I might have to start making this blog my sports blog because that's all I seem to talk about it anymore. Let's face it, sports are my life, and I can't wait to get paid to do this kind of stuff.
My favorite sport to watch and follow is college football. I don't like it because it supposedly has more emotion than professional football. I love it most because there are new teams every year and one team could be great one year and then suck the next year. Here is my top 10 and some of my observations compared to the BCS's top 10
BCS top 10:
1. Florida
2. Alabama
3. Texas
4. TCU
5. Cincinnati
6. Boise State
7. Georgia Tech
8. LSU
9. Pittsburgh
10. Ohio State
My top 10 and observations
1. Texas: I put them #1 because to me they have never been in danger of an upset, and also performed great against quality opponents
2. Florida
3. Alabama
4. TCU: Okay Horned Forgs I put you ahead of my Boise State, but now there are so many TCU fans that think they are something special. Thinking they are the best team in the nation, and I'm not saying they can't beat a Florida, Alabama or Texas, but they need to get off their high horse. I truly believe and I said this even before last nights game that Utah is overrated. Utah had not beaten a quality opponent and already had some close calls. BYU is also overrated so TCU really only had one great win against Clemson in my opinion. Let's not forget they needed overtime to defeat Air Force. Every team has their weaknesses.
5. Boise State: I have them ranked ahead of Cincinnati, because they have been ahead of them most of the season but somehow was passed after Cincinnati barely avoided an upset to UConn. I'm not going to praise BSU cause they have their weaknesses like any other team, and I thought I would let you know what I think are some of their weaknesses.
1. Their inability to put opponents away in road games has worried me a little bit. They allowed Fresno State and Tulsa to come back into games that should have been not as close.
2. One way they let teams back into games is that "they allow a big play on defense" there have been many times that Boise State has allowed a big play while they were on defense. 3 60+ TD's against Fresno and 2 long passing plays that led to two touchdowns for Tulsa made games close.
3. Kyle Brotzman. I don't care how accurate you are... hit the freaking field goal from the left hash. This guy has a curse and I have not seen him make a field goal from the left hash yet, and sooner or later its going to cost Boise State a game like it did to TCU last year.
6. Cincinnati
7. Pittsburgh: I don't know why people don't have this team ranked higher. They've only lost one game and that was to NC State at the start of the season. Since then they have been dominate and will give Cincinnati a run for the Big East Title.
8. Georgia Tech: Clinched the ACC Coastal this week
9. LSU: Clearly the best two loss team in the nation. There only losses are to the #1 and #2 ranked teams in the nation
10. Ohio State
My dream college football system would be a 16 team playoff system with the conference winner getting an automatic bid and then taking 5 at-large bids. Re-rank each team and then have them play. I would explain when and where they would play if someone asked me, but if the college season ended today and we went by my system this is who I would have play in the opening round.
#1 Florida (SEC) vs. #16 Troy (Sun Belt)
#2 Alabama (At Large) vs. #15 Central Michigan (MAC)
#3 Texas (Big 12) vs. #14 Houston (CUSA)
#4 TCU (MWC) vs #13 Iowa (At Large)
#5 Cincinnati (Big East) vs. #12 Oklahoma State (At Large)
#6 Boise State (WAC) vs #11 Oregon (Pac-10)
#7 Georgia Tech (ACC) vs #10 Ohio State (Big Ten)
#8 LSU (At Large) vs #9 Pitt (At Large)
