Stanford is The Only Team That Can Give LSU/Bama A Run For It's Money

Clemsons last 2 games have gone over 90.

So one rough outing from Oklahoma & Boise and you've written them off as garbage?

Oklahoma has no chance to make it anyways, that's why I'm not discussing it (no point really)

I actually think Boise would give them a good game but they have no chance to make it either because of their schedule. I put zero stock in what happened with Boise today, they just struggled with a gimmick offense they won't face again the rest of the year

NYSportsGuy210 · 10-22-11, 11:27 PM

LSU and Alabama are better than Boise St. For sure

stanford won't even beat oregon

suicidekings · 10-22-11, 11:32 PM

After LSU/Alabama play, one will have a loss and it could speak a lot in the rankings if the win is lopsided, knocking the loser out of second place. I doubt Stanford survives Oregon, and an undefeated Boise or Clemson could absolutely sneak in the door. The margin of victory in the big game could create opportunities for several teams.

Hell, OK State could sneak in if they manage to go undefeated.

NYSportsGuy210 · 10-22-11, 11:33 PM

Actually Boise might not beat Oregon. And Id take Oregon to beat Oklahoma.

You realize Stanford is at home in that matchup right??? They win by least 2 scores

Stanford looks way stronger than last year and Oregon looks a lot weaker than last year IMO - their secondary looked soft as hell against ASU

suicidekings · 10-22-11, 11:45 PM

If Oregon and Stanford played today, I would make Stanford a -7 fave at home. You're undervaluing Oregon.

I'd say closer to - 10... either way Stanford will win

they dominated the matchup last year early in the game before they collapsed in the second half... Stanford won't collapse at home

It totally depends on current form. Texas Tech isn't better than Oklahoma but look at what's happening. Tech came in prepared and OU came out flat, and they've been struggling to keep up for the entire game.

Stanford vsOregon....id bet the OVER

iceminers26 · 10-23-11, 12:22 AM

why don't we fk over Boise again, its like an annual tradition... they have a solid D and one of the best offenses in the country, they deserve it and when they do actually get their shot in the big game, they won't dissappoint

can't wait to hear numbnuts response to this one

BettingWizard · 10-23-11, 12:24 AM

boise ****** themselves as a 15 pt favorite last year

BernardMadoff · 10-23-11, 12:25 AM

Sick of Boise not getting respect, hope this year is their year.

yes Boise did themselves in last year with that Nevada game in LV but their were a couple years where they ran the table and got left out, one was when everyone was talking up Oklahoma as the best team in the country and they dropped a game and got matched up against Boise in the bowl game that year, we all know how that turned out for the Sooners.

DerekMadden · 10-23-11, 12:37 AM

for the love of God, let's just put Boise in for one year against LSU/Bama so everybody can see just how OVERRATED they are.. 9/10 BCS Championships are blowouts anyway, why not just hand the trophy over to the team that won it on Nov. 5 and let everybody see why Boise should never be in ANY BCS talk

iceminers26 · 10-23-11, 12:41 AM

lol, the year Boise beat Oklahoma in the bowl game, they could have beaten any team in the country... heck the whole world was already crowning that Sooner team until they dropped a game late in the season and Boise took care of them.

heck I honestly think this year's squad could beat LSU or Bama but you like most like to knock the little guy, not their fault who's on their conference schedule, they schedule SEC and other big name conferences and their out of conference schedule and beat them but you don't want to hear that.

Bad comparison.. Oklahoma can't win a BCS game anyway

Review of Stanford's schedule

2 SEC are in a league of their own. OkState, Wisc, Ok, Boise, Stan are about level and all way behind

well said man. i have been saying this shit for years but everyone has some bullshit excuse about why boise can't hang with the "big boys". i don't know what else they can do besides smash everyone they fukking play, right?

no, you just don't want to accept that boise is better than arkansas.

Sunde91 · 10-23-11, 12:56 AM

lol Boise

this is the team who plays teams like San Jose State, Air Force, Fresno, etc. 11 of 12 games every single year with 1 above average BCS school

there's no chance of having 2 SEC teams in the bcs title game

people need to stop with that pipe dream. There's no way they are gonna put in an SEC team with a late loss in over an undefeated Stanford/Boise/Clemson

a late loss in the season is just absolute death in the current BCS system, even if that loss is to the green bay packers in wisconsin by 3 points while your backup QB plays the whole game

Sunde91 · 10-23-11, 01:09 AM

brahmbitch I said it would be 2 SEC?

you said the ONLY team like a god damned idiot when Stan has done nothing and there are other contenders

Inkwell77 · 10-23-11, 04:54 AM

There is a 0% chance that Stanford will be 10 point favorites over Oregon. That line will be less than 7.

Well I guess my nut's are numb, Boise needs to pay their due's as Fla St. did in the 80's. Playing 1 or 2 big boy teams does not a season make. They control their schedule, schedule big boy's, go on the road, pay your due's at least 4 or 5 times a year. I would love to see Boise play against Bama/Lsu for the championship. Boise would get destroyed. Everyone else in the NCAA has to account for strength of schedule so does Boise, just the way it is.

Ice House · 10-27-11, 01:41 PM

Oklahoma State, Clemson, Boise State are all better than Stanford.

dmncnlou · 10-27-11, 01:57 PM

Alabama and LSU would make NFL scouts doubtful of drafting Andrew Luck no.1!

Romocide · 10-27-11, 02:02 PM

It wouldn't surprise me if Stanford lost to USC this weekend. They are a good team, don't get me wrong, but they're not a great team. I can't see them beating Oregon, even at home.

Title game is going to be Stanford, Oregon, or OSU vs Alabama. Y'all know it. And how is Stanford anything but a great team? You can't name 10 better teams, and if that's the case, then you're a great team.

And Brahma it's funny to see you making this thread since you faded alot of earlir Stanford picks like Stanford-Colorado, lol. Welcome to the wagon
