification... nearly every team in D-IA (FBS) and D-IIA (FCS) are guaranteed money from the BCS without placing any teams into the actual BCS games.
The real pimping comes from a WAC team making it into a BCS game like... oh shock!... Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl. Then each WAC team makes several hundred thousand MORE.

Cane - the only reason to have polls and rankings is to boost TV rating, and make more money.
I would say that if the coaches could watch every game played each week then they would be a good judge of how teams should be ranked. Without actually watching the games you can't say who is better. Why the sports reporters ever had a vote is ridiculous, just because you watch some games doesn't make you an expert. Oh wait, maybe I am an expert, and everyone on this board is an expert. Why don't we start our own poll next year and crown the FANBLOGS national champ!
Take a peek at Bob Stoops ballot, it's pretty interesting.
Well, has anyone ever thought about having a playoff??? Hahahaha, I am not holding my breath.

Your vote could be based on your login name. Maybe you are required to have X amount of posts to vote or something.
It would be great if people could vote based on true impressions of teams, but of course the coaches don't all seem to follow this so who knows. Maybe they do, but either way it might be interesting to see how the fans feel, rather than going by the coaches who can't possibly watch as many games as we do.

Kevin:
Interesting that someone would discover the Sagarin Predictor. It is so accurate that it comes out to about 50% against all betting lines (that means it's good). Any higher or lower and it's not very good. Also, if you were to add every point up against the betting line for a whole season - you would probably find out that "the Predictor" comes within 0.10 (or 1/10th) of a point for all games. As with all computer programs, it can have teams rated somewhat too high or too low, thus skewing some results. But, nevertheless, it serves as an excellent base point for any computer program to figure out a base points scale. I use this model as my "base" and compiling data over the past three years in order to figure point standings for every position in a ranking system. Then, I use the other five rating services, to balance out team standings. Therefore, nobody should be too high or too low, although they always are. The best rule of thumb: if the game looks too good, it's because it is, so take the other team. I maintain that the officials do "fix" 8-9 games per week or 16-17% of all games. Otherwise, these programs could make you millions. That being said:
Hawaii really is about the 30th best team in the country - if even that - more like 40th. When I shoot my mouth off about rankings - I do understand a little. A computer cannot do justice to the absolute weakness of a schedule or running up the score. Kansas looks real good to any computer, but the fact is, is that they rolled up the score on some pretty weak teams. They did struggle against some of the good teams that they played with no signature wins against anybody. Even though these computers can get you some real good numbers, you still have to use your head, to determine who is really gonna win a game. Hawaii is awfully tough, as they throw the ball so often, and if Brennan has a great game then they can surprise you. On balance though - Hawaii would get squashed by any really good BCS team. Bottom line is: they do not belong in the BCS Bowl games.
So, is it very surprising really, that conferences would begin to figure out how to work these systems to their advantage? Not really.Tommie Trojan

That would be cool if we got our own poll.
I agree to keep the BCS...is it perfect??...no, not even close. But its exiting. I mean honestly, would anyone have watched WV vs. Pitt if there was a playoff????ummm nope!! All that would've happened was WV losing their home field advantage.

gOSU27 - I went to University of Vermont, are you talking about the basketball game we played against them lat Friday night? We lost as expected. Now that coach Brennan is gone I don't see us in the NCAA tournament for a long time, if ever again. At least we did beat Syracuse in the tournament the year after they won the NC.

#14 gOSU27 - I have a question. So you would rather watch the Pitt vs WVU because it mattered more than you would like to see the top 8 teams have a playoff? Not me, besides according to the BCS West Virginia would be out of the top 8 and out of the playoff in this situation. Hmmm, so that game still would have just as much meaning, but you would get all these matchups as well. I owuld love to see all of these games.
1. Ohio St vs 8. Kansas 2. LSU vs 7. USC 3. Virginia Tech vs 6. Missouri 4. Oklahoma vs 5. Georgia

The play-off ney-sayers argue that the games wouldn't have as much meaning, such as with the Pitt/WVU game sited by gOSU27. I disagree. Instead of 1 or 2 games determining who will play for the NC, we'd have 8 or as many as 10 games determining who makes the play-offs, depending upon the play-off format (Elite 8 or Top-10). So, by all means, junk the BCS & the Coaches poll. Let all of us show em how it's done. I vote WVU #1...

