I could swear I saw something late last night on ESPN's site that said something about no playoffs til at least 2010, I could have misread it though

The contract with Fox Sports runs until 2010.

What does the 1,624 etc mean on the AP poll?

[Phlegm]

That's the total points the school got. 25 pts for first place vote, 24 for second, 23 for third, ...

Unbeaten teams not ranked #1 ftl

you know, the guys who weren't good enough to make the local high school football team and live vicariously as talking head arm chair quarterbacks

I'm sick of the pro-Boise sentiment. Oklahoma was at best the 3rd best team in the Big-12 and got crushed by a Texas team in a down year, and squeaked out the rest of their wins against mediocre competition.

Boise is a GOOD program, but to even consider them in the same breath with a championship is laughable. Let them put a couple tough non-conference games on the schedule next year, go 12-0, THEN have some room to talk about how they deserve this and that.

People act like Florida couldn't have gone 13-0 with Boise's schedule. Not only that, Boise couldn't hang with them if they ever played.

I think it would be a very entertaining game to watch though

I think it would be a bigger blowout than what we witnessed last night.

and that's why playoffs are needed


no more guessing, no more hype

just 1 team that legitimately kicks the shit out of everyone else

Correct sir!

[Tacks]

I never said we didn't need playoffs so don't try to act as if I'm against it. If it were up to me, Boise State wouldn't even deserve to play in a playoff system. They played NOBODY. I know schedules are made years ahead but grow some balls and maybe you'll get more respect.

Making a miraculous comeback to beat your only ranked opponent all year won't do it.
