College Football...

<p>Nebraska is in the middle of a complete change in culture. People who aren't from here and watch the program on a day to day basis don't understand just how far things had fallen...Last year was only the second year of change in two completely incompatible offenses. Things are going to hum for the huskers this year and we will win the Big XII North this year. We even have a decent shot at Texas since we play them in Lincoln.</p>

<p>Wisconsin?!? please...storied football tradition only extends those past 15 years since Barry Alavarez (a former Nebraska player I might add) showed up. Before that you guys had all the football tradition and success of Vanderbilt, with none of the southern charm and a goofier accent.</p>

<p>Bottom Line, SEC is the best conference top to bottom most years (but not always). You can't point to one school in a conference being successful and say that automatically makes the rest of the conference "not soft". It doesn't make any sense.</p>

<p>Ohh win the Big 12 North, thats a big accomplishment.</p>

<p>SEC is the best conference, but not top to bottom. Their good teams are great, but the bottom half is absolutely pathetic.</p>

<p>Just taking into account of who won the bcs title game, since 1998:</p>

<p>1998-Tennessee (SEC)
1999-Florida State (ACC)
2000-Oklahoma (Big 12)
2001-Miami (now ACC)
2002-OSU (Big 10)
2003-LSU (SEC)
2004-USC (Pac-10)
2005-Texas (Big 12)</p>

<p>Thats two different schools from each the SEC, ACC, and Big 12. If you look at the Pac-10, even taking into account USC's co-championship in '03, thats the only school from the Pac-10 to win the Championship in the past 9 years or so.</p>

<p>Now look at teams that made it to the title game but didnt win:
1998-Florida State
1999-Virginia Tech
2000-Florida State
2001-Nebraska
2002-Miami
2003-Oklahoma
2004-Oklahoma
2005-USC</p>

<p>I see 3 different ACC schools made it to the title game, 2 different Big 12 schools, but only one Pac-10 school.</p>

<p>And if you look at what team played in the most bcs games - FSU (ACC).</p>

<p>You had to bring up the LSU/USC thing didnt u? Well, u know that crystal ball that gets handed out to the NATIONAL CHAMPIONS at the end of the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME, its called the AP National Championship Trophy, and do u know who received it in 2003? Thats right, USC.</p>

<p>And what the **** FerstAmmendment, what do u want me to say? I already said I believe the SEC is the best conference...what else do u want?</p>

<p>Actaully, FSU didnt play in the most, it tied for the most, with Okiehoma and USC.</p>

<p>Is anyone excited about Rice vs. UCLA?</p>

<p>No?</p>

<p>Darn.</p>

<p>[color=red]'Actaully, FSU didnt play in the most, it tied for the most, with Okiehoma and USC.'[color]</p>

<p>Nope - FSU has played in the most BCS games to date. They have tied Oklahoma with the same record of Championship games, however. FSU is followed by Miami, another ACC team.</p>

<p>See: <a href="http://www.bcsfootball.org/bcsfb/alltime%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.bcsfootball.org/bcsfb/alltime&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Too bad it's a 1-5 record... :-(</p>

<p>Oops.</p>

<p>I want you to know that the Pac-10 isnt as good as you think</p>

<p>I really hope you are not a fan of the Big12 or think it's tougher than the SEC at the bottom.... If you are, though, I have one word for you: Colorado</p>

<p>The SEC is the toughest conference if they are playing at home... if Tennessee would have traveled to Berkeley to play, they would have lost to Cal. College football is so much more about home field advantage than anything else really. Thus, the reason Florida State has 8 home games this season vs. only 4 road games.</p>

<p>The team with the best venues will get more home games, bar none. Bobby Bowden Field holds over 80,000.</p>

<p>Earlier u said: "And if you look...", which to me meant: "If u look at the list that FerstAmmendment posted...". So actually, what I said was true.</p>

<p>When did I ever say the Big 12's bottom half is better than the SEC's? Thats craziness. But both bottom halves are pathetic.</p>

<p>Let's just settle this debate once and for all and just agree that the Big 10 is the best conference out there. Kthnx.</p>

<p>^^Agreed.
THE Ohio State University vs. Texas tomorrow!!
GO BUCKS!! Ah.. the suspense is killing me... it better be a good game as they are making it out to be...</p>

<p>Ya its definitely gonna be a good game but Texas is gonna come out on top because they have the more experienced defense and a great O-line.</p>

<p>You got to fight, fight, fight for FSU!
You got to scalp 'em Seminoles!
You got to win, win, win, win this game and
Roll on down to make those goals!
For FSU is on the warpath now,
and at the battle's end she's great.
So fight, fight, fight for victory,
the Seminoles of Florida State!
F-L-O-R-I-D-A......S-T-A-T-E
FLORIDA STATE!! FLORIDA STATE!! FLORIDA STATE!!
Woooooooooooooooo!!!!</p>

<p>The Big 10 can suck my balls</p>

<p>we may have played crappy last week but the canes are back on track.
Kyle Wright will be a Heisman candidate in a very short time</p>

<p>Yeah FSU is currently tied with Troy University...good work...</p>