From UVM,
Let me explain...
1st bracket would be:
#1 TOSU v. #8 Kansas
#3 VaTech v. #6 MissouriTOSU beats Kansas
Missouri beats VTTOSU beats Missouri
2nd Bracket would be:#2 LSU v. #7 USC
#4 Oklahoma v. #5 Georgia
USC beats LSU...badly
Oklahoma beats Georgia...barelyUSC beats Oklahoma.
* TOSU plays like they did in 2002 and beats USC in triple OT...I'm an OSU fan so I have to say that.
2nd week of September 2008. TOSU brings everyone back minus 2 and destroys the Trojans at home.
Just my 2 cents..

OSU over Kansas
USC vs LSU tossup
Missouri over VATech
Oklahoma over GeorgiaOklahoma over OSU
USC/LSU winner over MissouriWould love to see either USC or LSU play Oklahoma

FromUVM,
Check...However in an 8 team bracket it has always been #1's and #3's v. #2's and #4's.
Every tournament I've been involved with has been that way.
Could TOSU beat OK ... I don't know I haven't watched them that much this year except the Missouri game.
Bottom-line is that the #1 seed always has the best chance to make it to the end game. With your seeding that's the way I see it.

and then USC for the next two years!!
Its gonna be great.We could see a one vs. two match up next year with tOSU/USC. I know this is thinking pretty far ahead, but, then a rematch in the national championship only to play again the next season!!

Well, let see what we got here, Kev. BOISE STATE was 5 years late on their BCS invite. When they got it, TNT IM DYNAMITE! TNT...In your face CORSO! Whatever BSU,HAWAII,FRESNO ST. is ranked you hafta add at least 10. You gotta be kiddin me Illini the ROSE put in a 10-2 BOISE ST. If they get killed 41-14 like Ohio St., Notre Dead, Oregon, Texas AM, Michigan, Ucla and N. ILLinois just treat them as you did OSU this year. At the very least BOISE should be in the Holiday Bowl. TEXAS would be a team that might give them a fight. HAWAII would wipe the field with the BUCKEYES. They would never kick a FG. LSU GA FLA are a different animal. Maybe a FG would win. THE COACHES POLL IS A COMPLETE JOKE!

Kevin - the problem with an ip registered poll is that if you (the user) use DSL or dial up to vote you will most likely have a different ip when you re-connect to the internet. Even my cable modem changes ip address every so often. Just a thought. You could still use each user login that we currently have (if you have that information) to post your ballot each week.
S&G.bulletrain - I have seen that bracket before, but it's been a while. When I play in tournaments of any kind it has always been as follows...
Round One
1 vs 8 (game 1)
4 vs 5 (game 2)
2 vs 7 (game 3)
3 vs 6 (game 4)Round Two
game 1 winner vs game 2 winner (game 5)
game 3 winner vs game 4 winner (game 6)Round Three
game 5 winner vs game 6 winner (game 7)This way #1 seed has the best chance to advance because they play #8, then either #4 or #5. This way the highest seed they play before the finals is #4. Guess it depends who sets it up, but to me this bracket makes more sense. If you were #1 wouldn't you rather play #4 instead of #3?

Hey thats your job as coach to try and help your team, whether its in the polls, the press or the locker room, you do what you can for your team.
Kinda sad for the Wac and Mt West, because even if you go undefeated you have no title shot.
Some of these teams should probably look at trying to enter the Pac-10,Big 10 or Big East kinda like Louis and Cinn did when they left C-USA at least now they could possibly reach the ultimate goal in the current system.
Going undefeated just aint good enough.

