My vote goes to Boise State. Finished #7 (11-1) on a missed field goal and drew 6-6 Arizona State in the Maaco Bowl.

OK St sure didnt. For many reasons.
But, at least now they might get a win in a BCS bowl.

I won't watch the game, but I hope Alabama wins. I will LOL like no other.

With that said, LSU wins by 3.

I cant imagine the offensive #'s that will be put up in the OK St game. There sure wont be no defense.

I'm much rather have no defense than absolutely no offense in the NCG.

He'll just come in here and chime about its not bad offense its great defense. And then I'll just point to Georgia Southern, who put up 30 on Bama's defense. Also, only in the SEC is 5 missed FGs considered good defense.

Nobody got screwed too bad. Would be nice to see Baylor and TCU in bigger bowls.

Not sure why people are saying Boise got screwed. Ya they went 11-1 and didn't get a BCS bowl game. They still aren't part of a legit BCS conference. Unless you play BCS schools on a regular basis, 11-1 shouldn't expect a BCS Bowl.

The BCS is to put 1 vs 2 and then let the bowls pick matchups they want. It's not to put the top 10 teams in the 5 bowls. I don't have any doubt that if Michigan played Boise's schedule they couldn't go 11-1 also. If you can't win the MWC then you should be happy you get to go to Vegas instead of staying in Boise for the potato bowl.

Yet somehow were able to get a #7 ranking using the BCS system. smh They have proven they can play with and beat the top teams.

Agree.

I think the BCS should start pairing "screwed" teams together. Let Oklahoma State play Boise State.

Then why do they vote beyond #1 and #2? michigan has proven they can lose to anyone. michigan might lose to Boise St,Georgia or TCU. It's easy to say something that cannot be proven.

I'll concede that Boise is more deserving of a pre-Christmas Bowl game, but I guess that makes up for the past few years when they didn't actually earn the right to play in a BCS game anyway.
