If BC can whip # 9 Southern Cal ....

then the Tigers can win at Tally. BC totally fooled me. Play calls were outstanding, and they gained 452 yards on the ground. Tigers have same opportunity.

I give credit where its due. That was BC's night for sure. They certainly played a great game. We gotta play our A game this year if they can replicate that home performance.

So, where do you feel like teams should be ranked preseason?

Cause your guess is better than most if you're honest. USC is one of the four or five teams outside the SEC that gets love from the pollsters every season.
USC is a good example, while keeping OSU and ND in mind. Just a few years have passed since USC began the season ranked #1 for no practical reason. They were soon exposed and finished the season unranked. Now consider ND's last appearance in the BCS and add OSU's ranking last year and the ### whuppin we put on them.

I agree with you. No way that USC team

was a top 10 team. Still, nobody expected them to get pushed around and thrashed like BC did it. Boston College?? Heck, now I'm starting to worry about them!

came in overconfident after beating "mighty" Stanford, thinking BC would be a pushover. Plus the flight coast to coast will take a toll on anyone.
Bandana Game!!!
Ripe for the upset.

they probably dismissed BC as a scrub ACC team. That's why the playoff committee won't generate a poll until much football has been played. Early polls contaminate the process.

Virginia Tech exposed Ohio State for what they are.
(A much over-rated team)
And they pretty much have the same team they had in that Orange Bowl loss last year)

Not surprised BC won. Their trenches are pretty good.

They just need to get some good skill players and will be a in the top 25 regularly.

title last year. We can win, but this game isn't comparable to the BC vs USC game.