OSU #1 is a fraud. LSU #2 is a Crime. VTECH, GA, and USC lost home games so SHUT UP! Dont let the BCS fool you of who is #1. It is simple. APP. State, Stanford, N. Iowa, North Dakota ST., Michigan, Cal, Oregon, Kentucky, S. Carolina, and Notre Dead showed this year big schools are ranked high because their big. Small schools are playing with Heart and a chip on their shoulder as big as USC ego and their kickin butt. 1AA have been dominating the little 11 for years now. I would bet my house in BCS game APP. ST. would give OSU major problems and would beat them. N. Iowa would beat Michigan and Wisconsin. ND State would beat Illinois. Why would you rank OSU In the top 10 after all that? OSU would sell more tickets and hotels but that does not give you the best team. For the past 2 months I have said whoever beats HAWAII is your NATIONAL CHAMPION and if GEOGIA comes up short BLAM! Colt Brennan back to back HEISMAN Trophies! WAC BACK TO BACK NATIONAL CHAMPS! GO UNDEFEATED OR GO HOME!

OU-RON, If your gonna wait til HAWAII is 13-0 and then rank them 8 or 5(like BOISE ST. last year) then why rank them at all. UTAH, BOISE, HAWAII start at the bottom at work their way up. While USC, OSU, LSU lose to unranked teams at drop 1 to 7 or 2 to 8. GA is the second hottest team in the country Behind HAWAII. The Patriots couldnt go undefeated in the SEC. I will make a deal with you. When USC, CAL, ASU, OREGON, TEXAS, MISSOURI, FLORIDA, LSU, TENNESSEE come to BOISE and humiliate them I will shut up! I think BOISE STATE is like 62-2 at home, that is STOOPID! But they havent played anybody good. I wonder WHY. Im in SEC country but sometimes you gotta go to the northwest to find the best.

FromUVM (Post 36) and K-Hue, an Elite-8 format is OK. I like a Top-10 format, if for no other reason, WVU gets in.
Consider this scenario based upon an average of the polls from an earlier thread:
1. OSU
2. LSU
3. OK
4. GA
5. VA Tech
6. USC
7. MO
8. KS
9. WVU
10. HIPreliminary Round
HI at MO; WVU at KS
1st Round
Cotton Bowl: OSU vs. KS/WVU winner, Sugar Bowl: LSU vs. HI/MO winner, Rose Bowl: USC vs. OK, Gator Bowl: VA Tech vs. GA
2nd Round
Orange Bowl: Gator Bowl winner vs. Cotton Bowl winner
Fiesta Bowl: Rose Bowl winner vs. Sugar Bowl winner
BCS Championship Round
Fiesta Bowl winner vs. Orange Bowl winner
Just a thought...

gOSU27 and others: FYI, there were 33 different national championship selectors in business last year, with four different champions selected, including one vote for Ohio State, two for USC, one for Boise State, and the rest for Florida. Betcha didn't know there were that many, huh?
Evidently, national champion selectors are like belly buttons and opinions--everybody has one. Why couldn't we? The vast majority of these not even professional sportswriters have heard of. To my knowledge, no blog has sponsored a NC before, we could be the first. After all, Forbes.com calls us ...the best blog dedicated to a single sport, right?
Credibility wouldn't be an issue, since 98% of these selectors lack it, too. We would be in it for the press and ego satisfaction, pure and simple. You never know, maybe our champion might buck CW and go viral on everybody. FANBLOGS.COM PICKS NOTRE DAME AS 2007 NC
ZAC: Remember earlier in the year, or maybe it was late last year, when a few of us discussed the idea in a little detail on a particular thread? I've done some google searches to try to find it, but I'm coming up with zilch. Do you remember?
I remember proposing that we not have a democracy style vote, where anyone could sign on and vote, where it's one big popularity contest, a la American Idol but instead to select an electorate, if you will, of contributors who post regularly on here, for them to cast votes. You have to pay your dues first before your opinion is warranted. This way we could avoid the drive-by posters and riot-inciters who occasionally grace our pages.
There are some guys on here who seriously know some college football. Most are homers, only knowing their team, but knowledgeable just the same.

