Prediction #63: Boise State will create another headache for the BCS. The past four years their regular season records have been 9-3, 12-0, 10-2, and 12-0. That first 12-0 season was capped off by a Fiesta Bowl victory over Oklahoma. Last year they went 12-0, were ranked in the top 10, and got left out of the BCS club. They have a track record for being a nuisance to the BCS. This year, at 12-1 they would likely be in the top 10 again (though probably as the second highest non-BCS team, behind the winner of BYU-TCU). Could the BCS leave them out again? What happens if they go 13-0, with a victory over a 2nd or 3rd place in the Pac 10 Oregon? They would likely be in the top 4 (or higher). Could they make a push for the National Championship game? Either way, at 12-1 or 13-0, they will be a headache for the BCS powers that be. 9 weeks from today, we'll know a lot more about the Broncos.
I was waiting for another prediction on this game as well. We don't want discussion, we want prediction. I will take Oregon. How about you?
ReplyDeleteI wasn't predicting the outcome of that individual game, I was predicting the headache Boise State will cause the BCS...although my gut tells me the Blue Turf reigns supreme over the quacky Yellow uniforms...
