BSU dropped from 2 to 4 and from 3 to 4 in the coaches' poll. Awesome.

They are lucky to be in the top 10 in my opinion

TCU would crush Auburn.

Auburn will lose to Bama, since both are equally equal. Chattanooga will hurt them in many ways.

What I don't like about this is that when Auburn beat a top 10 LSU a few weeks ago, it shot them up to #1. When TCU destroys a top 5 team, they pass one team.



I understand the perception of beating a name like LSU vs beating Utah, so why give Utah such a high ranking if you really aren't going to recognize that ranking for the team that beats them?



I mean, if Utah had been ranked #25 and TCU beaten them by the same score, the change in the rankings would've been the same for TCU

1st time this year I agree with the polls. If oregon and auburn win out, they deserve a shot at the nc. If either lose a game, then TCU better be the team.



Boise is still on the outside looking in... schedule schedule schedule

If it weren't for the fact that Boise is in their second year of being undefeated and beat both Oregon and TCU last year. I don't deny that both Oregon and Auburn deserve a shot at the title but no more than Bosie State and TCU. There is no justice in the BC$.

This will be BSU's third straight undefeated regular season, if they win at Nevada. Last year they beat 2 teams that played in BCS bowls. I am not sure that BSU and TCU haven't been the two best teams in the country the last two years. I think both of them beat Texas last year, and both of them would have a great opportunity to have beaten Alabama or Florida.



I wouldn't pick against either of them against Auburn. Auburn's defense is not very good. Oregon is really good offensively, and they have a better defense than they are given credit for. I think that TCU has a great defense, and that BSU's defense is underrated. I would, however, give TCU a better chance at stopping Oregon than BSU.

Last year, Boise State beat Oregon and TCU. Oregon also lost their BCS bowl game against Ohio State.

Auburn wasn't great last year, and has a poor offense this year. They are giving up 24 points per game, including to teams like Arkansas State and Chatanooga, and score 15 less points per game than Oregon.

TCU has the #1 defense in the nation.



I'd rank them:

1. BSU

2. TCU

3. Oregon

4. Auburn



I won't mind seeing a non-BCS team shut-out of the Title game, as it increases pressure for the future (and BYU) and raises hate for the system.

I work in Oregon and I get to deal with insufferable duck fans on a daily basis. I want them to lose badly. However, they are dang good. I think the only team that could beat Oregon is TCU - put the no. 1 defense against the no. 1 offense in the title game and we will see - defense wins championships.
