BCS Bowl Thoughts
The BCS Bowl Matchups were announced today and I would just like to give some insight and thoughts about it.
BCS National Title Game
The title game is LSU vs. Ohio St. This is who I predicted it was going to be after yesterdays games. Ohio St. is the most deserving, yes they don't have the toughest schedule out there but from watching them this year they are a great team. Their offense is pretty explosive and they have one of the best defenses in the country. I really think LSU deserves it as well, they played a very tough schedule and won their conference. They had big wins over Virginia Tech, Florida, Auburn, Tennessee, and South Carolina.
This is a perfect opportunity for OSU to avenge their BCS Title loss to Florida last year. All they're going to hear from now till the game is how they won't be able to match up with LSU and their speed. I think because of their loss last year, the Buckeyes will be very prepared for LSU come January 7.
Hawaii vs. Georgia
First off, I am glad to see Georgia in this game, they didn't deserve to play in the title game. I've said it before and I'll say it again, you don't win your conference championship then you don't deserve to play for a national championship, and when you have a system like the BCS then that's how it should be. A second place team shouldn't be playing for first place ever, period.
As for Hawaii I am glad to see them in this game. Another opportunity to see a mid-major go against one of the BCS Boys in Georgia. Hopefully Hawaii can pull it out like Boise St. did last year.
Kansas or Missouri?
Another problem I have here is Kansas getting in over Missouri. First of all Mizzou beat the Jayhawks head to head. Yes, Kansas has one loss but their strength of schedule is 109th (119 total) and Missouri is 25th. Missouri lost only twice and both times to Oklahoma. I guess the BCS is praising wins over Florida International, SE Louisiana, and Toledo, compared to wins over Illinois, Ole Miss, and Western Michigan.

yeah kansas's nonconference was pretty bad. reminds me of florida last year...
florida needed an easy non-conferenc schedule to make up for their sec schedule.
oh you mean the conference with 5 teams over .500 in conference and 7 teams under .500? Or the conference where a 9-4 team gets to play in the conference title game?
you said last year, the SEC was heead and shoulders above everyone else last year. And is still the best this year, Big 12 is 3rd behind the Pac 10.
i never said anything abotu the big 12. im just saying people in the sec think that if they win 6 games theyre better than a team from another conference that wins 11.
well, lets put KU, Mizzou, or Texas in the SEC and we'll see how they fare...
I guarantee you they would all lose to LSU, Georgia, Florida and Tennessee
haha ok. dont you have a klan meeting to go to later ming?
