Thoughts about TCU vs. Boise

[The_Tick]

Whatever happens TCU will have less of a claim to it than Utah did last year. I wonder if a majority of computers would make them no. 1 like the Utes got last year.

You are a 1 trick pony.

And it is a stupid trick.

How do you figure 2008 Utah was better than 2004 Utah? I think 2004 Utah would have run 2008 Utah out of the house. You guys were seriously lucky last year that TCU's field goal kicker was so abysmal. And I would like to have seen this year's TCU vs, 2004 Utah. That would be a good game. Anyway, Go Frogs! They should end up number two, just like last year's Utes, but they probably won't throw a parade as a result.

I still laugh at the argument that the U won last year only because the TCU kicker missed two FGs. Sorry, that's not the reason. Despite those two missed FGs, the U still had to score that last TD and the defense did one last stand to stop TCU.

I will agree, however, that the '04 team would have beaten the '08 team. That was a heckuva team - arguably the best college team that has ever come from any of the schools in the state of Utah.

How do you get that from his statement? I think he is saying that while the 2008 Utes were the only undefeated team in the country, there will be at least one other undefeated team in the country this year. The 2004 Utes shared undefeated honors with USC and Auburn.

Let's compare trophies?

Let's compare trophies?

Trophies, schmophies.

BYU was awarded the MNC because they were the only undefeated team that year. Had the same system been around, the '08 Utah team would have one of those fake trophies too.

Or are you really arguing that the '84 BYU team would beat the '04 Utah team if it was possible for them to play?

You have made this claim many times, care to provide a link?

[Art Vandelay]

I don't bet but if I did I would be putting big money on TCU -7 and a smaller bet on the 54.5 under. Don't fail me know horned frogs.

[cougjunkie]

TCU fans sure are loud

[cougjunkie]

Wow both of these teams look shitty.

Would the 83 champion beat the 04 utes? Or how about the 06 Longhorns versus Harvard in 1930.

You cant compare teams that are decades apart. Sorry.

Dalton seems rattled.

[FMCoug]

WTF was that?

[Non Sequitur]

There's a sick part of me that is rooting for BSU, just so I can see the CougarBoard melt down.

TCU is getting 5-6 yards a pop on the ground. They need to pound the rock, eventually they will break one.