USC plays idaho instead of BSU because they are already playing a schedule with 8 teams at least that have the talent level of BSU. There is a reason BSU gets smoked by BCS teams everytime they go on the road to face them...
@ Oregon State - destroyed
@ Georgia - out of the game before the 1st quarter was over
@ South Carolina - same
@ Arkansas - got smoked again
they even lost @ Washington this year, the same Washington that was destroyed by the same Ohio State team you claim is afraid of Boise and the like.
Look at their past and future schedules
02 Texas Tech, Washington State
03 NC State, Washington
04 @ NC State
05 Texas, Cincinnati
06 @ Texas, Cincinnati
07 @ Washington
08 @ USC
09 USC
Those are the kinds of games Boise plays and loses by 30 in, don't talk trash about the USC's, Ohio State's, Michigan's and Florida's of the world who play 10 teams as talented as Boise every year, until Boise can actually beat a team of that caliber more than once in it's history.Wk1b25 said:

We'd need to raise some money for a trophy of some sort, and for some advertising. On second thought, maybe we wouldn't need advertising if we're online. Perhaps we could be promoted by some of the more prominent homer blogs?
We'd need a few of the regular suspects representing the various conferences/regions. We could get you to cover the Big Easiest, (sorry) Tommie Trojan to cover the Pac10, and 38 guys to cover the SEC. That should about do it! :-)

coondawg1 (#55),
According to WEA, there are 33 national championship selectors.
If you feel so strongly about Boise State having a share of the 2007 MNC, why not create your Peoples Champs NC you mention, for the 34th selector.
By the way, Troy Smith earned his Heisman last season.

From someone who watched Boise St get destroyed between the hedges a couple of years ago, I don't think I can give anything you post an ounce of credit. With all the hype for Boise St going into that game, I was just embarrassed for them.

Hawaii was .03 BCS points above #12 Florida, .187 BCS points above #13 Illinois.
Multiplying this by 3*25*60 gives the number of points in teh coaches poll to change this, with the Harris Poll and computers remaining the same.
This is 135 Coaches Poll points to be below Florida, and 841 Coaches Poll points to be below Illinois.
The WAC has three coaches by my count in the Coaches Poll. Even if they had five we are talking about 25 unearned points in the Coaches Poll. This isn't even enough to put them below ASU.
Not to mention that every one else is doing it.
The BCS conferences have twice as many votes in the Coaches poll per team in the conference. Why shouldn't the WAC have twice as much bias to level the field?

BIG BEN PRATHER, YOU DA MAN! EVERYTHING YOU SAID PLUS EVERYTHING I SAID MEANS HAWAII SHOULD BE IN THE BCS TITLE GAME. RIGHT!
Just to clear sumthin up. I know USC, OSU, OK, Texas, Notre Dead, Michigan have 50x more talent than the WAC. They got the best players $MONEY$ can buy! That is why it is such a great accomplishment for BOISE ST. or HAWAII to take down GOLIATH! At the start of the game their basically playing GOLIATH with both hands tied behind their back. WAC Coaches Keep up the good work. 1 day the WAC will have an automatic bid as they should already.

I thought i would never hear such idiotic ignorance from one person,....and then i found this Coon character on his knees sucking of the WAC while commenting on this blog.
1st of all, you have no obvious knowledge of college football at all. My high school (Southlake Carrol, Texas) would be reining champs of the C-USA, WAC, MAC, BALL SACK or whatever those made up conferences are.
I go to Tennessee, who beat Georgia, but I still believe Georgia and USC should be playing for a title because they are THE two best teams. (Sorry Ohio State, you played a WAC schedule this year, #1 is not deserved)
Every year, the top five is determined by which SEC teams beat the shit out of each other the most and allow Big Ten, ACC, and Big East teams to slip in. I ligitimately believe that Ole Miss would contend with OSU, ive seen them wear down LSU multiple times.
Example: Florida beat the hell out of Tennessee, Tennessee killed Georgia, Georgia beat Florida, South Carolina beat Georgia and Kentucky, Tennessee beat Kentucky and South Carolina.
And those are just sec EAST games of the top of my head.The point is that the top 5-6 teams come from the same conference every year and just do not get their fair chance to prove it.
The only way to fix it would be to fix the system, a playoff that has no under-representation of conferences, then will see if you still want to talk about the WAC.

