Open Thread: More Mountain West Conference Fun

PrintThe first two games are the marquee matchups with Wyoming at Air Force and CSU traveling to TCU. Remember all Versus is still off of DirecTv, but if you are resourceful you can find the game. CSU is trying to end their three game skid, which I doubt. Wyoming and Air Force looks to be the game of the day with both inching toward bowl eligibility. Also, the Utes are looking for revenge in Vegas after the 27-0 debacle in 2007.
Also, feel free to comment on other games that may effed the MWC rankings and TCU's chances to inch up for a potential BCS bid.
Wyoming @ Air Force 12PM MST 
Colorado State at TCU 2:00PM MST

BYU @ San Diego State 4PM MST
Utah at UNLV 8PM MST

is there any doubt that game will be a beatdown. the weather is perfect
cincinnatti will lose one of their last 3 games. they have uconn, west virginia and pittsburgh. that is another team tcu will climb over in the top ten. it is going to work it’s way out by the end of the season when tcu goes undefeated. i just noticed something funny. there is some purple on the front page of the mwc blog. that is the same color the tcu hornfrogs are filling up their 12 block pyramid with every win. that is a good omen of things to come.

If Wyo wins
Dave Christensen should be coach of the year. If they win today and finish with a bowl berth.
Okla going to lose
That hurts BYU’s win and TCU’s hope to have anyone above them lose.
Bring back Fum's Song!
Damn you Versus!
I wanted to relax and watch the game at home but your not on Direct TV so I am off to the sports bar. Go Rammies!
Bring back Fum's Song!
Looks like they took The Mtn off
Maybe it will be back up later.

Next Week
BYU and TCU is going to be the best game next week with the two highest ranked teams. But on Versus which sucks because it is still off of DirecTv, and there will be little pub for the game nationally.
Ark/Flo
Is huge for the non-BCS. Well at least i think if Florida loses that will knock them out of the top 5, but last year they did lose to Ole Miss and still made the title game.
Aztecs playing decent fundamental football
But Max Hall leading a surgical methodical drive into the red zone.

tcu crushing csu like i said
ohio state lost. cincy will lose either to wvu, uconn or pitt. three teams from 15 to 25 have already lost and more to come. so byu and utah will rise accordingly. you know alabama is watching that arkansas/florida game. i did something i have never done. i’m taking alabama and giving 18 points to south carolina just b/c they know they have the opportunity to be #1 when the first bcs poll comes out. it’s working out great for the mwc and no okie or ohio state in bcs bowl. peace.

yup.
SDSU does have the #11 pass defense in the nation, but that’s only because there is no need to pass, can’t stop the run.

stop worrying about byu. they will win. they might not cover. but they will win.
tcu will stomp all over them next week. nebraska got crushed by tt. byu moves ahead of them. nd, south florida and okie have all lost so far. that is already 4 more teams out of the top 25. utah needs to crush unlv badly. i also see an azz kicking by alabama over south carolina. not b/c it helps the mwc that much but it helps alabama take over the #1 spot when the new bcs bowl comes out. florida had to score that last fg to beat a medicore arkansas team. georgia scored 51 points on them. plus if s.c losses another sec team gone from the rankings. alabama has been gaining number 1 votes all season long. they will play inspired football.t here would be only three sec teams left and more spaces utah can slide up. it’s working out like is said a week ago.

National Radio
Just listening to sporting news and the guys are clueless! They were talking about how maybe TCU and Boise making the BCS, and then one guy says TCU’s defense has not been that great this year and their offense does not have any ‘pop.’ However they have had four games with 30 or more points or more and the most their defense game up was 21. Those guys are a joke.
TOUCHDOWN AZTECS!

It was a good game
Missed tackles and such killed us but if there is such thing as a moral victory we got it.
this is perfect
tcu crushes csu. both clemson and virginia win again. two teams tcu beat on the road. byu wins. nebraska and okie lost. kansas might lose. byu could be at number 15 in the country while tcu could be at number 7 in the bcs poll. ohio state lost. va tech lost. if utah crushes unlv like i think they will they can move as high as six spots in the standings. great news!

Virginia
Is in the lead in their division for the ACC. That could be huge bonus points for TCU from the computers if Virgina keeps it up.
Points on the board
UNLV has left 7 points. If the Rebels kicked the FG at the end of the half, not faking just now, and they would have kicked the XP earlier.
