Re: Official Washington exposes Hawai\'i the Fraud Thread
Meh, I think Hawaii deserves a BCS spot at this point. They beat 10-2 Boise, they beat a decent Washington team that was much better than their 4-8 record, and they did go 12-0. Remember, with 10 teams making the BCS, it's not exactly the cream of the crop.
From a who's the most talented team standpoint, they don't belong in the Top 12, but can you honestly say that LSU/Illinois is a more intriguing matchup than LSU/Hawaii? I'd rather see Hawaii in a BCS game than Illinois. Plus, think about the easy money on LSU -24. Yum. P.S. Yes, I'm in denial for now about LSU going to the BCS title game. We'll see the results of ESPN's politicking tomorrow. |

Illinois is likely in the Rose Bowl anyway

Re: Official Washington exposes Hawai\'i the Fraud Thread
It was before austiger pointed out the BCS stipulation about selecting teams
since the Rose Bowl loses the #1 (Ohio State), they get first choice for at-larges. However, they won't be able to choose a SEC team (which was not previously the case) when a SEC team ends up #2 and filling the other title spot. Give the Rose a choice of Kansas or Illinois, guess which one they'll take. |
