NCAA football, 2013-14

Looks like Baylor might not pull this off..

I hope UCF holds on...my brother went there and might be their biggest fan...for 10 years he has been obsessed with getting in a BCS conference, and they finally do...but just for this one year. If they lose this game, what can they do? Hang a banner that "AAC champs"? No one would really care. Fiesta Bowl winners would mean something.

Baylor can at least take pride in winning the Big 12.

You may very well be right

It's more likely he's underrating their opponents.

I'm not saying they aren't good. But they were supposedly a top 5 team. They lost to a Utah team that didn't make a bowl and a 4 loss USC team.

Toss out the Oregon game, and what game makes you step back and go, "yep, that is a top 5 team"?

I leave for pasadena at noon tomorrow...aar to follow

I'm glad to see a Spartan victory.  I thought they were going to win after every sports writer in the Detroit Free Press picked Stanford.

I thought the Baylor-UCF game looked a lot more like a Division-2 game then a BCF Bowl.  All the local news stations went nuts over the UCF win.

Baylor played like they had taken a month off or something.  Needless to say everybody was pretty disappointed by how badly they played.  Art Briles publicly apologized.  That was a new one.

I wasn't.

I hope Alabama takes out all their anger and rage about missing the NC game on the Dirt Burglars tonight.  It'd be a bummer if they came out flat or just decided they didn't want to really be there and Stoops got a BCS win.

I wasn't.   

I meant everybody who was a fan of Baylor

OSU Beaver and Biletnikoff winner Brandin Cooks declared for the draft today.

Apparently he opened his press conference with an all time great line:

"I'll always be a beaver until the day I die. I'll always drink that beaver juice no matter where I'm at."

This would be a perfect time to be having the BCS games in outdoor stadiums up north. 

Did you see that Wings-Leafs game they had in Ann Arbor? So awesome.

48 points at half time. This sucks. They should be out in the snow.

Football scores are approaching basketball in some cases. And this is with the clock rule changes from a few years ago shortening the games. It is past time to evaluate whether all the offensive favorable rule changes need to be balanced a bit.

See all these kids and their high school marching bands on the field. My school did that. I went to a bowl game every year in HS. You have to win marching band contests to get there though.
