College Football 2010-2011

Good job picking up the slack, I can't believe I forgot to make this thread this year.

and yes my whole football life is now devoted to hating Boise. I would have fucking slapped the shit out of Brent Musburger if he had seen him Monday night, how many times did he talk about Boise's "courage?" Holy fuck, what a homo.

Its so sad that beating Va Tech is now made out to be such a big thing. Really? They're not elite, they're almost always on the cusp of being elite but they're not elite. We beat Virginia Tech last year. It was basically just another game for us. Who the fuck cares?

If Boise makes it in over a one loss SEC team the system is broken and there's no use even being a part of the NCAA anymore. They have chances to play people, they had a deal with Nebraska where they played twice at Nebraska and once at Boise but no, that's not good enough. They have to be respected. Florida State built their program by playing anyone anywhere, if Boise's not willing to then fuck them, they're irrelevant. But they're not irrelevant because ESPN is bound and determined to get them in the BCS game this year.

I actually think they have a pretty good team but fuck em, they don't deserve all this fawning.

LMAO thank you and HOLY SHIT what a picture. Boise is fuckn ridiculous, RIDICULOUS. I didn't even know about the Nebraska thing. I just know that they play Va Tech and Oregon St. this year. And they are ranked 3? I fucken hate to see what happens if Alabama and OSU loses. If they get in a national title game ever without playing a halfway decent schedule then you are right it is broken. Fuck, go independent and play Notre Dame's schedule. The mountain west would have been decent for the next few years had Utah and BYU not left. But that's probably exactly what Boise wanted. Fuck those guys.

You guys have NO CLUE what it's like to start the season UNABLE to win the National Championship just because you're not in a BCS conference!

I love college football....I HATE the BCS!

ECU had that 2008 season where we beat VaTech and WVU to start the season (we ended up losing the Liberty Bowl) but we NEVER even if we won out and went undefeated, we could NEVER break into the BCS just because we're in C-USA....because the ACC won't let us in, the SEC won't let us in, and the Big East is about to be demolished.

I liked Boise State before they got all the press (because the field is named after me ) Go BSU!!!


In parting ...FUCK: THE Ohio State, VaTech, NC State, the USC Trojans and the Gamecocks, and Michigan.....I hate the Big Ten, I hate the Pac-10...everyone else not named is ok

Lyle I hate the BCS too but we don't have a playoff. If we had one, let everyone in. But we don't so we can't invite teams who have done jack shit like Boise in just because they went undefeated. Big conference schools play ranked teams 5 or 6 times a year, Boise will probably finish the year with only 1 ranked team on their schedule. You want them to play for the title game? It's the system we have, no fucken way we can let them in.

Yes and they(Big Conference Schools) get to fill their out of conference schedule with powder puff team whereas teams like East Carolina try and accomplish something by playing teams like UNC, NC State, Va Tech, West Virginia and we used to play Miami, South Carolina and Louisville a lot.

Funny story about playing Miami....when Hurricane Floyd hit in '99 Greenville (home of ECU) flooded and they were unable to play at home, so NC State says "We'll help our neighbors have a home game and move it to Raleigh! You can play at Carter-Finley Stadium (home of NC State, ECU's arch rivals, only State won't admit it because they are trying to get between UNC and Duke)"....anyway they have the game there, at this time Miami is riding a hot streak, they hold the longest active unbeaten streak, they're defending national champions and so obviously they're a heavy favorite. But ECU pulls out a victory scoring 28 points in the 4th Quarter and once we win, the crowd storms the field (Carter-Finley Stadium, home of NC State) and tears down their goal posts.......late that same year we play NC State AT State, obviously they were IRATE about the goal posts being torn down but we put an exclamation point on things when the Pirate Club (Boosters of ECU Athletics for you Brits) made up buttons that said "We Thanked 'em, Then We Spanked 'em" and then ECU went on to beat State the then unflooded Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium (ECU's Stadium), after we tore down their goalposts.....outside of the Red Sox winning 2 World Series and Liverpool coming from 3 down vs AC Milan to win the Champions League, that may be 2 of the best victories I have ever witnessed.

Dear God,

Please let James Madison beat Virginia Tech. If you do that for me I'll do something for you, like sit through one of ESPN's heartfelt stories about a kid with cancer and the superstar who inspired him.

Thanks
