A nice write-up considering how CFN typically trashes BSU (see their weekly and final rankings).

I seriously want what he's smoking because it must be some BW'n good BW. I seriously can't believe that he believes the stuff that comes pouring out of his mouth....

As quoted from the article..."In last year's memo, Hancock wrote that the BCS attorneys "have advised that in the unlikely event that the conferences' creation of the BCS were to be considered unlawful, it is probable that any other such arrangement - including a playoff - also would be unlawful. Based on conversations with many university presidents, we believe the likely outcome of a finding against the BCS would be a return to the old bowl system which was built upon individually negotiated agreements between conferences and bowls." "

The articles goes on to tell how he (and the BCS for that matter) thinks that there's nothing that the govt. can legally do...

Normally I don't post stuff from CFN over here too often simply because they're a bunch of inbred twits. But this time around, I couldn't pass this article up. Pete Fiutak, for once, argues for BSU's inclusion into the NCG.

I get the feeling he puked in his mouth a tad bit when he was done writing the article...

BSU climbs to #5 in the poll.

*UPDATE* BSU is at 5 in the AP poll as well.

And here is the break-out of how the AP voters voted for BSU. Craig "I'm a freaking geniousmoron" James is up to his shenanigans again...

And finally, here's the Harris Poll. I'd list the BCS Poll, but someone beat me to it (stupid time difference...grrr...).

With the loss of WIsky and OU, we go from playin in the Sugar Bowl to playing for it all. I don't get these CFN guys...very bipolar....

While the rumors of us going to the BLE, both sides have some reservations. Obviously the key points are the league's stability, for BSU, and travel distance, BLE presidents. I think the invite will be forthcoming...but that's JMHO.

BSU comes in ranked at 5th in the nation in terms of awesomeness in the backfield. I bet the Muscle Hamster says, "ONLY fifth???" (with a Gary Coleman "Whatcha talkin' 'bout, Willis" glare)

It's been awhile since I posted anything. I ran across this NY TImes article on BSU's success in the polls/performance while recruiting what many consider "lesser" players.

She lists Kaep as the Offensive MVP for the non-AQ schools. I can stomach that...barely. But most glaring is naming Ault as "Best Coach". Seriously? Seriously? WTF, Chuck?

Quick! Someone take away that Jim Jones refreshment cup from her before commits suicide with that loaned Pistol. And here we thought we'd gotten rid of a Nevada crush. Boy howdy, were we wrong!

Looks like OBNUG is making the big-time now. It pays to have well-known national sports journalists following you on Twitter it appears. Congrats Kevan!

You know we're on historic grounds when one of America's top newspapers is tracking our title hunt, even if we have a slim chance to actually play for the title. But nevertheless it's still pretty cool that they're following BSU like this. They don't normally do this, so I give it 2 thumbs-up.

USA Today Coaches poll is out. Still number 3 and 100 points behind Ohio State. TCU stays steady but gets leaped by Oregon. Nevada makes a top-25 appearance and VaTech is still getting a couple votes.

Here's the AP top-25. Still #3, but TCU and Oregon flip-flop spots.

Here is CBSSportsline top-25. No change for us there, either.

And finally, CFN's top-25. I know...it's CFN, but it's read by a lot of people.

Good story on Kellen.

I hope so. We may need to beat the stuffing out of every team we play just to make a BCS bowl game. I've only ever had one real complaint about Coach Pete and that's been his knack for calling off the dogs, sometimes way too early.

Barring any mental farts, BSU looks to be favored over Wyoming by more than 3 scores.

UPDATE: BSU stays at #3 in the AP Poll, but loses 7 of 8 first place votes.

Although our lead over Texas went from 40 points to 16. But so far, the damage isn't anywhere near as bad as I thought.

Jesus...the game isn't even 8 hours old and Matt Hayes from The Sporting News writes this garbage. It almost makes you wonder if the BCS gurus have some of the media writers in their pockets.

Also, here is a link to the AccuScore game forecast.

Can't believe gameday is here finally! God...I need some Tums...

Not sure if this guy is being serious, but if he is...wow. Just wow.

And another of the typical BSU haters...

Could it be that the WAC Commissioner's office is repossessing stuff to finance the WAC's survival? LOL Too BW funny!

Mssrs. Fiutak and Cirminiello of CFN. I'd include Herbie, but we all know he's a BCS-appolgistic moron.

By far THE worst top-25 I've seen thusfar this year. I think an untrained monkey could put together a better top-25 than this "college football analyst" at the four-letter network. All I can say to sum it up is....wow. Just wow.

Nice write-up on Coach Pete, Kellen and BSU recruiting.

Not sure if this was posted earlier by someone else. If so...my appologies. Slow day of work for me. LOL

And who's ahead of BSU? Two teams BSU beat last year that had better returning players: TCU (#3) and Oregon (#5). Also ahead of BSU that's questionable: Oklahoma (#4) (who lost to BYU who was bushwacked by TCU who lost to BSU) and Miami (#6). Rounding out the top 7 are the number 1 and 2 teams: Alabama (#1) and Ohio St. (#2).

This Joey Johnston guy must be covered in tarballs to think this top 7 makes any sense. The only sensible ones are #1 and #2. The rest? I think Kevan's 1 year old prognosticator could do better.
