I have seen a ton of ND State fans in the Metroplex area over the past two holiday seasons for their national championship games. Nice to see GameDay going somewhere besides just the AQ conference games.

Gameday went to Houston a couple of years ago for two non-AQ schools. Can't remember who Houston was playing though.....

So Miss for the CUSA Championship wasn't it and they lost to ruin a perfect season and their potential as a BCS buster. Poor Cougar High.

Surely you are being facetious.

It was Houston against SMU in Houston when they were undefeated two years ago. I was there...Quite an experience!

Jealousy is an ugly thing.

College GameDay heading to SMU-Houston

Your turn, Houston.

The Cougars are now in line for a BCS berth after Boise State lost to TCU on Saturday. Houston is No. 11 in the latest BCS standings, released Sunday night, putting it in position to earn the first BCS bid in school and Conference USA history. Though Boise State remains ahead of Houston at No. 10, the automatic berth given to a non-AQ that finishes in the top 12 only goes to a conference champion.

Should Houston win out, the Cougars would be almost certain of getting that berth. Boise State could win out, but it is no longer the favorite to win the Mountain West. That is now TCU, which jumped into the BCS standings at No. 19 off its big victory in Boise. Southern Miss, on a collision course to play Houston in the Conference USA title game, is ranked No. 20.

The final stretch of the season will not be a cakewalk for Houston (10-0, 6-0). The Cougars play SMU (6-4, 4-2) on Saturday with College GameDay headed to town, and then travel to play at Tulsa (7-3, 6-0) on Friday, Nov. 25, to close out the regular season. Then there is the conference championship game to win as well. But given the way Case Keenum and the offense are playing right now, the Cougars should be favored to win their final stretch of games.

Boise State is still in position to get an at-large berth in the BCS, but the likelihood of that happening is slim simply because the games would most likely choose a team from one of the automatic qualifying conferences. No one-loss non-AQ has ever made it into a BCS game.
