    So Louisville isn't a BCS Title Threat?
    Alabama <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_0" id="C_0"> -120
    Kansas State <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_8" id="C_8"> +250
    Notre Dame <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_7" id="C_7"> +300
    Oregon <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_2" id="C_2"> +350
    LSU <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_1" id="C_1"> +800
    Florida State <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_3" id="C_3"> +2000
    Georgia <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_4" id="C_4"> +2000
    Louisville <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_9" id="C_9"> +2000
    Florida <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_6" id="C_6"> +2500

    Boise State <input maxlength="5" size="4" name="C_10" id="C_10"> +8000

    looks like my bet at +8000 was pretty good

              Ok then, we'll see how that works out when you come up to the Dome.

                  Actually the best way is the following:

                  Alabama goes undefeated (scratches out all other SEC teams)
                  Oregon loses to USC, Oregon State, or Stanford (WILL HAPPEN)
                  Notre Dame loses on the road to USC (VERY LIKELY)
                  Kansas State loses somewhere (UNLIKELY)

                        Wish I could book this for +8000 myself, $100 minumum.

                        Did you not see the last game vs. a garbage Cincy squad led by Munchie? Being good in the big east does not equal being good.

                        This is coming from a guy who loves UL this year.

                          I disagree, basically the only crazy thing Louisville needs is Kansas State to slip up somewhere. Oregon is very unlikely to win all 3 of those games and USC is a completely different team at home

                            USC won't beat either ND or Oregon 2 loses that team will give up

                                when i play ncaa football for ps3 i always schedule a top 5ish team at the end of the year. that way if i take UConn or someone and i go like 11-0 sitting at #5 in the BCS i can take a shot at a LSU and if i win i get into the BCS title game. if i lose i still play in a BCS bowl.......in real life lou hasnt played anyone, isnt playing anyone and has zero shot at winning it all. highest they will get it #5 in BCS

                                  USC is done.

                                  If USC were to make a game of it, Kiffin's brain will be their undoing.

                                  You just saw them get beaten by a spread team with zero big time talent outside of the RB. Oregon, unlike Arizona, can outrun the USC players in a footrace.

                                  All this might be pointless if the computers fail to work.

                                      I am hoping Powell here is just a fan talking.

                                      You have a much better chance of winning the lottery.

                                      Syracuse is going to piss on your parade. I think you can handle UConn and Rutgers.

                                              A 1 or 2 loss SEC team would get a bowl bid over undefeated Louisville lol.

                                                Big east lost two undefeated teams to the MAC in the last two weeks, I think that sums it up.

                                                    Have you watched USC this year?

                                                    What about that team makes you think they can beat Oregon?

                                                    I'm not a big fan of comparative scoring, but I think you can learn something from the fact that Oregon beat Arizona 49-0, and USC lost to them. I think you could make a case that playing at Arizona State on the road, at night is tougher than playing USC in the Coliseum for a noon kickoff. And in that game, Oregon scored 43 points in the first 22 minutes.

                                                      Arizona competed well in the 1H actually was in the red zone 3 times in the 1Q just unlucky not to score. One mistake you can make is look at past results and think it has some sort of impact on the next game.

                                                        What about that team makes you think they can beat Oregon?

                                                        I'm not a big fan of comparative scoring, but I think you can learn something from the fact that Oregon beat Arizona 49-0, and USC lost to them. I think you could make a case that playing at Arizona State on the road, at night is tougher than playing USC in the Coliseum for a noon kickoff. And in that game, Oregon scored 43 points in the first 22 minutes.
                                                        The Arizona v. Oregon game score is extraordinarily misconstruing. Zona had the chance to go up 21 - 0 in the first minutes of that game with turnovers by Oregon in the redzone - and Arizona failed to put up a single point, which would have changed that game wildly.

                                                        I do agree that USC is not what everyone thought they would be. I want to make a comparison to the Saints in the NFL, where the public literally cannot get it out of heir head that this team is much worse than you (the public) thinks they are.

                                                        Also, I don't think Oregon cares about where they play. ASU at night in primetime, or the USC game that was circled since the schedule came out - it is going to be the same.

                                                        Oregon defense isn't terrible.

                                                        If USC wins this game, it is because of Oregon mistakes - which have happened all season long.

                                                          ZERO chance because their are SEVEN teams that would get in with one loss over an undefeated Louisville team.

                                                            Correction, EIGHT teams. The seven teams listed above them AND Florida would get in with one loss ahead of an undefeated Louisville.
