beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 [ QUOTE ] Any major-conference team that goes unbeaten deserves to be there. That's why we need a playoff, to find out which two deserve it most. [/ QUOTE ] I do agree with the playoff idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigD4VT 11 Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 I just may be wrong. ESPN has VT #2 and Texas #4 in their mock BCS standings (real thing comes out next week), and CBS Sportsline projects VT vs USC in the Rose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old_school_blue 247 Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 I disagree, I feel if VT runs the table beating BC, Miami, and possibly FSU in the ACC title game, VT will be in the big show. No disrespect to Texas, but, VT does have a household name (Vick). But this scenario may not even play out. I think USC will get beat. USC still has to play Notre Dame (I smell an upset), Cal, and UCLA. I think it will be VT and Texas for the national title! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandman 13 Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] If USC, Tech, and Texas all go undefeated then it will be USC and Texas in playing for the title..No questions asked but personally I would love to see VT and Texas play [/ QUOTE ] This is not true... Lord people...just because it happened to Auburn doesn't mean its guaranteed to be the same scenario with Tech. By the time season is over...OSU will more than likely have lost 3 games and be a top 15 team at best... The strength of schedule and the winning of an ACC championship by VT gives them an ample oppurtunity to surpass Texas in the BCS race. Read about the formula and you will understand that they are not in the same position as Auburn was last year...and that all started wtih VT being ranked about 7 spots higher in pre-season polls than Auburn was last year. [/ QUOTE ] It's not just happened to Auburn, you have to remember that the BCS only goes smoothly when there are two undefeated teams at the end of the year (Ohio State/Miami Fiesta Bowl). And your ACC Championship comment, I think the SEC Champion should receive an invation to play in the BCS Championship every year, if they are undefeated. That brings up one more thing, if Alabama runs the table and is unbeaten at the end of the year, the Tide will bypass both Tech and Texas in evey poll.

beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 does anyone think the Big East will lose there BSC bowl game anytime soon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigD4VT 11 Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 Yes. It's just a matter of time before the Big East loses it's bid. WVU, Pitt, UL and UCONN are the best the conference has but none of them, with the exception of Pitt, have the in-state recruiting base they need to have a national presence every year. Pitt is in a talent rich state but they can't out recruit PSU, Mich., OSU and ND in that state. Best shot for the Big East is for the football only schools to break away from the BB only schools and form a new conference, then somehow convince Notre Dame to join.

EH31 2,526 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 usc isn't the best... to be the best "team" you have to be great at everything. I won't argue with thier offense, but theyre defense took a big drop since last year.. if notre dame can play 4 quarters against them they'll win.. i hate to say that because i hate n.d. but i hate usc more ..VT is the best team in the country.. i don't like them either, just tellin it like it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EH31 2,526 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 yeah i know what ya mean.. i didnt mean it to sound like that. if you look at virginia tech, they have good offense, defense and special teams. The Richmond Spiders could put up 20 on Usc's defense.. their offense bails them out alot. The past 3 weeks they've had to come from behind because their defense gives up the big play. I dont really know how to explain it, but in my opinion Virginia Tech is better than USC and Texas. i'm not a vt fan, just so everyone knows im not just saying that because they're my fav. team lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzzsawBeaver 12 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 in my opinion tech could defeat usc because they're d is not only exceptional but they often score with it, and their special teams are best in the country in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
