So you don't think we're worthy of a BCS game either. Our schedule sucked and we didn't beat people by enough (esp. Army, Kansas).

RE: So what would be our record if....
I agree with the idea of we're not "worthy". However...we're also probably much more "worth" than a game against a 7-5 Sun Belt team or something...there doesn't seem to be much middle ground.
And the Big East doesn't seem worthy either.
So if something crazy happens and we make it, I'm certainly not going to apologize.

I think we are worthy of a BCS for sure !!!
But I think our schedule and the MAC is holding us back

RE: So what would be our record if....
There's no question we would have a worse record if we played some of those other schedules. However, this is the part that cracks me up: WE DIDN'T CREATE THE SYSTEM. WE ARE JUST PLAYING OUR SCHEDULE AND ACCORDING TO THE BCS SYSTEM IN PLACE WE ARE RIGHT ON THE BORDERLINE OF A BCS BOWL BID.
We play according to their rules, and with a budget that's a fraction of those other schools, and play most of our OOC games on the road unlike the big boys, and now they're shitting their pants because we may actually crash the party. We're like the Beverly Hillbillies to them.

We have granny and Jed which doesn't look good, but we have Jethro and Ellie Mae too...
seriously, the home field advantage is big. We played who was in front of us. If we played Iowa as a true home game, we would be 13-0. But our schedule does suck.
