Not really a prediction, but a question.
Does a 1 loss Alabama team jump BSU and TCU?
I really don't think Auburn or Oregon goes undefeated. Where does that leave the BCS?

They definitely shouldn't but nothing the BCS ever does makes any sense.
It seems like everything is setup for a Oregon vs Boise championship.

It's a broken system, but it is a system that just doesn't allow BSU or TCU to put the appropriate skins on the wall to be considered for a title game. I think either team could beat any team in the country on a given Saturday, but the system in place requires that you look at the body of work a team provides and their conference schedules simply put them in a place where it is impossible to compare to the schedule of a BCS conference. I would rather see 1 loss teams from the Pac 10 or SEC than an undefeated BSU or TCU.
That said, I do think Oregon goes undefeated, but it is impossible to go undefeated in the SEC this year. Just isn't going to happen.
I would take BSU or TCU over and undefeated Mizzou or Michigan St. though.

Clearly that is not real. But the caller is right, AU should be #1. For once the computers have it right.

Those calls were a complete hoax. Caller was a sports radio host out of Houston. Really got their panties in a wad. :lol2::lol2:

I changed my mind on the issue. As long as it doesn't somehow negatively impact the UofA, I'm rooting for Boise State to play for a national championship if they go undefeated.
