UNLV also pulled off a big upset today, knocking off Wisconsin. Cincinatti and Lousiville both lead BCS teams right now, as well (perhaps stating their case for Big East inclusion), with a chance to knock off Syracuse and West Virginia.
Some will tell you that a glass is half empty, and others that the same glass is half full. But all CPC really wants to know is...... does the drink taste good?

after all the events of this past spring & summer...i believe a 'statement' by the non-bcs members are being made with quite a few of these upsets so far this season regarding inclusion in the bcs-bs cartel system.
BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

As the season goes on though, non-BCS teams won't get the ratings because it is riged toward BCS leagues. For example, when FSU beat 3 BCS schools a couple of years ago starting out, everyone was talking about how they would walk through the WAC. BUT when they lost 2 WAC games, they were no longer considered a good team. More BS from the BCS.

Thanks guys. When we committed our 5th turnover of the game I didn't think LA Tech had a chance.

Michigan St. finally turned one over to us when they fumbled an onsides kick, which we stuck into their endzone at the end.
Final: LA Tech 20 - Michigan St. 19

SMU almost pulled it out in Waco. That would have been great for the WAC. Keep pluggin' away folks!
