Can you imagine if McCoy had waited one more second to throw that ball?

He'd be the biggest goat of all time. He'd make Leon Lett look like a knock-knock joke.

Why it wasnt a QB draw or HB dive to set the ball up in the middle of the field baffles me.
It didn't look like anybody called any play whatsoever. When they cut away from Colt and crew just standing around to shiow the kicker taking his final warmup, there was like 15 seconds. The next thing you know they were lined up but just standing there. I don't think the team on the field and the coaches on the sideline were on the same page.

LOL
it would've taken over reggie ball's 4th down clock killing throw as the biggest qb bonehead play of all time.

Now, just to add one more thing, if there ws a playoff beyond just a "plus-one", this day would not have been so thrilling.

Texas Christian, Boise State, Florida, Alabama, Texas, Oregon, and Ohio State wouldn't have given a fuck about anything that happened today; they'd all be going to the playoffs. Wheee!!! The only teams concerned would have been Cincinnati, Iowa, and (sorta) Georgia Tech.

And that would have made for shitty TV.

Although, I am still pro "plus-one".

I'd assume the BCS would be ...

Alabama
Texas
Texas Christian
Cincinnati
Boise can go fuck itself with its schedule.

Alabama v. Cincinnati
Texas v Texas Christian

Fun stuff. Good enough to get rid of the "M" part of the MNC and shut up playoff proponents who want 8-16 teams involved.

If you're going to include TCU with their schedule, you have to include Boise.

I am not going to say I am thrilled with their's but

1) It is about 15% better based on a series of computer polls.
2) They are ranked ahead of them.

Yeah, they are ranked ahead because they played very overrated BYU and Utah teams. I'm not saying Boise is better, but they should be in a playoff conversation.

DUDE!!

TCU's schedule is MORE comparable to Texas's schedule than Boise's is to TCU.

TCU's schedule was slightly better than TExas's most of the season, then Texas's was slight better at the end of the season, and will probably get a little more separation after beating Nebraska.

Boise's schedule is laughable, a 1 game schedule is all it is.

Let's not get crazy here.

Here's my thing with the Heisman...you can't absolutely disappear in games during the season, you have to be great week in and week out. Ingram, where were you versus Arkansas and Auburn? And the lack of TDs will also hurt him. Today he was huge though and it certainly helped him big time. Same situation with Spiller. Virginia, South Carolina...nothing. Today - beast mode

Gerhart has been there week in and week out. And if Luck doesn't go 22-60 in losses to Oregon State and Cal, you're talking about a player on the PAC 10 champions.

You can't include Boise unless you are prepared to include Iowa, Ohio State, and Oregon, too. And I am not. Four teams max.

I got zero problems with it going to Gerhart. :D

Other than an overrated BYU and Utah, who did TCU play?

3-9 Virginia? lol

8-5 Clemson who represented one of the worst BCS conferences in its title game?

Again, I'm not saying Boise belongs in a title game (they don't and neither does TCU), nor am I saying Boise is better. But if there was a playoff, Boise should be in it.

If we keep an undefeated team out of a playoff, you just ruined a system that was supposed to solve everything. Iowa didn't win their conference so they're out.

Alabama - BYE

Texas vs Boise

Cincy vs TCU

OSU vs Oregon

Alabama vs Cincy/TCU

Texas/Boise vs OSU/Oregon
