There’s a Confederate soldier still holding out somewhere in the Everglades.
Or was I watching Deputy Dawg?
College Football is finally here.

Go Big Red!!! Nebraska Cornhuskers.
The Big 12 will be a joke the next few years without Nebraska.
I saw that you live in Texas. What does Texas think about Nebraska’s move to the Big 10 next year?

I thought Nebraska was the team that made the Big 12 North. The conference was one of the top three, next year it will be below average. Did I hear that the conference championship is also gone next year for the Big 12?

Nebraska? Who are they? I don’t think the Big 12 will be a joke as long as UT stays in. I am not a UT fan, but they are a good team. The only joke about it is that they only 10 now. :lol:

Penn State!
I’m also looking forward to my personal favorite game of the year: the Army Navy game (go Navy!)

Notre Dame is the ONE. Go Irish. Maybe they now have a coach!

They are the team that won 3 National Championships in 4 years back in the 90s. I know its been a long time but we had some really bad coaching choices and now that Tom Osborne is the AD and we have a great coaching staff, NU will be back on the top. One prediction on ESPN has NU winning the National Championship this year. I would love that to happen but with injuries on the defense already I am not counting on it. Maybe next year. I hope that the guy from ESPN is correct though. :-D

A conference must have 12 teams in order to have a conference championship game. With Colorado and Nebraska both jumping ship for the Pac-10 and Big 10 the Big 12 will need to entice some new members or give up their conf. championship game.

The Big 12- UT, OU and the powder puffs. Nebraska is an iconic team, that departure has collasped the the Big 12 north and south division.

I like Pro Football more than College, but if a college playoff system was in place, college would be better than the NFL.

Time for some balance here :-)
Miami native, born and raised on Biscayne Bay, and proud alumni of the University of Miami.
It’s all about The U!
Go 'Canes!
Not to many people realize this - the much vaunted University of Miami is an absolutely tiny private school (around 9000 undergrad), and I can about throw a baseball from one end of our campus to the other.
That being said, we are rivals with monstrous public state schools and regularly wipe the floor with them. It’s fun being the little guy with the big stick!

And then college ball would just be NFL lite where everything is all about the post season. No thanks.

Generally University of Texas, I don’t think I’ve heard it used as University of Tennessee…
Speaking of Texas, Go Frogs! TCU is going to crush Mountain West this year, and Boise doesn’t stand a chance if we see them in a Bowl.

Isn’t it already? Before the season starts there is a ranking of the top 25. One thing that irritates me is when people say they like college football because the kids play for the love of the game and it’s not about money. Please. The college kids play hoping to get into the NFL to make money. Everything in sports is about money and a playoff system in college football would have the 2 best teams playing for the championship besides a computer program setting the bowl games. And speaking of college bowl games, having as many as there are is like giving all the little league teams a trophy just for playing. It just doesn’t make any sense. Ok, I am done ranting now.

Plus, I hate the “top 25” preseason rankings because they mean a lot (in terms of final ranking) and suck butt.
Does anyone really think the Florida Gators are a top 10 team right now? Maybe in a couple weeks - but not Now!

The system is broken. The BCS needs to be done away with and a new system put in it’s place.

See the BCS is not broken any more than the National Champion has ever been. The Div. I-A Champion has always been ‘mythical.’ Before the BCS it was determined by a vote now it is at least “settled on the field” after a bunch of votes.
In the old bowl system number 1 could never have to play number 2 and could become National Champion. Then the BCS system came along and created a way in the old bowl structure for number 1 to play number 2 in one of the Big 4 bowl games (Rose, Sugar, Orange, Fiesta.) Then they added another separate championship game which gave two additional teams a shot at one of the big money bowls.
And the BCS rankings which are the ones that count for the BCS don’t come out till October after conference play begins so while it is a factor it isn’t really important that Florida is ‘ranked to high.’

My impression from the TCU and Boise games weas that Boise would win the game between the two teams.
I don’t want to see them play again in a bowl. I see that as an easy exit for the BCS. THe BCS system does not want TCU or Boise as a national champion.

TCU and Boise need to play the sort of schedule an SEC or Big Ten team does. Boise’s next toughest oppoenent is Oregon State a middle of the pack Pac-10 team in their ‘up’ years and then Fresno State.
Ohio State will play three or four Oregon States/Fresno States in Purdue, Illinois, TSUN and Minnesota who also play teams like New Mexico St and Toledo as warm-ups. They’ll play at least two teams at least as tough as Va. Tech out of Wisconsin, Iowa and Penn State plus an OOC game with Miami who is at least as good as Va. Tech.
A team like Ohio State gets blasted for scheduling ‘cupcake’ warm up games like Toledo and New Mexico State. But Boise is going to play an entire schedule of them and will deserve a shot at the title? Really?
