AggieDave 6 #51 November 8, 2009 I hope my beloved Aggies pull off another upset, 10 years after one of the best games they had ever played. However, it will be a very tough game and I'm not super confident...--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

muff528 3 #53 November 8, 2009 I completely agree with Gene Bleymaier's position. Allowing a strong, consistently winning team like his to play a major, 1st or 2nd ranked collegiate team would give credibility to a team's claim to a national championship title (and to the BCS if they allowed such a game to be played.) A win by Boise would also change the thinking in how to "set up" a true national championship, whether through a series of playoffs or another system. I think enough people are clamouring for some kind of resolution that it might happen in the future. BCS is only a small step in coming to a solution. The problem remains that there are so many college ball teams that there will always be some political interventions in who plays whom and when. Also, if it does come down to some kind of "collegiate superbowl" based on actual playoffs, it would put an end to barroom posturing and arguments that may best be left unresolved. As it is, schools like Boise State, et al. will always feel like they got shafted and can claim greatness without playing against "A-list" teams. Meanwhile the "big boys" like Florida, Alabama, Texas, OSU, etc can claim their titles without having to be embarrassed by a potential loss against Boise State and others like them. Makes for good drunken bar fights. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 34 #54 November 9, 2009 QuoteQuote Yep. Neither Florida nor Alabama looked convincingly dominating yesterday. Didn't see the Texas game. Vandy put some high-risk razzle-dazzle type offensive moves on them and I think Florida wasn't prepared for that. It seemed to be working for a time. I think LSU got the shaft with that interception call and I think that took the wind out of them for the rest of the game. They gave Bama a good game. The top 3 teams are getting a lot of pressure and I just get the feeling that one of them is going to break big-time before it's all over. Blown call on the interception or not, Alabama pretty much would have won. They got their passing game back in order (274 yards) and RB Ingram got his usual yards (140+). Yeah LSU stacked the box early and made us throw, then that success opened up the running lanes late. And except for two drives, Bama's defense did its job. It's hard to beat a top 3 team on the road, even harder to beat one after losing your top RB to a broken collarbone and your starting QB to a sprained ankle, both from nasty but clean hits by the defense. All that said, I'm a bit concerned about the Miss State game this Saturday. They almost beat LSU early in the season, with LSU staving off defeat on a goal line stand in the last minute, and their defense played well against the Gators recently. Bama has their work cut out for them."Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites muff528 3 #55 November 9, 2009 Oh, yeah! No doubt Bama likely would have won either way. I'm just saying that the Tigers just looked like a different team after that call. It killed any momentum they might have had. I'm sure they thought the game was within their grasp until then. Both Florida and Alabama did look much better in the 2nd half. There certainly are no free rides for either of them the rest of the season. Florida is going to have to play at the top of their game for the whole game from here on out with the exception, maybe, of FIU if they want to stay at the top of the polls. They certainly better be prepared for FSU and as you said earlier, SC. Florida State has scored 19 or more points in every game but one (USF) so they are still dangerous...even with a losing record 5-4.
