Board of ADs in the MWC has apparently put out the suggestion of moving the Boise St./TCU game from Ft. Worth to Boise for "scheduling balance." Convenient that it's TCU's farewell tour in the MWC.

Also reported today that Texas Tech dropped the TCU game in '11 to make room for their 9th conference game.

The bigger shaft is that the MWC gets to count Boise State's BCS ranking from this past season.

Yes.

Are you sure? The way I read that article makes it seem like the MWC is counting TCU's 2010 season.

From what I gathered, the two periods overlap. So they count TCU's results through 2011. And then the Big East counts TCU's 2010 results going forward, and the MWC gets Boise State's results for the same period.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
