If you watched the BCS countdown show today and plus look at others calculations, then........
Lets just say, I would listen to them over you. I can see where you are coming from but the computers are hurting Ark no matter what.

LSU would also have to hope that Bama doesn't get upset, or they would be out of title game.

Have you seen AUB this year. I dont think we have to worry about Bama getting beat.

There were a few teams last Saturday that didn't have anything to worry about either.

Yeah, but every other conferences bad teams would be SEC East champs. The SEC is terrible outside of 3 teams. Auburn is garbage and might not win any games in the Big 12 except maybe against Kansas, but probably not.

Wait a minute, you just said UGA is one of the SEC's top 3 teams on another post. Try backing out of that.

Yeah, one of the SEC's 3 best teams. Every other conferences 8th best team. Derp

He has to since LSU really only has one quality win and that was a fluke over Bama.

Oregon wasn't a quality win? If Bama and Oregon aren't quality wins, no team in the country has any quality wins.

I counted Bama, even though it was a fluke win.

The computers currently have Arkansas 4th. Would that not improve if they won Saturday?

Do you wanna compare LSU's wins to anyone else in the country? Yeah, thats what I thought. And you are a complete joke if you think LSU is at the bottom of other conferences and 4th or farther down the list in the SEC. I guess the WHOLE country is clueless in your eyes. Do you want to make any bet for the LSU/ARK game? You truly are sleeper with another name.

You can do your own research or watch ESPN. Its not hard to find.

Or you could just type it yourself in the amount of time it took you to reply to that post. I don't care enough about average football teams to do it myself. Doucher.

Southern Miss will beat Houston in the C-USA championship and Boise State will make the BCS.

You think TCU is going to get beat, Boise is going to get to #4 or Boise is going to get an at-large bid?

Good point. Now that I think about it, TCU is the conference champion, which will preclude Boise from getting the non-AQ "top BCS ranking" spot. This will go to Houston if they beat Southern Mississippi and if they lose, it would throw it out the window as no non-AQ champion will finish in the top 14 of the BCS standings.

Could the BCS still take Boise since they are co-champion (even though they lost head to head)?

Haven't found any confirmation on this, but I don't know why the MWC would name TCU its champion on a head-to-head tiebreaker when it would mean losing out on BCS money for the conference. I have no doubt that Boise would go to a BCS bowl in that case and TCU would still go to the regular #1 MWC bowl.

Credibility of the conference if TCU won on the Blue Turf...then again, it's the BCS, and it's big money for the MWC if one of their members gets a bid.

Found this from 2003 because I was wondering the same thing but I can't vouch that it's up-to-date. http://graphics.fansonly.com/photos/schools/mwc/genrel/auto_pdf/Football.pdf

Head-to-head is the tiebreaker.

Head-to-head is the tiebreaker.
But that is for the normal bowl selection. They don't have a reason to break the tie for BCS purposes. TCU goes to the #1 MWC bowl whether Boise goes to the BCS or not. I just don't think the MWC would say, "well, TCU wins the tiebreaker, so they are our BCS candidate" when they won't be eligible. I believe they'd call it a tie, expect Boise to get the BCS autobid and TCU would still get its rightful reward in the #1 MWC bowl (I don't even know what that is anymore).

None of it is likely since TCU probably is going to have little trouble with UNLV. But there would be no reason to use a tiebreaker in that scenario since doing so/not doing so doesn't affect TCU's bowl.

Clemson does the normal Clemson choke job. Hyped again, but fail for another season.
