What? A pic of ND's stadium without Touchdown Jesus? Blasphemy. Oh, and way to stretch the page.

I don't think so. I just don't see anyone stopping Utah, at least not in regular season play.
Where is CSU ranked in the MWC right now, anyway? Y'all seem to have been doing a little better than I expected earlier in the season.
Good to see more Mountain West fans aboard!

Hah, yes, if TCU DID actually drop down to I-AA, that's probably about right.
But I was making the point that many fans of the larger conferences seem to think that mid-majors have no business being I-A.

Tigerbait, who thinks his ranking system make him better than all of us.
Soonerfan, who thinks his favorite team and their coach have rubbed some of their excellence off on him.
YbrikTCU, whose team got its fifteen minutes of fame before being bitch-slapped by Southern Miss last year and should now disappear to the depths of I-AA where it belongs.
There, anyone else feel left out? Note: Tigerbait, Soonerfan, don't take this personally, you're both really cool, I was just joking around.

What? No insult for the TCU fan? I'd be hurt if UTE's opinion mattered to me.

If Utah and A&M met today, I think it would be a close game. I'm honestly not sure who would come out on top there.

So I would not call our shedule week. I would bet anyone in the MWC could beat Nebraska I'm not going to respond to the rest of your post, as your legitimate points were just about canceled out by your nonsensical points, but I must say this made me laugh. The idea of UNLV beating Nebraska is just too humorous to ignore.

No, they should be #1 IMO. A&M #16, not bad.... Agreed. I will not say the BCS is working until I see Oklahoma at No. 1 and USC no higher than No. 4. Too much input by the human polls now. It was, what, 25 percent in the old system, now it's 66.6 percent? Is there not a happy medium?

I wonder if they will hire Spurrier Someone certainly will, between now and the beginning of next season. I don't know if it'll be Florida or not. My gut says it will be, but I really want to hope for him to go to Texas (assuming the Longhorns lose enough big games for Mack Brown to be fired, that is).

true, but if they win out they will be in a bigger bowl. Not necessarily, due to all the conference tie-ins every bowl has these days. Boise was in a bigger bowl than they would normally have been last year because the Big XII had too many bowl tie-ins and not enough teams to fill all the spots, because both K State and OU were in BCS games. Dunno if something like that will happen again. There's still a very good possibility that Boise will end up wherever the WAC champion normally goes, which I'm pretty sure is the Hawaii Bowl (against the No. 3 C-USA team, which will probably be UAB this year).

Sun Bowl El Paso, Texas Dec. 31, 1998 TCU 28, USC 19
And I'm fully aware how overrated we were last year. Utah is not as overrated this year as TCU was last year, in fact, I think they're right about where they should be.

Way to fail to even acknowledge huskersrule's argument about being at the top of a weaker conference than those ranked ahead of you.
As a fellow mid-major fan (and a student at a school that will be in the Mountain West with Utah next year), I want to see Utah do as well as they can. I think Utah is definitely not ranked too high, but might be ranked one or two spots too low. I'd put them at No. 8.
Yes, Utah is very good right now. Definitely at the top of the mid-majors. Yes, being undefeated this late in October counts for something. But look at who's ranked ahead of you: five more undefeated teams from much tougher conferences (USC, Oklahoma, Miami, Auburn and Wisconsin), three teams that have lost to one of those five (Texas, California, and Florida State), and Georgia. I'll give you Georgia, as they lost to a lower-ranked team (Tennessee), and maybe even California, who lost to overrated USC, but losing to Oklahoma and Miami, who I think are two of the best three teams in the nation (Auburn being the third), shouldn't drop top programs below a school that beats nobody. If there's anything I've learned from looking back on our season last year, it's that.
Please back up your arguments a little more solidly in the future.
My top 10 ranking, because I feel like it:
1. Oklahoma 2. Miami 3. Auburn 4. USC 5. Wisconsin 6. Florida State 7. Texas 8. Utah 9. Tennessee 10. Georgia
By the way, a few years ago, we beat USC, too. Look at us now, and look at them now.

Man, how the mighty have fallen. Is this really the team that blew up OU in the Suger Bowl? I really thought they would contend for a NC.... No, it's not the same team. That team graduated. This is another, younger team, probably one that will do well next year or the year after that.

Oh, they might survive in the Pac 10. Wouldn't be at the top, no, but they very well might be upper-middle-of-the-Pac (pun intended).