As for next year........you know the swamp holds 90,000 +...........Hawaii's heads are going to rattle!! IT'S GOING TO BE LOUD!!! AND HAWAII IS GOING TO GET A DOSE OF "BIG TIME FOOTBALL".
I actually read a post by someone who thought Hawaii played as tough a schedule as Ohio State.....I will give TWO resaon why Ohio State's was tougher.....110,134 Penn state fans and 111,941 Michigan fans.........what WAC stadium is half that big?

I honsetly beleive that you could put Hawaii against the bottom of the XII & SEC and they would be lucky to win a single game.
Ole Miss & Baylor would whup them and Miss St and OK State would destroy them.
Now they get their chance against the UGA Dogs in a game. Good luck Rainbows

Hawaii's a good team, sure. But they're gonna get a mudhole stomped in them by Georgia, don't kid yourself. Before those Hawaii lineman can even look up after the snap, those Georgia defenders will have already blown by them. And the only way they'll know that much is because all that long hair will be blowing in a sudden wind.

but ill play your little game to maybe see if you will come out of your lil messed up football world that you think exists.
1.) Michigan- Loss
2.) Louisiana Tech- Shitty team congrats on the win
3.) Utah State- yea kinda like Minn? what!? whatever Minn. was 1-11 this year. Win, but a win that doesnt mean anything.
4.) USC- 56-10 minimum, absolute blow out
5.) Idaho- win, yay potatoes
6.) San Jose State- Win- the team was 5-7 for god sakes and Hawaii beat them by a touchdown.
7.) Fresno St.-Win (nothing like Penn St. or Wisconsin at all)
8.) Michigan State- LOSS (Beat Pitt, Notre Dame, Purdue, AND Penn State)
9.) Nevada- Win
10.) New Mexico State- Win

I said "one day these dudes will git a big bowl game and their not gonna get blown out." They can score. People laughed. I wear a #5 Zabransky jersey. GA killed us. People laughed. Lost to BC, last minute pick. People pointed and laughed. I prayed just to get in the BCS last year. I shut my mouth and took the verbal abuse for a month. All I said, " were gonna score, we dont kick field goals." 4th and 18, touchdown, I lost it. I knew it didnt matter if they won, what mattered out there is theres greatness in places you would never know there was. Dont believe a team is the best cuz ESPN or ABC tells you that. Have a open mind and you never know, you might be the underdawg in the world and if your the best then everyone will know your #1.

Would you really like to know why I don't think Hawaii is championship calibur???
Boise state is ranked 78 in recruiting right now......
Hawaii is ranked 86 in recruiting.......Illinois recruits more talent on a regular basis than does Hawaii......you can go ahead and shoot your mouth off about illinois, but they play in a BCS conference......and untill Boise and Hawaii play a full schedule in a BCS conference they won't get the respect of a BCS team.

coondawg #139, do you know why undefeated lives in the WAC? It's because they have two teams that are head and shoulders above the rest of that terrible conference. If they win one game, the rest are already a given. The reason Boise has no losses against BCS teams (apparently you don't count Hawaii, they lost there) is because they don't play that quality of an opponent. If they can go to powerhouse's school and beat them, then you can't start talking. When you something about teams not wanting to play Hawaii, it's because they don't want to travel 5,000 miles for one game, not because of talent. Go widdle a model of a bear or something, because you might be able to do something productive for a day. Or better yet, look up some facts about BCS schools against the WAC. They're already on here, but a second source might help you realize how bad they are in the WAC.

Actually, coondawg, to win a national title you have to get into the title game. Boise St. didn't do that, therefore they couldn't win the national title. Boise could've played either team from the title game and they would have been BLOWN OUT.

Not true...
In order to win the MNC, a team simply has to be voted first in one of the many polls/ratings out there...
Even the BCS "Championship Game" is a sham...
A poor showing by LSU AND tOSU against each other coupled with a Sooners blow out of WVU could actually propel voters to push the Okies to the top when they vote...

Idaho, Utah st., San Jose, New Mexico St. Lou.Tech are teams Boise and Hawaii have to play but dont want to. BCS teams dont have to play these guys, but what do they do?

