    So if TCU loses to Boise State and Troy wins in the GMAC Bowl, the Sun Belt Conference will have shown itself to be the best conference in the country, with the MWC a close second. Cool. .

      SunBelt is ineligible for the Bowl Cup Championship ESPN created because they only have 1 team bowl eligible. For a conference to be eligible you have to have 3 bowl teams.

      The Mountain West has won 2 since it started in 2002 I think. This will be their 3rd.

        Please don't slight the Sun Belt. They have 2 teams.

            The Sun Belt had two teams: Middle Tennessee State and Troy. Would it really be fair if they snuck a third crappy team into a bowl game that also won an obscure bowl game against a terrible team? That's how the Big Six conferences must feel toward the MWC.

            Yeah, the MWC has clinched the Bowl Championship Cup or whatever ESPN calls it for the third time in 6 years -- not too shabby. I wish the MWC could have some more yearly match-ups against the AQ conferences, though.

              Teams from any conference can only win the games they're told to play. If the Sun Belt ends up as the only undefeated conference after the bowl season, who could argue that any other win percentage is better than 1.000?

                ESPN apparently.

                  True.

                  It's a shame that non-BCS teams will always get the shaft.

                    Going into yesterday's Sug, the SEC was only 2-3, but that didn't stop the announcers from slobbering all over the southern speed and "this game proves just how dominant the conference is."

                    BTW 7-5 UConn is presently beating South Carolina 13-0.

                      OK State, on the other hand, does look slower than molasses playing Ole' Miss. I hate the SEC, but they are consistently getting to the edge against OK States defense. I hope it changes.

                        yeah, I hate for OSU to win, but otoh, I more hate for the SEC to win.

                            Oklahoma State is just lucky Ole Miss's qb is confused as to which team to throw to.
