Here's an interesting thought. A two loss team from the Big East is going into a BCS bowl, rather than an undefeated Mountain West team like Oklahoma, that beat Texas A&M at the start of the season. I'd love it too if Boston College lost one of its next two games, and Pitt beats WVU. That means that the Big East champ has lost three games, and they still get a BCS bid, while an undefeated mid major doesn't. That would cause them to seriously rethink the system, which stinks.
Unfortunately, Wisconsin lost today, so that only leaves three unbeatens that can contend for the national title game. Utah should be able to contend via a playoff after the BCS games, but it won't ever happen. But if Auburn, USC, and Oklahoma remain unbeaten, that draws attention to the national title game, and it means that one team got cheated at a chance for the national title. So if all that happens, they may even get rid of the BCS. Chances are though, so long as USC and Oklahoma play, it doesn't matter if Auburn goes undefeated, and they'll leave it go because everybody's happy but Auburn and Utah.

when does pitt get its chance to smack around the eeeeeeers?? palko is hot and he will put up 50 on the eeeeeers. maybe wvu can play psu in the toitet bowl!!!

Boston College is one of the top 10 football teams in the country. They play inconsistent football every year. They have proven 500 times that they can beat anyone on any night, and also lose to anyone on any night. Expect them to lose another game. It doesn't matter who they play.

So what you are saying is that they are a spoiler.

I happen to agree that they can be a spoiler

What do they lack that prohibits them from taking the next step?

I was actually sorry to see WVU drop this one, but BC is a lot better than their previous ranking suggests.

where are all the proud eeeeeeeers fans?????? maybe they got burnt in a couch fire and are seeking treatment??????????????

Edited: Pouring gas on a fire; no pun intended.

i think that the big difference in yardage was do to the fact that bc was up the entire time and used more conservative play calling and wvu was able to load the box on them. had it been a close game bc would have been able to move the ball on them no doubt!!! bc has big time talent and top quality coaches!!! go eagles!!!!! smack,,,smack,,,smack!!

Looks like the Pitt/WVU game will be for the Gator bowl, huh?

WT

The EERS will recover from this tough lose and win at the Burgh in 2 weeks. They will still get a BCS bid after it is all said and done!! Letssssssss Goooooooo Mountaineers!!
