HuskerNMO Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Nebraska gets jumped by Michigan State and South Carolina, but Wisconsin falls from 6th to 15th. We are now 14th. Quote Link to comment

JJ Husker Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I know it doesn't work this way but I find it comical that a Wisconsin team, that treated us like their biatch, is now ranked behind us when their only shortcoming thus far was a closely contested game against MSU that ended in the fluke manner it did. I'm sorry but Nebraska has shown no signs of playing at the same level of either of those 2. Hopefully the Huskers can change my perception issues this week. 1 Quote Link to comment

It's the BCS, I've given up trying to rationalize the rankings it spits out. Quote Link to comment
Excel Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 One day we'll look back and laugh at the BCS. I mean really, we let some magical computer system combined with polls and a few numbers a guy in his mother's basement provides us determine which teams are the best in the country? Really? Playoffs please... 1 Quote Link to comment

bbhusker Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Oklahoma State had better not lose a game or Boise might be in it... As much as I hate to say it........I kinda want to see it just so Boise fans can get their mouths shut once and for all. Whoever they would end up playing would hang 50+ on them.

A playoff system is better for college football in every single way, but don't tell all the people getting rich off the BCS system that. which is crazy because a playoff would be so huge, everyone would watch. you just name the playoff games after the bcs bowls, allow 8-12 teams into the playoffs, and then allow all the rest of the teams to play in bowls like they usually would. start the bowls with a playoff game, have playoff games each weekend with bowls in between.

chamrocck Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I've never wanted a large playoff...maybe a +1 or Final Four at most because then the regular season means less. The OU loss yesterday or the upcoming Alabama-LSU game would not mean as much. Our loss to Wisconsin would be less meaningful and so would Wisconsin's loss yesterday. But instead a regular Saturday in October was jaw-dropping AMAZING because of the OU-Texas Tech game and MSU-Wisc game. This is a major reason I am only a casual observer of the NFL until playoff time...but I leave and breathe college football on Saturdays. We can always nit pick at the polls (some of that computer stuff seems out of whack...A&M #10???)... but heck, I don't think Wisconsin should be behind us...they killed us and lost on a hail mary incredible last play. South Carolina? Sure maybe we should be a head of them but it is not a big deal as there are too many games left. Quote Link to comment

This argument is so old, especially when everyone claims it will happen every time Boise plays a 'legitimate' team, and they win almost every time. They're a better football team than Nebraska, that's for certain. Quote Link to comment
