    But thats the exact point he was making... that he shouldve been ruled ineligible, and its an absolute joke that the NCAA has ruled its ok for parents to shop a kid around.

    Isn't the Big 12 2-4?

    With the body of work they had I agree with you. However much of Auburn's body of work was due to Cam Newton. So had he been ruled ineligible with 3 or 4 games left I think they probably lose to bama, and if I were voting for the top 25 would not put them as a top 2 team without Newton.

    IMO TCU>Auburn without Newton

    However it didn't go that way so Auburn is definitely the one that should be playing for the title.

    At the same time... TCU beating Wisconsin isnt exactly a convincing argument for a national title, especially when wisconsin was part of a conference that went 0-5 today. I wouldve liked to see TCU against say... Alabama.

    I so wish we could have had Oregon-TCU. That game would have been incredible!

    Maybe the big 1"0" should stop hogging all of the new years games and get aligned with some lower bowls and maybe they will compete better.

I don’t care where you come from, whether it’s Texas, Florida, California, or right here in the state of Iowa, I don’t care about any of that… But what I did care about is moving forward from that day on, that we were one team." -Paul Rhoads

    It is.

    I'm actually counting it as 2-3 though as I have awarded the Big 10 the Nebraska game as I keep hearing this is the first game of the 2011 season.

    If it was another game I agree, but I wouldn't have wanted to see that at the expense of the 2 matchups that did happen.

    I loved watching TCU beat Wisky, and I'm actually really pumped to see what happens with the title game. I don't think Auburn should be eligible because I disagree with the NCAA ruling about Cam, but with him in that should be a hell of a game to watch.

    LMAO!!!!!!!!


    Big 10 2-5
    Big 12 2-4

    Big 10 2-1 vs Big 12 including upset over one of your better teams(would be 3-0 if Persa wasn't hurt)

    There, that was a lot easier.

    Yeah that's my bad! I still stick to my statement that the big 10 doesn't make the big 12 look good.

    I refuse to believe most major BCS programs don't cheat. Cam's just a little higher profile. I just seriously doubt that Oregon or TCU has gotten all their guys on the up and up too.

    Dude, the big 12 is 2-4.
    I don't think I'm alone when I say I'd like to see more and more planets fall under the ruthless domination of our solar system.
