The Trouble With T.C.U.
Posted: November 9th, 2003, 8:36 pm
-9-0 as of November 9th
-ranked 9th in BCS Standings
-ranked in top 15 in both polls (also as of 11/9/03)
Now you may be asking yourself, "What is the trouble with T.C.U.?"
T.C.U. is a member of Conference USA. Conference USA is not a BCS conference and legally therefore should not be allowed to participate in a BCS bowl game because of this. ALso, T.C.U.'s schedule was ranked 2nd easiest in terms of last years records, and their non-conference schedule was the easiest by these standards.
Now, I for one, do not think that it is fair to deny an undefeated team, like TCU the oppurtunity to compete in a bowl game because of a legality they had very little say in. What else can TCU do other than win all their games? Nothing, would be the correct answer.
What do you think about this controversy which will become bigger with every "Horned Frog" victory?
