Too Good For The WAC

Postby Stallion » Wed Dec 03, 2003 9:33 am

Isn't it ironic that the school that was too good for the WAC is playing for the WAC Championship in its best season in 50 years.

Yes it is, and add to that the fact that Boise will pound TCU into the dust and out of the top 25.

Sagarin Ratings:

Boise State- 15

TCU- 47
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

wait just a minute - I'm not saying you are wrong - but remember it is a TCU home game - and unlike our game they will be scared to death at looking stupid (never occured to them they could lose to us until the 4th qtr). I think it will be a hell of a game.

I'm sure the Mountain West is looking closely as well, considering TCU-Boise are very close in winning percentage over the past 4 years, average home attendance and both are attached to a $750K Bowl.

Not saying the winner gets into MWC, but top of mind awareness tends to dominate within these athletic departments.

don't be shocked if the MWC doesn't invite both TCU and Boise. They both bring bowl games and the MWC might be sweating their future in the Liberty Bowl.

Boise St by 15 at TCU's home field. HaHaHa-not much respect for the Froggies.

Those people in Vegas tend to know what they are talking about. I'm seriously considering going online and buying some tickets from Boise St to attend the game.

Please do go to the game! It's a chance to cheer on a conference mate, and against your hated rival. Boise State, because of the distance, and the date, will have a hard time selling many tickets. We really could use all the help we can get! You might even be able to get free tickets from Boise State fans who would like to go but can't. (I would offer, but I'm a poor student and you can't get blood from a rock) Any way, any help would be very appreciated :cool:

You know I was thinking that the MWC might take only the winner. My gut feeling is that the gang of 5 wants to maintain control and the only way to do that is to keep it below 10. Boise fits better geographically, but TCU brings in a major television market locale. If it goes above 9 then there will be divisional play and you can bet your bippy that the gang of five will be in one division and the rest will be in the other. That means TCU fans that you'll be in a division with Boise, UNLV, UNM and SDS with four other conference games against gang of 5. Which means BYU at home every four years and AFA at home every four years. That means a steady diet of UNLV, Boise, UNM, SDS, Wyo., Utah, CSU. All household names in the metroplex. On the other hand you get lots of frequent flyer miles.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna
