If Northwestern could pull off the upset of OSU, Penn State would clinch the Fiesta Bowl without even playing

What 1-loss team would deserve to play in the Rose Bowl?
Derwood replied to Derwood's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Oregon is too low right now. I didn't list every one-loss team (I left off Texas Tech as well as a few others) -
What 1-loss team would deserve to play in the Rose Bowl?
Derwood replied to Derwood's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Agreed. I think Bama will lose one of it's next 3 games, but USC and Texas look too damn good right now -
What 1-loss team would deserve to play in the Rose Bowl?
Derwood posted a topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I think Alabama will lose to either LSU or Auburn (or both), leaving just 2 unbeatens. If either USC and/or Texas get upset, we'll have at least on 1-loss team in the Rose Bowl. So, which team is most deserving to go (at this point)? -
Hone$tly...you're confu$ed? This a thing that really bugged me. ESPN gave the final scores for all the top 25 teams and then the rest. The only time they put up stats was for ND and Quinn. When did you see that? I saw stats for Vince Young, Brad Smith, and a few others on College Gameday Final. Yeah, that's not true. They DID run Calhoun's miserable day for WISC as the stat for the PSU/WISC game instead of Robinson's great day (lame)
-
If PSU plays ND in the Fiesta, that would be fun. I think it would be a very good game. Plus it's a warmup for playing in the regular season next year!
-
I don't hate ND for not being in a conference. I just question their BCS bowl credentials. I was a PSU fan for years during their "independent" years. They had great schedules with Miami, Texas, Alabama, ND, USC, etc. all in the same year. But I'm very satisfied with their choice to join the Big 10. ND is just greedy. They don't want to split bowl or TV revenue. They can hide behind "preserving their rivalries" all they want, but how awesome would this schedule be? : BC STAN USC TENN PSU IOWA MICH MSU PUR OSU NU MINN play a 12 game schedule, keep USC, maybe rotate ou Stanford, Tennessee and BC for BYU, PITT or Army each year. Then you have no controversy about whether the Irish deserve to go to BCS games or not
-
You can't blame ND for their schedule. They did not shy away from teams. This year it turned out that they did not have a schedule as tough as everyone thought. Not their fault. It not like they schedule weak opponents like C Florida, Cinncinatti, C Michigan or many other weak non-conference games many top 10 teams play. Their schedule has the potential to be just as tough as any BCS conference team. Penn State did have some weak non-conference teams. But to say that those three are any weaker than Army, Navy or Syracuse isn't fair. And no, it isn't ND's fault that their opponents ended up being crappy. But it should certainly count against them in the computer rankings. A second (or even third) place SEC or PAC-10 team will have played more ranked opponents than ND.
-
Look at it this way: through 2 games we are 1 ahead of last years pace! we will be through three too. All we needed was one rebound too. Oh well its early. The rebounding is horrible right now. How many offensive rebounds have they given up already in 2 games?
-
Oh, and my "Caucasian Sensations" are tied with dArejectsLOL right now. How the hell?
-
My lord. 3 pages and no strong Neifi Perez/Jose Macias contingency? I'm ashamed of you all!
-
Truth be told, Notre Dame's "awesomely hard" schedule this year had been somewhat of a bust: PITT: 4-5 MICH: 6-3 MSU: 5-4 WASH: 1-8 PUR: 3-6 USC: 9-0 BYU: 5-4 TENN: 3-5 NAVY: 5-3 SYR: 1-7 STAN: 4-4 TOTAL: 46-49 Not terribly impressive. They deserve what now?
-
No, they should join the Big 10, since they play 3 or 4 Big 10 teams every year already. Oh wait, but then how can they play their "traditional" rivals like the mighty Army?
-
Wow. Unfunny AND offensive! Modzilla?
-
Repeat after me: NOTRE DAME=TV REVENUE NOTRE DAME=TV REVENUE NOTRE DAME=TV REVENUE And you people thought it was about the game.....poor naive souls
-
Who does the Big 10 Champ play in the Fiesta Bowl? As a PSU fan, I want no part of Miami
-
Fantastic win by NU. And Penn State is OWNING Calhoun and Wisconsin
-
Players vote Andruw Jones Player of the Year.
Derwood replied to chopsx9's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
this devils advocate stance is getting very tired, der. How is being a realist playing devil's advocate? -

duh

Skiles said on ESPN 1000 that Hinrich has a minor sprained ankle and he is between questionable and probable for the Nets game. They had a quote from Heinrich on the Score where he said he's gonna test it out and that he wants to get out there for Saturday's game. He said that he's had worse sprains in that same ankle before. That this one turned out to be a lot more minor than orginally thought. Makes the long time between games an advantage
