lol Crap-10
Seeing as how the pac-10 is either a total steaming pile of conference when USC blows, or a one-team conference when it isnt, and the MWC beats them in every possible game every year.
and there were some ass wizards who said Cal was the best team in the nation back in weeks 1-3
lol Crap-10
still doesnt prove anything
if the west coast athletic conference were 2-0 tlong would be beavering the same ol that nobody has listened to for years
He probably cancelled the order for his Pac-10 Starter's Jacket official apparel
lol pac-10
Before jumping to conclusions about the conference why don't we wait and see how it plays out? What will you say if UA beats Nebraska pretty good, a team UT barely/luckily could get by. Oregon still can stomp tOSU. Stanford without luck will prob lose to OU. Just saying if pac goes 0-6 in bowls then you could say that, but lets see how it plays out.
Exactly. Course, I could use the capn mike argument...last year when the Pac 10 went undefeated in bowls, mike said we were the favorites...well not so far, at least by rankings.
We'll see what happens with ucla, uo, stanford and usc. But I won't lie...I've been disappointed thus far...Oregon state, in particular, played like dog .
That Arizona game depends on whether Suh phones it in so he won't risk injury.
This really says more about how good the MWC is rather than how bad the PAC-10 is. The MWC has 3 teams that can play with anyont in TCU, BYU and Utah. Then it has a few average teams like Air Force and Wyoming. The only team in the PAC-10 that turns out teams consistently better then the MWC is USC.
However, TCU, BYU and Utah are better this year than at least half of the teams in the Big 12, SEC, Big East and I would say all the teams in the Big-10.
MWC has consistently beat the big boys and deserves a shot at the national le.
I can't wait till I see CBF pimp OU when they beat Stanford.
BTW, when I picked Stanford, I didn't realize luck was out...that's huge. I wonder if they could win without him?
IMO, D-1 football should have ten 12-team divisions. What this means is, some conferences would have to re-align and independents would have to join conferences. Now, I will not post the realignment as I prefer it, but instead how I feel it should be, without totally realigning the conferences. Basically, I will merely be rearranging some of the lesser conferences.

Each team plays 11 Conference games. The top 2 teams in each conference play in the Conference Championship. The winner goes to the playoffs. The 4 lowest ranked Conference Champions play in the Wild Card round, with the winners joining the other 6 Conference Champs and setting up the elite 8.
1 vs 8
4 vs 5
2 vs 7
3 vs 6
9 playoff games in all....Pasadena (Rose Bowl), Glendale (Fiesta Bowl), Dallas (Cotton Bowl/Cowboys Stadium), New Orleans (Sugar Bowl), Miami (Orange Bowl), Atlanta (Georgia Dome, San Antonio (Alamo Bowl), Orlando (Capitol 1 Bowl), Los Angeles (Coliseum)
no way.
Check the record, CBF never pimps OU in any possibly possible way. I picked Stanford to beat them, in fact, I hope Stanford crushes the out of OU. I have never wanted them to win a single game or 'pimped the conference' when they win EVER.
Nothing that benefits OU will ever benefit UT. I hope Toby leaves a huge gaping wound in their ass by running them into the mud all day.
I was one of the two people on this board hoping OU would lose an extra conference game last year, even if it meant Tech would win the conference outright via the UT tiebreaker. I was one of the few people who was wanting Tebow to dominate them in the le game.
Check the record .
OU sucks ASS.

Pac 10 > Big 12
why not just add a 7th AQ conference, a 12 team Hybrid of the WAC and MWC?
Non-issue.
lol MWC is droppin pac10 teams like nino brown on thanksgiving
i love how nobody is denying this. further, the Pac-10 was as good as anyone this year...oregon state just flopped for some reason. probably cause they were disappointed about their game against oregon, just like last year. the utah game doesn't surprise me at all, utah is good and Cal has been inconsistent.
its fun to poke at, but anyone who really thinks the MWC is better, just isn't watching enough football. though, the MWC is very good this year. another factor, imo, is the MWC is supremely motivated going into these match ups with BCS conferences (namely Pac-10)...although, its inexcusable from the other side. ridiculous not to be ready and match intensity...
The only football I watch is games where MWC crushes pac10 teams. And that's like every time they play each other.
The MWC owns the pac10 in every conceivable way. Victory over a vaunted top SEC team in a BCS bowl, complete domination in matchups for years now, Cal was being pimped as the best team in the nation to start the season and they get dropped by a mediocre MWC team, Oregon State got s acked and people considered them by far the best pac10 team at one point.
Sad conference, brah, pac10 loses all prestige it garnered last year.
1) there was like 1 dude calling Cal the best team this year
2) nobody thought oregon state was the best team in the Pac-10 this year, other than oregon state fan
...why do you make up? anyway, i honestly think the pac-10 isn't getting up for the games against the MWC. i don't know why, either.
Oregon state only lost so many games BECAUSE they're so good
The Beavs are DAMN good! I just got back from Vegas and I understand why they didn't show up in the Bowl game.
Have no heart, no scrot
Captain comPete saves the Pac-10 against an awesome power from the ACC.
I like your number of conferences/playoff breakdown. But your can't simply have the conferences you constructed as it still doesn't address compe ive advantages for some of the one/two-school conferences. Specifically, 8, 9 and 10 look very weak.
If a true system is to me done, several conferences need to be reconfigured.
Example...
1 (12) Pacific 12 Conference
- North -
California
Oregon
Oregon St
Stanford
Washington
Washington St
- South -
Fresno St
Hawaii
San Diego St
San Jose St
USC
UCLA
2 (12) - Western Athletic Conference
- North -
Boise St
Idaho
Utah
Utah St
BYU
Wyoming
- South -
Air Force
Arizona
Arizona St
Colorado St
Nevada
UNLV
These just make more sense and break down into divisions and conferences better.
But even beyond this, major conference of #3 and #6 need to be reconfigured with #9 and #10 while major conferences of #5 and #7 need to be combined with #8.
6 (12) - Southwestern Conference
- West -
New Mexico
New Mexico St
Texas
Texas A&M
Texas El Paso
Texas Tech
- East -
Baylor
Houston
North Texas
Rice
Southern Methodist
Texas Christian
9 (12) - Middle-American Conference
- North -
Colorado
Iowa St
Kansas
Kansas St
Missouri
Nebraska
- South -
Louisiana Tech
Memphis
Oklahoma
Oklahoma St
Tulsa
Tulane
Something like this is way too complicated to ever happen, so I'm not sure why I spent so much time reconfiguring even these four conferences. However, since I'm this far... In my stipulations, ever team plays every team in it's own division (5 games), and then three from their Conferences other division on a every-other-year rotational schedule (3 games). This makes 8 of 12 games, leaving 4 games for out of conferences scheduling for things like older conference rivalry games that no longer exist due to reconfiguration (like Texas/Oklahoma). Scheduling non-conference games would operate 2 full seasons in advance so a team isn't drastically better/worse when played than when scheduled and each team would be required to schedule 1 non-conference opponent with a better than 8-win record, two others within the 5-7 win range (basically .500) and one non-conference cupcake.
Winners of the Conference divisions play each other in a le game with the winner advancing to the guaranteed BCS Playoff birth, with the teams being subjectively ranked 1-10, equal parts average based off of BCS computer, AP vote and coaches vote.
I like your playoff breakdown, so I'd go with that from here on out.
