I actually said that to my dad right after I saw UGA was playing them. Hawaii deserves to be in a bowl for being undefeated, but they haven't played anyone. So it's going to be a masscre.Originally Posted by {X}Echo419
Lol, how many top 5 teams lost to unranked teams this year that werent much either. Im going for GA of course, but im saying it might not be a blow out. Hawaii has alot to play for, they arent just going in there as a half a.. team. As you can tell they pretty much beat everybody by a good margin.Originally Posted by Reaper

Hawaii beat them by a good margin, but they have played only two teams with a winning season (Boise State 10-2 and Fresno State 8-4), and one team that is .500 (Nevada 6-6). A couple of the teams were 11-1! Not only has Hawaii played nobodies, they have played mostly bad nobodies. Not to mention, those crappy ass teams put a decent amount of points on Hawaii.

I may be biased since I go to UGA, but I really feel that we got shafted. There are other instances where schools have gone to the championship without winning their conference. Also, I know that TN beat us, but we beat KY(who beat LSU). It does not automatically make LSU better than GA. My problem is this: we earned our 4th place last week but now voters and coaches basically changed the BCS to push us out.
They beat those teams which are some good schools, and then played #19 Boise State and beat them just as bad. So they they might have demolished the scores w/ the other teams, but did just as good against a top 25 team. Ga should have no problem winning, but i know football and underdogs have won plenty of times. If Ga goes out there w/ a half a.. strategy they could lose.Originally Posted by WHAT_LAG

M. tenn state, Tulane, Louisiana Tech should all be highlighted in Lsu's schedule if that is the case. The schedules are basically even. No games against other SEC teams should be counted for as easy games. LSU is in it b/c they won the SEC, not b/c their schedule was more difficult.
Btw, Troy was a great team. I was at that game and I was very impressed.

There is no valid argument that UGA should have gotten in over LSU, I'm sorry. LSU and UGA are in the same conference. They boast the same regular season record. The difference is that LSU won the conference. UGA did not.
If you want to say UGA got shafted, argue how overrated Ohio State is. Because in no way, shape, or form should UGA have gone over LSU.
Yes it sucks for UGA. But they lost to Tennessee and the chips fell how they did after that. They're a young team, they'll have a couple more shots.
PS, I'm thinking that Oklahoma vs. WVU is going to be the best BCS game. But also, I wouldn't be so sure about a blow out over Hawaii. Granted I think UGA will win, but Colt Brennan is a really good QB, regardless of what division he is in.
This guy makes a lot of good points:

UGA: Everybody is laughing at us this year.
My main argument isn't against LSU being there. I just dont think Ohio State should be. It's not right that UGA gets knocked off, and Ohio State moves up. So what if they've only lost one game... Hawaii hasn't lost any but you don't see anyone going crazy about them not being in it. I know Big Ten is a stronger conference, but the same argument could be made by the other 10-2 SEC teams. Oklahoma or UGA or hell even VT deserve to be there more than OSU... but like I said earlier, when UGA gets knocked out of it, I will always go for the SEC team. The bucks are gonna get embarassed 2 years in a row.

I would understand and feel ya'lls pain if you won the division not even the conference, just the division, but ya'll didn't even do that.

maybe I should have seperated it for you. I wasn't saying LSU played Troy. I meant UGA did. the point was Troy is no pushover.Originally Posted by WHAT_LAG
I'm gonna guess you meant don't be a hater. Play when it counts? Beat, UF, Auburn, ALA, Kentucky(didn't they beat LSU?), and GT...well GT's kinda of our ***** now a days.
another point so on one gets confused:
apparently strength dosen't matter for ****. ex: Kansas gets a BCS over Mizz. why? 1 loss compared to 2. that's all the BCS is, who lost the least. then, if it's more than a 2 teams with the same record it becomes a dog show.
what are you talkin about, half of you people know nothing about sports. One I am a die hard LSU fan. I know the weak parts of our schedule and those are it.Originally Posted by Sport20

Let me set you straight now.Originally Posted by {X}Echo419
1. The only teams that beat us was Kentucky and Arkansas, um and both are SEC teams which is the best conference in college football. UGA also lost to two SEC teams, but we palyed in the championship game and we won our divison. UGA won niether of the two.
2. Also in the BCS the beginning of the season counts just as much as the end.
3. The stronger your schedule, and ther more you put a beating on other teams counts when the computer adds up.
4. it clearly states in the rules, that three teams from one conference cant all be in the BCS. Also if Mizu would have not gotten beat two times by the same team, they would be in. Mizu has a stronger schedule than Kansas but , Oklahoma beat them twice.
5. Some of you f u c k e r s only watch college football to watch it. I am a complete fan of football, read up on the game and you will know a lot more. The old system was better to me, back when Alabama, Nebraska, Flordia and Flordia State were the best. Because all you had to do is play good defense and run up the score. Scoring more points meant better results in the end.
6. If there was a play-off in college football, you would be crying even more than now, because there would be no good play-off system.

UGA tied for SEC East Champions, so we did win our division. UT went to the SEC championship because they beat us.
UGA: Everybody is laughing at us this year.
That means y'all lost the tiebreaker resulting in not winning your division. so you DIDN'T win the division. don't be that typical georgia fan, trying to find any excuse to justify their argument.Originally Posted by nreggie454

there is no argument....y'all play the same schedule strength. it just happens that when UGA lost they lost pretty big esp. to UT who had a 28-0 lead at the half of that game. now when LSU lost they lost in fashion, putting up a fight til the end, both games going to triple OT. now theres the argument do what you want with it.Originally Posted by Sport20
Back to what_lag the lsu fan. y'all better not let that weakass ohio st. team beat y'all because one it will prove alot of arguments that uga fans have been TRYING to make and two y'all will become the epic lawls of the sec for losing to that bush league team of ohio st.

oh yea if ya'll don't win against ohio st. it will be the last time y'all even come close to going back to the bcs championship game because ryan perilloux cannot get the job done as a full time starter you saw that in the UT game, when he scrambles out of the pockets ands takes off to run he will get hit hard, and his body cannot take those shots, everytime he was hit in the UT game he started limping or grimacing noticeably.