Fine, if you want to be technical, to win a consensus national championship, you must play in the title game. Otherwise, you must beat your opponent handily, not get lucky on a couple of trick plays because you know (your coach even admitted it) that you were getting tired and wouldn't have been able to beat them in OT. If you think getting lucky against a two-loss OU team that backed into the Big XII championship that got them into a BCS game with a qb who converted to WR and only converted back because the starter was kicked off the team is winning a championship, then it just shows that you don't see championship caliber talent very often. And maybe if WAC teams were willing to travel once in a while, then maybe teams would go there. Bob Stoops is trying to get the best to play OU, so Hawaii or Boise St. could easily ink in a home-and-home there.

Last years Gators were good. But Ohio St. deserved their shot at Boise St. for The Real National Title not "the best 2 teams that sell tickets and more hotels bowl" title game. And what did they do, the same BS as last year. Warriors Rule!

coondawg #147, I don't think they would've needed to stop it. They would have already been up by 20. #149,Hawaii could stick around in New Orleans for the title game and see what true talent looks like. If they watched that game, they wouldn't want to play either of those two. M GO BLUE, I'm saying it with ya, Deeeeeniaaaaal.

148) Total Horsesh@#! EVERYBODY TURNED DOWN HAWAII AND BOISE. Ive talked to Coach Pete and not only will THEY not let them come to their place NOBODY GOT THE CAHONAS TO COME TO BOISE...
In years to come, you will notice the greatness of Boise St. since the SUKEYES and GATORS wont play the Broncos they have some MAC schools from the great state of Ohio on their schedule. 100% proof VODKA that Ohio ST. is scurred of the little guy. SEC, your guilty too, Florida vs. Hawaii next year, Urban Meyer said, "only if Colt Brennan is gone, then you got a game." Thats gutsy of them Gators. Lets see if they go back to Hawaii Stadium the next year, I doubt it. Another team the Sorriest Ever Conference likes to play is Southern Miss. So USM stepped up to the plate and went to Boise and got smashed by the boys in blue, see you in Hattiesburg. Now go crown the SEC as the PAPER CHAMP

coondawg... I really hope that you come back to the forums here at wonderful Fanblogs.com, AFTER the Georgia Dawgs dominate Hawaii. Hawaii is like a High School JV team playing against the 7th grade B team. They arent that good, but even they can look awesome against 7th graders. They have barely beated some incredibly horrible teams, and you are talking about them beating ANY team in the country? I'm sure your logic works like most of the "we dont get respect" homers in your conference so this is right up you're alley. Your Rainbow Warriors beat Louisianna Tech by ONE POINT....ONE POINT.... and that LaTech team played a then #8 Cal and lost 42-12 and played then #2 LSU and lost 58-10!! I know thats how your logic probably works so you can't honestly believe that your team is the best in the country.

So let me get this right,
You are arguing that Boise State should have played Ohio State for the championship, and Boise State could have beaten Ohio State??
Ok, Florida exposed Ohio State as a fraud and Boise State showed they could play 4 quaters with a top team.
This argument completely ignores Florida.
#154, #155) I will be here after Hawaii upsets Georgia.

Boise State, Hawaii and Fresno State could all finish in the top half of any BCS conference about half the time. Nevada is another team in the WAC that can make waves.The rest of the WAC is Sun Belt level or below.

Wow, you just showed me 7 cases where it showed that BCS schools didn't even have to strategize and still come away with a W (and LSU beat No. 12 SC by 12). That gave me 7 examples of a small school preparing all spring for one game and still losing to a team that barely even remembered that game as anything more than a scrimmage.

You're basically defeating the whole purpose of your argument. You're saying that Boise can beat anyone at home, so why should the go on the road? That is exactly what you're saying about all the BCS schools. If Boise wants people to go there, then they have to schedule an away game, too.

Boise's away games over the past 3 years against BCS conference opponents (Georgia in 2005, Oregon St. in 2005, and Washington this year), do you happen to know what their record was? It was 0-3.

