Nah Nah Nah Nah, Nah Nah Nah Nah
Hey, hey, hey
Goodbyyyyyye

Hahahahahahaha I love when USC loses!

Hoping Iowa pulls it out in the next 52 seconds.

Edit: They didn't. OSU wins the Big Ten title and earns a berth in the Rose Bowl. Again. YAWN.

I was sooo happy when USC lost. I hate the fact that they are expected to win every year and I love, love, love when they lose.

On an alternate note, Michigan fans are just cruel! With every other Big Ten school, once the game ends, the bickering ends. That was just NOT the case yesterday.

My family is hoping that USC will win enough to be 3rd place in the Pac-10, cause if they do then they'll be heading to the Sun Bowl (they are big USC fans).

We might even have a USC vs Notre Dame game....supposedly that might be pretty intense. I just kinda like

lol

Go Bucks! Beat Michigan!

Today's game against Iowa was a nail-biter. Have to compliment Iowa on their play-their freshman replacement QB did a great job when most predicted OSU would pound them. I was yelling at the tv so much that I upset the dog. He thought I was yelling at him.

So, I ordered my Fiesta tickets and travel package last night. On the one hand I am so excited that my little TCU has a chance to play in a BCS bowl game. On the other, it is soooooooo disapointing that we have to play Boise. Again. (we played- and beat- them last year in the Poinsettia Bowl).

I am not one of these homers that is going to come on here and talk smack that TCU should be playing in the championship game. Honestly, I don't know how they would stack up against Bama, Florida, Texas, Ohio State, etc. However, it is SO maddening that the Powers That Be won't even give us the chance to play a BCS conference team in the bowl to find out. Schools like TCU and Boise get knocked because "they don't play anyone." HOwever, it is not like they aren't trying, but those traditional powerhouse schools *won't* schedule teams like us. This was our opportunity to see how we compare to top teams from strong BCS conferences and we were denied.

Whether TCU or Boise wins the Fiesta Game is irrevelent, as the response will continue to be that "yeah but you just beat another Mid-Major." It is like we were relegated to the kiddie table at Thanksgiving while everyone else is feasting at the grown-up table.

I will go to the game, and I will cheer very loudly for my Frogs, and I will certainly have fun. Even getting to play in a game like this is a dream. Hell, we were stoked to get to go to the Weedeater Bowl in Shreveport my senior year, as our team had been SO bad for SO long. It is just a shame that the opportunity to play in such a big game carries so little meaning. All the team wanted was a chance to show they belonged at that ranking, and a chance to *earn* some national respect. It won't happen playing another non-BCS conference team.

NOthing can be done at this point, so I just wish my team luck and hope that they get over their let-down and enjoy themselves (and play well) in Arizona. Go Frogs!

**On another note, congrats to srmom and her SMU Mustangs who are going to their first bowl game in 25 years! Sorry that you didn't get your Florida-Texas match-up, but SMU's team this year has to have alumni excited again.

Kappamd · #10 12-07-2009, 12:04 PM

I'm with you. I think the match-ups are totally unfair (but that's the BCS for you). It would have been much more interesting to see TCU play Texas and Boise, Alabama (or vice versa) and let the "little schools" have a chance to prove themselves.

VandalSquirrel · #11 12-30-2009, 09:14 PM

OMGWTF two point conversion for the Humanitarian Bowl win?

Also why are people at the Idaho v. Bowling Green Humanitarian Bowl Game in hideous bluorange? Can't you save that crap for when Horned Frogs take your horrible academic school with a great football team down in the chip & dip bowl?

Oh, and congrats on yourn win. We were eating dinner so I just now saw the end.

Hopefully we can have the same outcome without as much white-knuckling. Here's to TCU 60, Boise 3.

Benzgirl · #15 12-30-2009, 10:59 PM

I really wanted BG to win but could only listen to the game rather than watch it. The Smurf Turf was too much on my eyes.

On to the Rose Bowl....I just realized today that it is the Bucks vs. the Ducks. Awful, but it is! I'm sure Lee Corso will have something to say about that.
