lost a bowl game yet, and they're 2-0 against the Pac-10.  Looking good, so far!

great crescendo during the season; then falls flat with a bunch of meaningless bowl games.  The Mountain West conference is a stud conference but the SEC avoids them like the plague and instead rather schedule Florida International, Troy, Georgia Southern etc. because feeding on the weak is how the 'Bama's and Gators build up their rankings.

..and the BCS is all about rankings and conferences such as the SEC will do anything to build up their team's rankings. The farce known as the BCS will continue as each conference is allowed to do each their own thing.


Oh well! at least the NFL is grateful for the BCS. From now on until the Super Bowl, it's the NFL, the Rose Bowl and LeBron is coming to the Oracle Arena on January 11th.

I thought OSU would give a better showing against BYU, but the Mountain West has been a stud conference for a few years. Like you, I too would love to see the Mountain West play against the SEC.

Air Force 7-5
Wyoming 7-6
UNLV 5-7
San Diego State 4-8
New Mexico 1-11
Colorado State 3-9

These are the "studs" you are talking about in the MWC?

The MWC has 3 good teams - the rest are a bunch of consistent bums that do not deserve a shot at the BCS. If Utah/TCU/BYU want to be taken seriously, they should leave the MWC and join the P10, B12, or even join the Big East as part of a western division of the BE.
