I don't think that TCU will move into the championship game if Oregon or Auburn lose. I think voters have been keeping them around because they knew in the end it was going to be Boise State that would be in the position to get into the big game. Boise beat VT and demolished everyone else they played (except Nevada).

TCU has won all their games but has several scares. Their best ooc win was against Oregon State, who unless they pull the ultimate upset of Oregon this week, wont even be going to a bowl.


If Oregon loses bad, Stanford will get into the game. If Auburn loses bad I see Wisconsin moving into the game. If both lose, I see Wisconsin vs Stanford.

If Auburn loses on a last second kick or something, I can see them playing for the title regardless - but will voters? About the only thing I don't see is a Stanford/Oregon game or TCU playing for the title.

I really doubt that though, I would argue that it matters WHEN you lose, for example Wisconsin lost before Michigan State or Ohio State this year, but won every game since, while OSU lost to Wisconsin a couple weeks later and MSU lost late in the season and is the lowest of the 3 ranked

if Auburn loses, I'd say 0 percent chance they're in the NC

I'd also like to throw in here that the Big Ten sure has rebounded this year eh?


wasn't it just a couple years ago we were talking about the Big Ten being the worst BCS conference?


this year they have 3 teams in the top 10, and if you want to throw Nebraska in there since they'll be joining it next year you have number 13 as well

radio host here this week was talking about when he was in Chicago for the weekend turning on the Northwestern broadcast during the slaughter


and they brought up this point which I love...


"their third string running back was a Heisman candidate to start the year, what are you suppose to do against that?"


until someone can prove me different I think at this point Wisconsin can run on anybody

Yeah, they have massive linemen and they use zone blocking on most of their run plays, so the back makes a cut or two, hits the hole and gets at least 5 yards, and they have a true STABLE of running backs that fit the mold for that offense perfectly it's frightening.

And the beauty of it is a every defensive player is looking to stop the run that Wisky's play-action passing is used with devastating effect!! Don't forget we have a very good WR in Toon and pretty decent TE.

Wisconsin and Ohio State better enjoy the view from the top, because Big Blue is coming. Go Michigan.

well Wisconsin is a senior team this year


4 of their O-Linemen will be going to the NFL draft, talk is maybe 3 of those will go in the 1st round


Wisconsin will drop back to the middle of the pack next year, this is their year to shine though
