I just want everyone to know I have beaten every golfer on the local middle school team in match play.

I expect my exemption for the 2011 Masters in the mail any day now.

Nicely played.

But seriously, now all we have to hope for is a loss against Nevada at the end of the season? Seriously, they beat a 2 loss Va Tech team as well as an over rated OSu2 team, and they will now make it into the title game? WTF?

Or if OSU & Bama lose a tough one, they can just play TCU for the title :bonk:

Let's just focus on what our Buckeyes have to do. Take it one game at a time and win them all. Everything should take care of itself.

There are a lot of teams that have to lose for that to happen.

If an undefeated SEC champ is in the mix they go. If an undefeated BigTen champ is in the mix they go. If an undefeated BigXII champ is in the mix they go. Hell, if TCU goes undefeated their schedule actually measures up much better than Boise's. The only team that might go undefeated and NOT get in ahead of Boise is Oregon. There are a lot of late season match-ups that could easily bump a team or two past Boise State now that they get to stay low-profile for the rest of the season. A lot of things still have to happen for the Smurfs to get a shot at the 'ship.

The biggest take away from this should be that a BCS team that can beat Louisville at home by 7 is the definition of the "establishment" and if a mid major can take them on and win, then by God they deserve a shot at the NC.

Its not really a question of them bumping an undefeated team. Its them getting in over a 1 loss team that steams most peoples ass.

Yeah, yeah, I understand that, I was preaching that earlier in our game thread.

Im not worried about us - I just find it BS that Boise St is now untouchable. Its what we have all been screaming about, but now its beginning to come true. They get 2 games to win and they are in. No one else will beat them in their conference. Next seasons schedule better go: USC, Wisconsin, Florida, then their schedule. That should make up for it. But I will say that it would be pretty cool to beat Boise State in a title game.

As far as Oregon St is concerned, maybe they should have wore their Pro Combat uniforms today. :wink2:

Well obviously. I'm in the boat that if that happens they've "earned" it. I just don't think there will be less than 2 undefeated teams at the end of the season.

Bingo. If the Bucks lose to Iowa in a tight game, they will be taken out by an undefeated BSU - same if Bama gets beat by Florida.
