Brian Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Wow, I'm a Michigan fan and think Texas and Cali would be a better game than Michigan facing either school. Wolverines will get rolled. #4 in the country and no BCS bid. That is unreal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redandwhite Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Texas has been screwed the past few seasons. Come back to me when Texas beats Oklahoma, until then they should be no where near a BCS birth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redandwhite Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 California was hosed, courtesty of Texas. I'm not taking anything away from Texas, there an excellent football team, but they don't deserve to be in the BCS over Cal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand how you can say cal is better then texas, I just don't agree with the statement that texas shouldn't be in the bcs until they beat oklahoma.

Well it's been what five years of Oklahoma domination, where as Cal put up a fight against USC this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gene Honda Civic Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Had Michigan came to Evanston this year, I think the outcome might have been a little different. Yeah it was another one of those 20+ home field advantages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Texas has put up a fight against OU several times also. Its really a toss up between Texas and OU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redandwhite Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Yeah it was another one of those 20+ home field advantages Yes, similar to the game in which Michigan was spanked by Ohio State. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Had Michigan came to Evanston this year, I think the outcome might have been a little different. As a Northwestern fan, the Wildcats killed themselves with their s***ty play early on in the season. Sure, Ohio State and Purdue were very nice wins, but when you lose to teams you should beat (beginning of the season, non conference games), you don't deserve a bowl...

I'm not saying that Northwestern deserves a bowl bid, but had they beaten Michigan, a task I think is pretty reasonable at home in Evanston, they would be heading to a bowl game.

Buehrle>Wood Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I feel bad for Utah. They actually get into a BCS bowl and they still won't face real competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 The Fiesta Bowl is the weak sister among the BCS bowls. And yes, Texas did get hosed last year, but Kansas State rightfully beat Oklahoma to go to a bowl. It was just tough luck for Texas. I'm stratching my head about Cal not getting a BCS bowl though.

YASNY Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Didn't the Rose Bowl get to choose between Cal, Utah and Texas? That's the way I understood it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 California might have one of the nation's most complete offensive teams, but it beat a whole bunch of no one. As predicted, everyone conveniently dismissed the 28-27 should’ve-been loss to an Oregon team that’ll sit home for the bowl season. Most were too busy watching the SEC and Big XII title games to see Cal struggle until late to put away a mediocre Southern Miss team. What’s Cal’s claim to fame? Losing to USC in gallant fashion. That’s fine, but that was still a loss - collegefootballnews.com I agree I think Cal is overrated and Texas is underrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Hudler Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I'm not so sure Texas is underrated. I think they are too one-dimensional offensively. I'll go on record now that Michigan will beat them. Hey, Brian, I do have a question about Michigan. What happened to Matt Gutierrez? All I heard was he was supposed to start the opener and suffered a shoulder injury the week before. Was it a long term injury? Did he ever get healthy? Chad Henne did a good job, especially for a true freshman, but surely Gutierrez didn't lose his job without missing a big part of the season? Gutierriez was pretty highly regarded as well, was he not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
