Feds to NCAA: Why no playoffs?

[PP]

How did you get out so quick.

 

[bucky]

The point is if they don't play anyone to begin with that they shouldn't be there at all. I'd take a 9-3 South Carolina over a 13-0 Boise who's toughest opponent lost to James Madison.

So you don't have any problem with a playoff system. You would only have a problem with which teams may get selected for the playoffs. Right? Wrong?

How did you get out so quick.

Historically, VSN doesn't ban over differing opinions. Let's hope VSN isn't turning all LATE MM on us.

 

[FirstTimer]

Because you are so god damn ignorant you refuse to look at anything with an open mind.

LOL.

Says the guy who makes unfounded accusations of Boise not trying to schedule tougher teams, get into other conferences etc.

I've heard your saem close minded shit headed argument around here for years. At this point I'm pretty much copying and pasting responses from 2009.

Makes perfect sense: You don't play anyone thru the season you don't deserve to play an actual football team come bowl season. Simple as that.

Great, keep restatting it and miss the gigantic lapses in your logic of them trying to drop Idaho, actually beating many BCS level teams, and not realizing Boise has been offereing home and home series for years.

You probably would leave TCU out, too. I mean, no way they could beat a team like, say, Wisconsin.

And you probably would have left out Boise a few years back, too. Put Oklahoma in there instead, they played a man's schedule!

 

[Sharkweather]

Exactly and who did Boise play to get beat up and battered and make it an equal game? Oklahoma had a grueling Big 12 schedule boise didn't play shit. Advantage Boise.

This argument really holds no value since every team in a BCS bowl gets a month off before the game.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

Your lack of ability of basic reading comprehension blows my mind.

I know they have offered but they wait too damn late. Even at that 1 game against a plausible opponent still isn't enough when they have 10 cupcakes on their schedule. As much as people as yourself want to bitch at a team like Bama for playing a Georgia State University that you are ignoring that Boise plays 10 slightly better teams a year and thinks they deserve to play with the big boys. Regardless of talent, past suceess in big games, etc, no they do not deserve to be on the national stage until they play a very much similar BCS Conference schedule.

Good points! Look how horrible it has turned out for basketball, letting all of these teams from small leagues into the postseason. People hate it. Those teams don't deserve the national stage! Play someone, pussies!

How do they play that schedule when nobody will play them? lol. you fail so much.

Completely false. Nebraska and Boise were talking about a series before last season that started in 2014 and would have been a three game set.

Boise already has some BCS schools scheduled 3-4 years out.

Again. PROVE they wait too long.

.

Even at that 1 game against a plausible opponent still isn't enough when they have 10 cupcakes on their schedule

Yet you have the retarded reaction of getting pissy about Boise dropping Idaho so they can schedule more BCS conference teams.
Essentially you are saying Boise State should increase the number of BCS teams they play....while not dropping any of the cupcake teams. You keep on being retarded.

 

[Rush]

No.

You're a clown because your argument: either makes no sense, is based on unproven assumptions, or lack basic logic.

In all fairness, anybody who opposes you on any subject, ranging from football to bottled water preference is a "fucking wackjob moron"

 

[NAHSTE]

You'll have to forgive amarant ... Alabama fans are kind of partial to their 40 unofficial national titles and never want to see the format standardized.

 

[Rush]

I'm sure they can find people that aren't UC Davis. I mean they have Georgia this year and Ole Miss in 3 or 4 years. I'm sure if they look they can find it.

Coming from a business perspective, any program that puts Boise State on it's schedule without having to is retarded. You may think that watching football is all about entertainment but for them it's about #'s and money. If I am Big Program A, I am not going to schedule Boise. If I go undefeated and lose to them, I could be out of the national championship game.

Do you know the difference between playing in a National Championship game and the Papa John's Pizza Bowl?

It's all about business. If a big team DID want to play Boise, they would have to pay out the ass to get them on the schedule. Compiling schedules and shit....teams pay other teams to play them. For instance Alabama puts Duke on their schedule....why would Duke want to play a top 5 team in the country?

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

:yeah:

Just a small perspective of shit I picked up on the sports management side of the discussion.

 

[Senser81]

Remember when Rush would troll MM as Marshall? Now that Rush his divested his interest in VSN, could amarant = Marshall? Just a thought.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

Amazing.

You act as if Oklahoma just stepped off a plane from battling Al Queda in Iraq, while Boise was playing flag football against guys in a 40 and up league.

Besides, the entire basis of you argument is that Boise doesn't even belong on the same field as the Cartel "big boys". You would think a a game played a month earlier wouldn't have enough of an impact in such an epic mismatch.

Get lost with this nonsense.

 

[Senser81]

It has absolutely nothing to do with me being an Alabama fan at all. It has to do with common sense. An LSU plays a schedule infinitely more tough than Boise. If LSU goes 9-3 I think that is much more impressive than a team of the same talent(theoretical) in Boise running 13-0 with 10 blowouts because they played in a very weak conference and had a very weak OOC schedule. They should not get priority to even get into a playoff because then they have much less miles on their season than the guys at LSU do and if they are of the same talent, month off or not, Boise would still have the fresher personnel. Which then you are getting into a territory in which its much more favorable for a team like Boise who never plays anyone to begin with to win out.

What if Boise goes 13-0 with 13 blowouts? Does that change things?

 

[PP]

i only went back the last two years but the SEC is 11-7 in bowl games I believe. If someone else wants to go back further but SEC isn't even that strong anymore. I think SEC teams are way over-rated.

Its because of those grueling games they played a month and a half earlier.

Duh.

But really, as an LSU fan who has seen my team benefit greatly from the screwy system twice in my lifetime*, I'd love to see playoffs.

I get what you are saying, and nobody would ever dare argue that the SEC slate isn't the most grueling in the country ... but if we're so tough and superior to everyone else, I say fine let's line 'em up.

Put a trophy on the line and let me play these supposed weak sisters of the poor in a round one game. Then let me run rough shod through the shithouse Big Ten or Pac-12 teams we make fun of so often. If the SEC is as tough as we hope/think/boast that is, there should be no problems.

As a fan of the sport though, I just want more compelling and legitimized competition.

And what's the record in BCS Bowl Games again?

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

Yeah but Boise sure could try lobbying to get into a conference that plays tougher games rather than move to conference in which all the plausible teams are bailing out. They didn't even give it a chance to get invited to the new PAC 12. Just jumped WAC to MWC as fast as they could. Almost like they are avoiding trying to get a tough schedule.

They jumped to the MWC before the other teams bailed, brainiac.

 

[Rush]

Playoffs need to happen.

Fuck discussion of Boise/LSU/SEC/your opinion. We need playoffs so Appalachian State can show all you faggots what is up.
