    wyo vs. fresno should be a good game. i would like some feed back on the fiesta bowl. the bcs has done some strange things in the past but this takes the cake. boise vs. tcu. what a slap in the face. they had 2 teams that scared the crap out of every one. after the utah alabama beat down they decide to dump both together. it should have been tcu vs. florida and boise vs. cinnci. or the other way around. but no. how cynical can the get?

      I was disappointed to see the Fiesta Bowl match-up, but not surprised when I saw Cincinnati jump past TCU in the BCS standings. I like Cincinnati but not enough to jump it past TCU. At least I didn’t in my poll.

      Even though no one can prove it, I really don’t think the BCS higher-ups want to see either TCU or Boise beat one of their big boys. That is still a hurdle that needs to be cleared in the BCS mess.

      I like the TCU-Boise State game. As you recall last year that game in the Poinsettia Bowl was one of the better bowl games in 2008. I like TCU to win that one.

      The BCS championship game should be good, whether you agree with the matchup or not. The Orange Bowl does nothing for me with Iowa and Georgia Tech. Iowa as an at-large BCS team? That was mostly due to the way Iowa fans travel. … yet again another serious flaw in the system.

      The way I see it, if TCU wins and Florida wins TCU could finish No. 2 like Utah last year. … We will see.

      Thanks for the comment. Enjoy the bowl games.