You need a little more success than that to hang with the big boys my friend.

coondog 1 why dont you roll another one and take a trip to fantasy island( Hawaii). I enjoyed reading your wifes post last night and now I understand that yall must be in some sort of WAC isolation or insulation from real world.
The current system is not fair and I for one do not like the BCS system and would welcome some sort of playoff senerio in the future. Until that happens the best a team from WAC, Mt West or C-USA can do is go undefeated.
post # 159 Ben statement says that Bois St last year proved they could play 4 quarters against a top team, thats just his opinion, who said Oklahoma was a top team? That team lost three games that year including 28-10 loss to Texas.
I picked Boise St to win and was glad they did, however it wasnt exactly David knocking off Goliath has the press would have you beleive.
Did Boise St earn the Nat Champ- no they just beat Oklahoma, just one purty decent team from a BCS conference. Now had they went undefeated in that conference and won the CCG game and then faced the #1 team in the nation and won then and only then would they be crowned a Champs- which is kinda mythical anyway unless there is one clear cut dominate undefeated record setting team.
Ex 05 Texas
La Laf
Rice
@ # 2 Ohio St---Horse Shoe
@ # 8 Oklahoma- neutral site-Cotton Bowl
Colo
@ Missu
#7 Texas Tech
@ Baylor
Kansas
@ Ok State
@ Texas A&M---Kyle Feild
@ Colo-------CCG game-Houston
@ #1 USC--------NCG
Honestly do you think Bois or Hawaii would go undefeated if they played that type of schedule?
They beat the top team in the B 10, Pac 10 and went undefeated in the XII- thats a championship team- To go undefeated in the WAC- purty good
Can Hawaii beat UGA- yes maybe so, is Hawaii #1
No- Take any team from the XII including Iowa St & Baylor and they would do well against
La Tech
Nevada
San Jose St
Fresno St
I really like watching M West and C-USA football alot of the games are exciting and evenly matched.
I like to pull for the underdogs and I watched
Texas Tech vs SMU
Rice vs Texas Tech
TCU vs Baylor
These games are alot of fun even though there is really no national implications.
Dont Knock the Rice Owls
Texas has been playing Rice for like 100 years or something like that, those guys have balls
Its a traditional thing, looking foward to next year Texas vs Arkansas does Hawaii have anything like that on their schedule?

Don't mind me, MGOBlue, just another irrelevant post.
Big Tide (Post 162), I feel your pain; I'm still laughing.
Tomcat, nice try, as usual. Something tells me this isn't over with. I think his wife take's the next shift.
Coondawg, I like Boise St as a team. WVU played them a few years back, and they gave my Mountaineers a lot of trouble. I really liked Boise St last year, and thought of all the teams from the mid-majors, they were legit, and were probably worthy of a shot at the NC. In fact, had they played OSU, it might have actually been an interesting game instead of the blow-out we all witnessed.
Hawaii, by comparison, has not nearly played the same schedule this year played by Boise St last year, and they beat Boise this year, which tells you the level to which Boise has regressed; i.e. they're even that much further from the team they were last year.
I think Colt Brennan is solid. He's got a strong, steady "O" line, and no fewer than 3 reliable receivers. That is the extent of Hawaii football. Were it not for their offense, they'd have few wins, as their defense has done little to support them. Our soon to be NC has both, and that can be said for either candidate. Therein lies the difference.
Guys, I'm exhausted. I need a night cap, and I'm hitten the hay. Sweat dreams all.

Yes, BSU knocked off a 3 loss OU last year in the Fiesta. I enjoyed watching that game. However, to come and spew stupid shit saying how great the WAC is compared to everyone else? It's ridiculous. Regardless of what will ever happen, they will still be the Western Athletic Conference. They are the Ginger step child of college football. We will see how well it will fly in the Sugar Bowl. And as for June Jones, let's just say Hawaii will have some linebackers carted off the field to start off '08 after Superman runs right through them.

@179 40 Acres - Most of college football is afraid that a playoff system will shutout the small schools from a piece of the bowl $$$.
In order for a playoff system to get approved, all D1A schools need to get some of the playoff money. Keep it small enough as not to take away from revenue generating small bowl games.
A playoff of eight conference champs will do that. Once everyone sees how much money can be made, the sky is the limitZac said:
