Early BCS Line

[Dr. Fade]

That great USC defense gave up 31 points to a pitiful offense of Nebraska!! Nebraska would never score 10 points on LSU!!! Get a clue!

Like I said Doubters if last year didnt teach you a leason and all the history and Facts and Most importantly all the WINS and NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS dont then I think ether your stupid or something is definatley wrong with you!!

How can you compute schedule strengh before the season numbnuts??? ONLY AFTER THE SEASON CAN THE TRUTH BE TOLD!! GEEZ do I have to explain everything to you!! UCLA getting drilled by utah hurt that!! If you still dont have a clue dont bother trying to figure it out Your just naturally SPORTS IGNORANT!!

Did you watch the SC/NEB game? Nebraska scored 21 of those points in slop time. I think USC would have covered the 17 @ home vs. Gamecocks last week- that I am sure of.

No offense, but did you watch the LSU/SC game? LSU played with a very hobbled QB, w/o their best WR, w/o a starting DT and w/o their best OL in rain. The game became somewhat close in the 2H after LSU threw a pick on flea-flicker, which caused the D to play much of the 4Q.

Not making excuses, just want to point out the reality of the situation.

I'll put my homer two cents in...

I think SEC is down pretty bad this year as stated previously in another thread. Tenn is awful. Auburn is awful. Georgia is sub-par. LSU is elite. Florida appears elite but I'm not sold because of their youth. SC is now without their best player. Kentucky will need a few more years of winning before they scare anyone. Bama is much better than I anticipated (but probably much worse than Bama fans did... j/k). Vandy, Ole Miss, Miss St. are the same old song.

So as a conference, I think it is tough to talk too much shit.

As far as this bet goes, it's hard to say with potential injuries and such. But if both teams were perfectly healthy, I would be comfortable taking the points and Tigers.

Really, I would be comfortable taking the points with either of these two teams. So give me the dog either way.

 

[gjn23]

About the same as Perennial (SO CALLED POWERS) UCLA and WASHINGTON Well I think Tenn is better than both of those!! Some high schools are better than those 2!!! Face facts UCLA top 5 PUKE 1 member DRILLED BY HIGH SCHOOL!!! UTAH if you didnt know!! NO top 5 SEC team ever drilled by high school!! I am talking DRILLED here!! 40 something points counting the line!! WHAT A JOKE and TRUE representation of that "WEAK AZZ" conference!!

missed the ucla loss to utah because i was watching "perrenial power" auburn lose to south florida....or was it miss state, i cant remember????

the sec has 2 good team this year, lsu and fla.....lsu looks very good and as usual hasnt played on the road and only had 4 road games (1 which is actually another home game)...congrats on the scheduling....fla on the other hand has a pretty poor defense but will it's hands full in the next 4 weeks.

the pac-10 has usc-cal-ore this year with cal-ore facing off this weekend and the winner becoming a threat to sc (ore with the better chance)

forget it, if you cant see that the sec is down this year you will never see anything....good bye

How do you rank the top 3 conferences this year?

 

[dlvlsu]

SEC is down this year. I agree still better than PUKE 1!!!! LSU and FLORIDA = 2 good teams 3-4 mediocre teams in SEC !! better than 1 good team and 9 suck azz teams thats in PUKE 1???? Oregon and CAL???? Neither of those teams would or could beat half the teams in the SEC. I would take tenn, ga, sc, kentucky against all PUKE 1 teams but USC!! If you cant see that the PUKE 1 is just not as strong a conference as SEC then your blind or something!! USC outer conference schedule sux also!! So in conference and out of conference sux!! That means easy road!!!! NEBRASKA & NOTRE LAME Shit I would take Valdosta st against those 2!!(JUST KIDDING) But thats pretty weak!!! OLE miss and vandy are better teams than those 2!!! Better than wash st, az, stanford etc and so on!! It puzzles me why anyone that supposedly knows sports cant see these facts???

 

[gjn23]

How do you rank the top 3 conferences this year?

sec + pac-10.....pretty equal, slight edge to pac-10due to ooc wins thus far and 3 top teams vs 2.

drop off to

big east-big-12-10-acc (probably the worst of the 4)

all 4 look fairly similar but the acc doesnt have a true elite team while the big east has wvu, big 12 ou and big 10 osu.

maybe i'm still sports illiteriate but didnt cal just hammer tenn this year???

then again, why let a final score or that fact get in the way of a good argument based on fiction.

 

[dlvlsu]

You are stupid!!!! You just proved that!! SEC has a better win percentage out of conference this year than anyone!! It was shown on TV Saturday! SEC 17-3 Pac-10 19-6 SEC beat higher ranked and more ranked teams also!! GEEZ I knew I was talking to an idiot but give me a break!! Also yes Cal beat tenn but use that little brain dumb azz Talking about all those teams playing all PAC-10 teams!! KEY WORD IS ALL - means every team in conference not just CAL!!!

 

[dlvlsu]

Utah just drilled UCLA does that make UTAH"s conference good??

Using your dumb azz logic I BELIEVE IT DO!!!

Why is Cal ranked 44 in RPI, while Vols are in the top10:shrug:

Why is Cal ranked 44 in RPI, while Vols are in the top10:shrug:

easy, happens every year:

the mid level sec teams are always over-ranked to start the season

then the never play anyone (esp on the road) and always beat those nobodys,

then when they play each other in conf, the loser has a "good loss" and doesnt drop in the polls, while the winner has a "good win" and moves up in the polls.

it's a cycle that happens evey year and makes the mid level teams and the conf look better than it actually is...

My definition of a NC caliber team is one that can (with few exceptions) dominate on the road. USC has proven themselves over and over again. And I think LSU and Oklahoma will show that this year. Also don't think Florida can be counted out just yet either...they seem to play just hard enough to win sometimes...which deceived a lot of us last year.

:iagree: USC, LSU, OU, GATORS, creme of the
crop. All others step aside. Boy would a 4 team
playoff at the end of the year generate some
coin or what :Yep:
