The notion that the WAC is getting screwed is born in the fact BCS rules were changed recently to expand the number of teams from the “BCS” conferences that could qualify for the higher dollar bowls.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-22895509184048612002007-11-24T13:53:00.000-08:002007-11-24T13:53:00.000-08:00I was just searching thru the blogs and was intere...I was just searching thru the blogs and was interested in the title "BCS is Trying to Screw the WAC". Theres a big difference between Kansas and Hawaii. I'll get Kansas out of the way quickly, they play in the Big 12, most of their opponents are ranked between 50 and 75, and they play #4 Missouri. So if they win out then they are much more legit. Granted the Big 12 isnt the SEC, but it also isnt the WAC. The Big 12 is 36-11 against non-conf opponents and the WAC is 15-20. Now for Hawaii, before the Boise State game Hawaii's highest ranked opponent was #56 Fresno State, with many opponents ranked below 100. And yes Boise was ranked in the top 20, interestingly enough Boise's strength of schedule is second to last, with Hawaii's being dead last. If Hawaii wants national respect then they should stop playing powder-puff football.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-35065843597460756572007-11-24T08:24:00.000-08:002007-11-24T08:24:00.000-08:00Colt Brennan passed for 495 yards and five touchdo...Colt Brennan passed for 495 yards and five <BR/>touchdowns.
