On a side note, I think the Ohio State QB Beckman got a raw deal. What exactly had he done wrong that deserved to be benched? Obviously Pryor is the future, but the plug seemed to be pulled awfully quick. Beckman might actually be an alright NFL QB. Seems like a very smart guy and that seems to be the #1 prerequisite to playing quarterback in the NFL these days. Besides, that guy that got benched for his senior year at Michigan after a very good junior year has been doing pretty well in this league...

God..I was just kidding. I have no idea,really, because I don't watch other games.



If you saw Todd..you would know why. Real nice guy....but not a real good qb.

Well... in his favor, he can't be any worse on the NFL level than Troy Smith.


Your honest opinion... do the Buckeyes deserve a BCS game?

I don't know what Smith looks like in the pros. He was 3 times Todd in college,though.Todd's problems are he goes spastic under pressure and will either "I gotta get ridda this thing!!' throw a pick or fumble.

Great arm...can make perfect throws one time and then look color blind or like a farmers plow the next.





I really don't care. You could say Boise and Utah are more deserving since,I think, both are undefeated.

But honest---I have no interest one way or the other.

perhaps I've been too critical of him... he's got a QB rating of 135 this year!



Utah has clinched a spot. I guess it comes down to Boise vs Ohio State vs Texas Tech (altho i think theres a rule that only 2 per conference can get a spot, which is kind of unfair since despite TT's performance on saturday I still think they deserve another shot at a bigtime game)

Ya I don't know how that stuff works except it goes where the most money is.....all hokey to me...the whole bcs mess.

But I will say that a team who gives up 65 to anybody doesn't deserve a whole lot.
