Hey when you have worked your way from the bowels of hell known as Alabama...losing to auburn, tennesse and the likes.... this is freaking cloud nine are you kidding!!!! 
Anyone else watching the BCS Cop Out Bowl tonight, alternatively titled the Tostitos WeEffedYa Bowl?
Roll Tide..
As a Ute fan, do I dare bring up last years Sugar Bowl? Nah. That would just be mean.

Wasn't expecting this! Why couldn't TCU's offense look so inept when Utah played them?

Boise's got all the swagger early. If this was a basketball game, Patterson would be calling timeout right now.

TCU's had the deer-in-the-headlights look all game. Any score before halftime would be huge for them.

Huge!
Huge!
I'm less than impressed with the officiating in this game. The pass interference call on the wrong team is the worst.
That aside, I had higher hopes for TCU. Boise has surprised me so far. We'll see how the second half goes.

I second that..... Very sloppy play on the QB's part. Here is to a better second half!

And there's the Chris Peterson magic. Ballsy call on the fake punt, but perfect timing since TCU's defense had taken over the game.
Hat's off.

This game perfectly demonstrates the point that you don't necessarily deserve a national title appearance if you're undefeated.

You just fell into the BCS trap. That's exactly what "they" want you to think.
Both defenses played exceptionally well and shut down two very good offenses. Hard to say how either would do against Texas or Alabama, but just because it was a low-scoring, defensive struggle doesn't mean these aren't good teams.

Great point. Especially considering that coming into the night, TCU had the #1 total defense and Boise St. was #14. To me, they each just played into their strengths.
