Ron Dayne was fat and slow. TR is a beast of a man. The only concern I have about TR is he is TOO violent. I would wonder if he makes it to his second contract.

The problem with this "request" is that the kid made it public. If he had said "Hey, there is this friend of mine you should look at too (wink)". And then left, Dabo could have made the decision without the public scrutiny.

As it is now, it looks like Clemson is so desperate for the kid they will give 3 or 4 scholarships for him. That doesn't speak well for the program.

Ask yourself WWSD? (What would Saban Do?) The answer is clear, Kennan Allan demanded Bama give Zack Maynard an offer or he would walk. Allan and Maynard are now playing for a terrible Cal team.

I just think playing terrible teams and winning means you aren't terrible. it doesn't mean you are good.

BEAT the best to BE the best.

Agreed. Teams flying to Boise would have a tough game @Boise. But traveling cross country for 1 game a year is a lot different than traveling cross country for 4 games a year.

Back to back road games for Bama, 4 hr plane trip to Boise then a 1 hour plane ride to Baton Rouge.

Back to back for Boise, two 4 hour plane trips.

It would be 4 times harder on Boise than it would be on any other team.

I know the game would be different. Win? never know. They would have had a better chance if he was still in the game.

But Texas was a lot like Florida that year. But Tebow was tougher to stop than McCoy and Florida had a better run defense. It would have been closer, but not definite Texas winning.

Agreed. It would also require Boise to travel a lot more. Ever try back-to-back in LSU and Florida from Boise? YUCK!

The other thing is that Boise would be a tough sale to southern boys.

For the conversation, I basically assume. 1) no travel problems. 2) no change in players over the last 4 years.

USC is 8-1 against UCLA (not exactly "always"). Texas had a excellent team in 2009. McCoy made beating Bama impossible. Quality opponent, tough break. OU still makes it to the BCS most years and has good coaches and great talent.

If all your opponents suck, is winning worth while?

So unlikely that my point is "completely valid" by most "reasonable" standards.

Posted Friday December 23, 2011, About: The biggest story in college football?

Also, USC, Texas and Oklahoma don't "suck". They may cheat. but the players on the field year in and year out are some of the best in college ball.

Posted Friday December 23, 2011, About: The biggest story in college football?

never said they were "choir boys".

I have seen refs turn a game. but 22 points? no way. 44 points? NO WAY IN HELL!

The point that was made.

"If LSU, Bama and Florida could dominate the SEC, So could Boise"

My Counter point.

LSU, Bama and Florida are programs with big money coaches (Head and Assistants) and the best athletes (not just starters but backups).

Boise does not have the same characteristics which allow them to dominate.

I will agree that these are not the only programs like this around the country. USC, Texas, Oklahoma,etc are all similar. But not Boise.

Posted Friday December 23, 2011, About: The biggest story in college football?

Wow! you consider losing by over 3TDs "close"? I guess Florida was in every game then.

Posted Friday December 23, 2011, About: The biggest story in college football?

don't need to be "legitimate". Arguing #1 vs #3 in recruiting is "subjective". But comparing Top 10 to mid 50s is normally pretty clear. Throw in the fact that the players are going on to be NFL draft picks means that the rankings do have merit.

Although you can always call out 1 or 2 players that flopped/succeeded.

Posted Friday December 23, 2011, About: The biggest story in college football?

Sure you can do it if you have the best coaches (Miles, Meyer and Saban), pay your coordinators $750K+, the best recruiting classes (Top 10 every year) and loaded with NFL talent (Bama has had 7 first round picks).

Last time I checked, Boise has none of those.

Exactly what about Wyoming being hammered by Temple and Utah State is "opinion" based?

Posted Friday December 23, 2011, About: The biggest story in college football?

But if you play 45 crap teams and 8 good teams and never play decent teams back-to-back. It is more like you are a good team beating up on terrible competition and not really a GREAT team.

Which is why BSU isn't "jobbed by the BCS", beating 1 good team + 11 cupcakes doesn't qualify you for the BSC!

Posted Friday December 23, 2011, About: The biggest story in college football?

Yeah, they had a guy named Tim Tebow who was a pretty good player and went 26-2 in 2008, 2009.

Posted Friday December 23, 2011, About: The biggest story in college football?

yeah, you have no knowledge about football do you? People make points.

1) Boise State plays 10+ terrible teams a year. Therefore 50-3 is not impressive.
2) Wyoming is the 3rd best team they play and Wyoming lost to Temple and Utah State.

Your Reply:

Your team sucks!

Are you 10 years old? or just stupid?
