Seriously, Connecticut making it to a BCS bowl game showcases everything that is wrong with the system. I am sorry but a team with 4 losses should NEVER get a BCS bowl invitation when you have clearly superior teams being left out.

Connecticut would be a deserving underdog to everyone in the top 25 & would be lucky to stay within 21 of any one in the top 15. I am not just saying this because Boise won't make it to the BCS either. There will be some notable teams left out, take Michigan State for example who won't get a bid yet a 4 loss team from hands down the worst AQ conference gets one.

Even if you hate the idea of a playoff system, this farce alone should be reason enough for anyone to want this sham to end.

No disrespect to Connecticut fans & their team which played by the rules & earned the birth technically, but it is still not right.

UCONN has nothing to lose, go ahead, bet OK -35, bet you lose.

The only reason why Connecticut might hang around is Big Game Stoops is notorious for stinking up the joint in these BCS games.

You are biased so I'll just let you live in your fantasy world where this is fair to the sport.


What?
Until they change the system, the Big East goes to the BCS, UCONN closed their season like a freight and have nothing to apologize for, but like I said, until they change the system, deal with it.

UCONN, otherwise known as the 4th best team in the WAC. I thought the Huskies would be a great team in the preseason but I've watched them numerous times and they just have so many problems.

Fixed it for ya.

Boise and Nevada would beat up on UCONN IMO. Hawaii would probably depend on who was the home team. It is tough to travel to the island.

Are you a Husky fan Bill? What the hell happened to them this year? Any theory why a team so good last year with almost everyone back couldn't find a way to become anything better than above average? I don't get it...

Teggart hits bombs from 50 and 52 in the clutch while Brotzman gags on two bunnies, deal with it BSU fans, if Brotz hits one of those two chippies, you wouldn't be whining tonight.

Huskies couldn't solve Robinson in the opener had internal problems early, righted the ship and closed the season like a freight train.
Tonight's game was played close to the vest, but the previous three wins were impressive.

No one is whining. Just stating the obvious.

No one is whining. I am just calling it like I & many other people see it. The system is a farce when a joke of a team like Connecticut makes the BCS. They have advanced in their short history but are clearly the most undeserving BCS team in history.

Todman is a complete stud and can hang with the best of em. if this team had an even AVERAGE QB they would be easily be a top 13-15 team. I guarentee you Todman will impress on bowl day.

Just one of many games I will pass on. Just because they call it a BCS game doesn't mean its watchable or will it mean anything ! Like I have always said, December and January Postseason college football is very overrated.
