1. Are Arizona State and Boise really 2 of the top 4 teams?

I guess we’ll find out next weekend.

Every home team win easily. I get that there should be an advantage to a higher seeding but….

Ped State looked great but then SMU was just overwhelmed. Indiana looked like they had no business there but honestly who has ND beat this year? I get that they get a special deal because they are an independent….no it’s because they bring in BIG ratings.

Indiana and Tennessee looked like two teams who just reached the upper level but Clemson showed what an established program is. They had easily the best performance of all the losing teams.

And beneath you. I have lost some respect for you.

Tell the entire Sandusky story in a thread before you take cheap shots.

The Republican governor Corbett knew all about Sandusky and covered it up.

for having predators in their locker rooms. Sandusky was turned in to the higher ups, including the governor, who covered up for him. Then the higher ups did a bogus investigation by Mr. Freeh who conveniently laid the blame on a dead guy.

Ohio has a Magat member of Congress who keeps getting elected to office who covered up for a pervert.

I can name a lot more high profile schools who covered up for rapists, one is playing in the NFL right now.

They could have blown out more opponents but they took it easy in the second half but Dillingham created the mantra "finish the game" and they did against Iowa State and others. Plus they have one of the best running backs in the country that breaks so many tackles.

Boise State probably has the best running back in the nation (ASU has the 2nd best) but their defense isn't as great as the late 2000s Boise State teams but they have a chance.

Arizona State may lose to Texas because Texas is the highest ranked team to not win a conference championship but I can't wait til January 1st.

Hopefully Boise State and Arizona State wins so they don't change things too drastically I mean why even play the games.
