Tulsa said:Texas -7? Haaahahaa. No. That may be more realistic or maybe it isn't but lines are set due to supply and demand principles not just the actual game and -17.5 is my good guess.

Tulsa said:Oh..I forgot. My wish for Christmas this year...my request to Santa would be: Please oh please let Louisville and Boise State both kick ass the rest of the season and let both of them demand attention from the country and screw UP THE BCS WHICH IS A HUGE CROCK. This would help blow up the BCS (or implement huge changes)....and that would be fun to see.

Journeyman said:This is a down year for top teams in college football, after Ohio State and maybe Michigan, WVU and Louisville... I really could see a team 'like' a Boise State stunning many big name schools...
The ACC is way down, The SEC has a lot of good to very good teams but not the real standouts of years past, The Pac Ten , similar to the SEC but not quite as good, The Big 12 , another conference with good teams but not great teams...
This is pretty much a year of great balance in sports with not many great teams, it could be a trend we're starting to see, less greatness and more balance...I like great teams personally.
jwunderdog said:Texas's power rating is no more then 4 points ahead of Boise. They would not be a double digit favorite on a neutral field.I assume you are talking about the 2006 Texas team that was lucky to get by Neb and TT?, not the 2005 national champs?
