Their track record over the past few seasons has established their bona fides. Maybe they play in a lesser conference, but there is no doubt they can play with anybody.The Gurunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6331918571067993675.post-24247105517211429672011-09-30T08:50:33.597-07:002011-09-30T08:50:33.597-07:00Guru,

Ahead of Alabama? Your reasoning, which is usually good, doesn't hold up. Your stated reason is that Bama lacks a signature win. And who exactly has Boise beaten? Georgia? Well so did South Carolina, so shouldn't they be ranked ahead of both Boise and Bama? Please don't give me the closer score argument. It was a comference game between annual rivals in the heat on the road, not a game where an also ran had 8 months to get ready to play in a cool dome with turf. Note also that the Gamecocks had to play a game against a bowl team to start the year.<br /><br />It will all shake out, yes, but the ranking of Boise at number 3 is a farce.Bill Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16230613559896591748noreply@blogger.com
