09, you don't (as you mentioned).
2008, you don't.
2006, it's questionable. Probably would be a very good game, could go either way.
2005, you don't.
2004, you do.
2003, you do.
2002, you don't.
That's the past 8 years. We're relatively even 1 year, we're better 4 years, you're better 3.

Two national championships this decade as opposed to one of yours. We beat you pretty resoundly in the second one. We also play in a better conference. I'll go back to my original reasoning - how are you against the SEC lately?
And how are YOU against the SEC lately?
8-8 in the past two years, I promise you OSU would have done way better than that with your schedule.

This might be questionable, edge tOSU, but close.

Bama
UF
Texas
OSU (maybe)
That's about all I can see......TCU, BSU, Cincy, etc. are fly-by-night and until they play legit schedules, will remain so.

Depends on how we would have played. If we played like we did against UF, you would destroy us, but that was just a pathetic display all across the board, maybe the worst I've ever seen an Ohio State team play. If we played up to what we could, it'd be a good game.

9 losses in two years and you're claiming only 4 (maybe) programs should be ranked above LSU right now? You, my friend, define the term homer.

TCU's schedule was nowhere near what Boise and Cinci's schedules were. Their schedule was statistically about as strong as Texas', and included wins over 6 bowl teams (who also went on to win their bowl games). They also played 4 teams that spent significant time in the top 15 and two teams that were top 7 or higher at one point this season. It's also their second season in a row finishing top 7 or higher. There's a reason that BCS schools are buying out of their games scheduled with TCU even several years in the future (including LSU looking into doing it for their future home and home starting 3 seasons), and it's not because it's a "fly-by-night" program.

TCU has had 1 great season and they didn't even win a BCS bowl (against a non-BCS opponent)
they're more of a non-BCS tease program than a fly by night
they have had a lot of hype, but have never lived up to it until last year...and then they failed again

TCU is a legit program, especially if they keep Patterson. Probably not Top 10, but up there. This whole "better program" thing is a hard topic to argue. I guess one good guage would be to look at recruiting rankings. In the end, the recruiting stars don't mean a whole lot, but it is a good way to gauge what programs the high school stars consider to be the best (I realize other factors such as location, etc are involved).

TCU couldn't hold water to Florida or Bama stop with those shitty arse state. When you play a shite schedule and you are a pretty good team of course you can go undefeated.
Oh and how was those close wins against those sorry arse teams.

Arguing with you is like having a gun fight with an unarmed man. Try looking up some statistics, or maybe reading about college football every now and then somewhere else than here (like, maybe a newspaper)

3 losses in 2 seasons all to teams with an argument for the national championship after the season or that played for it in the BCSCG. Yeah, TCU is complete crap.
Like I've said before, you are the epitomy of the idiotic LSU/SEC homer. I think we should start calling "rantards" "SFPs".
Posted on 1/17/10 at 6:59 pm to TIGERSandFROGS
BSU had no argument for the title this year
i have no clue who beat them last year, but they don't have an argument. UF was the champ, without argument
they haven't even won a BCS game
how many conference titles do they have?
i hope you recognize the irony of this statement
i popularized the term. you have no idea how to use it
let me know when TCU does something and then pump up their program

Still only 3 spots behind LSU for schedule difficulty.
Toughest Schedule for FBS Teams, LSU 23, TCU 26, Tennesee 37
Seriously, you really don't know shite about football.

Hey when you play florida and bama almost year in and year out then you come talk to me.
IMO the SECW will be the preliminary for the BCSNCG. Everybody got a chance next year.
Go back to your BYU's and Utah's

Last year TCU lost to OU and Utah. Alabama is the clear champ, but we don't know for sure if Boise could have hung with them, and they have an unblemished schedule with wins over two BCS teams. I didn't say they were the national champs with Alabama, but you can certainly craft an argument that they deserved a shot at it.
Yes, I spelled epitome with a "y". Sue me, I've been drinking and watching football all day. What's your excuse for being a dumbass?
I'll wait for TCU to accomplish something, like finishing in the top 7 two years in a row and having 3 All-Americans. Oh wait...

i bet that SOS rating is based mostly (if not all) on W-L, so a non-BCS win = a BCS win
