I never said Texas wasn't good
Yes you did. Not in so many words, but like I said, God willing we'll find out in a few weeks.
I also believe that when Boise State went to the bowl game and beat Oklahoma they had a close game or two against teams like L-tech if I remember correctly. Not everyone blows out the teams they should.
They had two close games that year:
17-10 vs Wyoming - That team finished 6-6, and looked like it had the talent to do more than that.
23-20 vs San Jose St - This team went 9-4 and won its bowl game.
That team played great defense. I watched alot of their games as Ive seen alot of Boise St this year. That 2006 defense was FAR superior to this 2009 unit.
This years Boise St team had a damn hard time putting away UC-Davis. You think Florida or Alabama would be up only 13-0 at halftime? More like 21-0 at the end of the 1st QTR.
Tulsa (4-5) and Louisiana Tech (3-6) would have been hammered senseless by that 2006 team.
Does every one blow teams out like they should? No they dont, but we can sit here and argue all day long. We'll find out soon enough,
if Florida can get by Alabama.
