    What's a BCS autobid?

    10 teams go into the BCS. You have to be #14 to qualify (or a conf champ which almost always are top 14 or higher especially with the Big East crumbling). Notre Dame's deal I think is that they are auto if they are 8 or higher? Or is it 10 or higher? I don't think it's super likely we get snubbed if we're top 10 anyway.

      It is taking the Big East's place...triple d and his sinister plan might just yet be the only thing worthwhile, above and beyond Erin Gustofson's ass in those faded lime green dolphin shorts the TO Lancers double X teams used to wear, to come out of the Conejo Valley!

        Here it goes:
        Pearls before swine, but I digress.

        I'm not concerned. The B12 is getting one shot at BYU before something pretty cool might happen.

        BYU is in a far better position than most really understand.

        Later, folks.
        A month ago, you were definitely unhappy with the admin. I guess something's changed?

        In terms of "cool things" let me let my imagination run wild.

        Notre Dame and BYU form an alliance. Notre Dame sends non football sports to Big XII. BYU sends basketball to Big East. Non money making sports (i.e. everything else) stay with our Catholic friends in the WCC. BYU gets the same BCS deal that Notre Dame gets, as well as better bowl deals. Big XII agrees to schedule a few games with us to help us with our scheduling woes.

          Better yet, God returns to earth and repeals: Thou Shalt Not Committ Adultery! He also instructs an angel with a flaming sword to tell Scarlett Johannson that her head will be chopped off if she does not agree to becoming my second wife!

              I added this as an addendum to my patriarchal blessing years ago. You will have to find someone else to capitulate to your advances. Rapture indeed!

                Why would you want her to be your second wife if she could cheat on you? Scratch the repeal on the adultery ban and stick with sanctioned polygamy. That's the better scenario.

                    What's wrong with this alliance.

                    For BYU: A better basketball conference. A BCS deal. Better football scheduling gets.

                    For Notre Dame: hmm, what exactly do they get out of it?

                    This is definitely the kind of alliance BYU fans would dream up and post on an internet forum.

                      Look, nobody wants to be your 2nd wife I am just looking out for the both of us. Everybody would want me because Army won 3 Heisman's, two MNCs, has more Rhodes Scholars than any school not named Harvard or Yale and its incoming freshman have super high SAT scores. I am not sure what any of this indicates about ME, but I am pretty sure it will always mean that chicks will dig me!

                        No, what is really happening is that BYU has created a 32 team playoff and they will be announcing it sometime later.

                        stay tuned...

                          So much that an angel with a flaming sword has to force women to marry you.

                            With the repeal to the ban on adultery, she could be lots of people's second wife. This makes perfect sense...
