  • The ACC is a terrible football conference.

    All four ranked teams lost and two of them got absolutely humiliated, one because of the score and the other because of the opponent who beat them. What happened to them?

    Its Karma for raiding the Big East.

    The Big East sucks too, but if they still had Miami and Va Tech maybe they would suck less?

      I'm genuinely surprised Tech is so bad. I didn't see the game but I suspect there is a let down there from having any thought of an NC (which some thought was not too far fetch) erased in week one. But James Madison? That is the kind of game Virginia could easily lose but not Tech.

        You forget they played a late Monday game. That is a tough turn time to lose a game the way they lost on Monday, then having to be ready to go again on Saturday, especially when Friday is not a day you practice. Three days of practice against a very good 1AA team that is highly motivated spells the perfect case for a let down. You think VaTech really was getting ready and putting in full prep for James Madison?

          No, I think you are right on the money. And in fairness, James Madison is one of the better non Division I (or whatever the hell they call it now) programs. I think it could make the jump up. Still I can't even imagine the mourning I am going to witness on Monday.

            You need to talk to bluehair, the better team always wins. Everything else is just noise.

                How is that misrepresenting? You aren't suggesting that VaTech was disinterested are you?

                  I don't remember ever saying the better team always wins. I've never even thought that. My point of view is that when you lose you have no excuses. No amount of excuses overcomes the scoreboard.

                    Here's an easy way to remember the new designations instituted by our beloved NCAA.

                    FCS= Football Championship Subdivision, formerly I-AA, they actually crown a legitimate champion through a playoff (hence the championship) in FCS.

                    FBS= Football Bowl Subdivision, or a better way of interpreting the acronym is Football Bull/Bowl Shit because they use the shit that comes out of the bowl system to crown a champion. FBS= bull shitting fans.
                    Dio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia
                    God forgives many things for an act of mercy

                    Knock it off. This board has enough problems without a dose of middle-age lechery.

                          Please do not post another thing in the Stadium until you watch your first college football game of the year.

                          Thanks in advance.

                            People will look to this loss as an argument against BSU's chances at an NC, but the loss says far more about Va. Tech than it does about Boise St. Plus, like Michigan of a few years ago for Utah, the win for BSU served its purpose, it got BSU bumped up a little bit as the solid #3 team in the nation.
