THANK YOU!!!

I thought Virginia Tech had an easy schedule this year until I started looking around at other schools conferences (like WVU). They litteraly have a cake walk, but thank goodness that strength of schedule still influences the coaches somewhat, even though it isn't part of the BCS. I do not understand how they can be ranked so high, just because the Big Least used to be a good conference.

Lets hope that Louisville can beat WVU and Miami!!!

EDIT: Who was the last team to beat WVU?

I'm sorry for you...since Friedgen isn't that great of a head coach, let alone being OC and head coach! VT did the same thing to UMD the past two years! UMD has a very tough schedule ahead, well maybe after FIU

its not that WVU is overrated... its that the Big East in general is out of its league. The Big East should never ever EVER receive a BCS bid. Ever.

I wouldn't go that far but they should be stripped of their automatic bid. The BE was only added to get Miami.

ya, Virginia Tech had nothing to do with that

edit: actually I have no idea when the BE was offered a BCS bid... cause tech has really only been legit since Vick started in 99

Fast forward to the present, I think the ACC should be stripped of its bid after its play this year. Holy sht, what a bunch of cupcake teams they have this year!! hahahaha. Powerhouse conference my ass.

WVU will play OSU for the national title. Troy Smith will edge Slaton out for the Heisman and the Buckeyes will win. You heard it here first.

SEC fanboys sit down, WVU won your stupid conference last year when they upset UGA (the SEC champs) and Slaton set the Sugar Bowl rushing record.

The Big East is here to stay and the ACC are the new whipping boys (witness UMD and Miami as the latest casualties). Hell even Rutgers is ranked in the top 25.

2 decent years for the Big East and they're now a powerhouse conference? They have a long ways to go before approaching the status of Big 10/Big 12/ACC/SEC status.

You should address what I said, which is that the ACC are the new whipping boys of the powerhouse conferences. You know it's bad when CLEMSON and WAKE are your 2 best teams.

Speaking of which, wth happened with Miami? Fcking thugs is what they are, that team should be suspended for the year (along with FIU).

I dont give a sh!t WVU is undefeated. Every team in the top ten could be them, so no they shouldnt be ranked #2, and even if they go undefeated they wont be in the BCS Championship game.

Well we'll see if your statement holds true when WVU plays another top 10 team in Louisville.

You make it sound like they've played a Top 10 team already.

WVU's games thus far:

09/02 Marshall
09/09 E Wash
09/14 Maryland
09/23 at E Carolina
10/07 at Miss St
10/14 Syracuse

BS they won't play for the national title, USC will lose to ND or Cal, and Michigan plays OSU. So smart guy, who does that leave undefeated aside from WVU? Michigan or OSU, thanks for enlightening us.

huh? Where did you get that from? You said any Top 10 team can beat WVU so I replied we'll find out if that's true when they play another top 10 in Louisville. "When" means in the future not they already played. How can you possibly interpret that to mean they've already played Louisville or a top 10 team?

Umm unless they changed it, it doesnt matter if you are undefeated. You have to be ranked #1 or #2 in the BCS to get to the championship game. Auburn has 1 loss and is ranked ahead of WVU and will stay there unless they lose again which I wouldnt count on it.

OSU or Michigan, the loser of their game, will still be ranked ahead of WVU in the BCS due to the computers.

For WVU to get to the title game, they will need Auburn to lose another game, USC to lose two games, and Ohio State of Michigan to lose two games.

Hell, I can see the championship game with two 11-1 teams. With WVU getting snubbed because of the BCS computers and their pathetic schedule.

To me it's worded poorly. Something like "play a Top 10 team in Louisville"...playing "another Top 10 team" to me sounds like you've play against a Top 10 opponent already.

Like all of the analysts on Gameday said on ESPN last night, if WVU doesn't get a title shot after going undefeated and everyone else has 1 loss, then something is seriously wrong with the system (or take away the Big East BCS bid). There's no way the national title game will be OSU and Michigan, even if the computers put them 1-2. NO WAY. To reiterate, the title game will not be a rematch of 2 teams that have already played. If USC loses to Notre Dame, that will be enough for WVU to jump them in the polls, they may end up 3rd but will still get a share of the national title.

I dont know, Ive seen more analysts say a 1 loss Michigan, USC, OSU, Auburn, Florida, would deserve a shot over WVU.

Im sorry, 12-0 vs a cupcake schedule does not warrant a title shot, and it won't. This is why we really need a playoff system. All these teams that play cupcaks schedules, always whine when they have the potential to go undefeated.

Heres a clue, if WVU had played a tough nonconf opponent and beaten them, yeah Id say sure go ahead, let them be in the championship game. But the only decent team they are playing this year is Louisville.

Hell IMHO if Texas A&M manages to win out, which is a very real possibility, and go 11-1, they deserve a shot over WVU. Why? They will have been one of two teams to beat 4 ranked opponents, the other being OSU if they beat Mich. Sure the Big 12 is weak this year, but Id take a team with wins over Texas, OU, and Nebraska, over a team with a win over Lousiville.

How do you know they are good?

Let see them vs Florida, Auburn, Texas, Notre Dame, or USC.

They wont, 12-0 doesnt mean ****** unless you play a quality schedule. They haven't played a quality schedule. WVU has no right to say they deserve ****** until they start playing tough non confrence schedules, since their conference is a lower tier conference with the loss of BC, VT, and Miami.

Hell Boise State is likely to win out, should they be there too, if they are the only undefeated team?

I agree the BCS is f'ed up, mean look at number 25 in the BCS standings, Tulsa, they have played the likes of North Texas, and they have 1 loss. There are teams that have beaten ranked opponents that have 1 lost to ranked opponents and arent in the BCS top 25. However flawed the BCS is WVU wouldnt make it to the championship game if there was a playoff so I dont care if they(or louisville) get left out in the cold in favor of a superior team with 1 loss.

Hell Boise State is likely to win out, should they be there too, if they are the only undefeated team?
WVU would wreck any of the teams you mentioned, none of them have the defense to stop WVU's high powered spread. Hell, USC and Ohio State came to Morgantown to study it in the offseason. The heart of their offense all run a 4.37 40 or less (except QB Pat White@4.42): Slaton, Myles (WR) and Reynaud (WR). Ever heard the saying speed kills? Now their defense is a diff story, they are vulnerable on pass D (hmmm Notre Dame anyone?). Their offense is so utterly fast that they can break any play for a TD. No other team from your "list" has that capability (and only OSU is as dangerous on O).

Pretty funny you saying the BlahzAY-CC is a higher tier in football than the Big East, hahaha. Rutgers is ranked higher than everyone in the ACC (16th) except Clemson (12th), who almost lost to WAKE FOREST. LoL, what a joke the ACC has become, especially Miami. Miami could have at least acted competitive to help Louisville (who whipped them) and WVU's SoS's, but we can't even rely on them for that.

How do you know they are good?

Let see them vs Florida, Auburn, Texas, Notre Dame, or USC.

They wont, 12-0 doesnt mean ****** unless you play a quality schedule. They haven't played a quality schedule. WVU has no right to say they deserve ****** until they start playing tough non confrence schedules, since their conference is a lower tier conference with the loss of BC, VT, and Miami.

To be honest, I'd take Auburn or Florida against WVU. Why? The amount of speed on their defenses. The way to beat Auburn & Florida isn't with these spread option gimicky offenses...you beat them by lining up and attacking the middle of the defense because their defenses are built for speed and quickness not grind out slugfests with big offensive linemen.
