Speed Kills
Sorry Stanford, but your wonderful run behind QB Andrew Luck has peaked with a place in the middle of the top ten. Being tough can only get you so far--and the Cardinal have climbed the heights of college football--but without elite speed Stanford cannot match up with teams like Oregon. And unfortunately they have to play Oregon every year.
Another Painful November Loss
Boise State is a very good program. But for the second straight year they lost to a very good and proud program, this time TCU, that wanted nothing better than to eliminate them from BCS Title Game consideration. This time they were "out-Boised" by the Horned Frogs who scored winning pts on 2-pt play. TCU then won game moments later on 4th-down stop only to have outcome delayed due to a ridiculous penalty as the refs were doing their best to help the home team. Then, like last year versus Nevada, a missed FG at game's end sent Boise to first loss of season.
Cowboys in Uncharted Territory
Can Oklahoma State really win out and go to the BCS Title Game? Texas Tech are now believers after getting spanked. With Stanford and Boise losing we are running out of teams that can prevent a rematch of LSU-Bama in the championship game. Of course, Georgia just may squash all of that by winning the SEC title. Let's wait and see.
