I'm sure this developing story has already been a topic of conversation on this board......if not, oh, the irony and the sweet justice of this potentiality. Perhaps Mack Brown will hire his campaign manager a few months early this season and start the hand shaking and baby-kissing campaign before things get too precarious for the old 'Horns.....
What if we ended up in the Fiesta - and they in the Holiday? - what if we PLAYED Texas in the Holiday Bowl? Nice......

Yeah, but it doesn't look like Texas will lose, there by ruining your comparison. Texas's destiny is in their hands. If they win out, there is no doubt in my mind they will play for the NC. Had Cal won out, they wouldn't have gotten passed over by a more deserving team.

^^^^^^^^
Exactly! Cal also showed that the BCS made the correct choice last season. And if mtoo had read to the end of his article he would have seen that at this time last year there were 13 unbeaten teams instead of 9.

Move on.
Go to the spin zone or main street and be a bitch there.

Since the 03 UCLA game Cal is 20-4

Week Six Top Teams List (10/12/2005):
USC-Eventually they'll get tired of this waiting until the 4th quarter to win act and then we'll have to find something else to fault with them. They're at Notre Dame this weekend, so NBC gets to grab the game and go HD on it. There are other good games on this weekend, at exactly the same time slot... just nobody's telling you (well, CFR is).
Virginia Tech-Castrated turkey. Yep. A friend of mine who attended the University of Arizona made good friends with a professor (who happened to be a VT alum) because in class he once answered the question: "what is a Hokie". Inane college football trivia knowledge gave his career a jump start. I don't know where I am going with this. VT's defensive line is great, go watch them embarrass some people. I think the gap is widening between them and Texas, to tell you the truth. Next.
Texas-Finally got over the Oklahoma problem. Nobody cares, though, because Oklahoma is so bad this year. There are whispers that Texas' suddenly weakening schedule (paging Ohio State) may force them into #3 or worse in the BCS rankings come the end of the year. Ouch.
Georgia-I'm coming around on this team. They're frustratingly inconsistent and may not realize just how good they are (important!), but their defense is superb, they bullied Tennessee on the road, and the offense just looks different (read: improved) with Shockley back there. The running game has also improved (I think its up 50 yards a game from last year).
California-Hiss. Boo. Yeah. Much like ASU against LSU, special teams gaffes did this team in. But special teams gaffes aren't a nightly thing---great offensive and steady defensive play is. The Bears' rushing attack is unreal, and whipped the UCLA defensive line all night. Joe Ayoob is still a shadow of what he will become, but its pretty apparent that the guy is getting a feel for the offense and can make a lot more variety of throws than his predecessor.
Alabama-I'm still hesitant with this team. Brodie Croyle is a quarterback far greater than anything that's come before him of recent memory, but we're still talking about a David Mike Shula team here.
Florida-Just as hesitant with this choice. Chris Leak and DeShawn Wynn are banged up to the point where I'm not sure either will finish the season. That may be a good thing, to make room for guys who fit better into Meyer's plans: frosh quarterback Josh Portis and frosh back Markus Manson. The defense is playing alright (Alabama slaughter aside), enough to keep this team afloat while the offense limps through each game.
Notre Dame-Coach Weis appears to be a profound leader, as he has his team believing and not killing itself. The fact that they came back from a pretty solid beating against Michigan State to tie the game before losing is highly encouraging. Any blowout loss worries me (see hesitancy with Florida, above), and the Irish under Weis don't look like a team that's ever out of a game. Can they hold on against USC this weekend? I don't know.
Michigan State-Drew Stanton's amazing. If you can install a great offensive system and plug in a stud at the game's most important position to run it, you'll usually end up doing alright.
UCLA-Great win against California. Apparently, there's been a change within the team over the last few months as coach Karl Dorrell has gone from the frigid, awkward captain, to a leader of his team, responding to players' concerns and shedding the NFL "hands off" approach to not being involved in players' lives. What that says about UCLA's players that they need their coach to relate to them in order to succeed, I don't know. Either way, this team has a psychological edge right now in that they believe they can win games. It was enough to beat Cal.
