Top 25 Off to a Bad Start

#9 ranked BYU(6-1) probablly threw away a BCS spot on thursday with a 32-7 loss to TCU(7-1). The only way BYU will probablly take a BCS spot would be if all of the remaining top 10 teams all lose. They should get lucky to get ranked #15 after this one. One The other hand, TCU improved to 7-0 and will easilly be a top 25 team after sunday’s voting. Wouldnt be suprised if they become ranked 20+. Where was this TCU team before though, they were 6-1 but you would never here of them. They were probablly being overshadowed by a tough BYU team and a suprising Utah both in the same conference.
We here alot about the Big XII and the SEC being the hardest conference’s these days, but nothing about the Mountain West. I mean, there not the best, but there up they’re with them.
This game was pretty much won early by the Frogs, with a touch down three minutes into the game. And another 6 minutes later. With just over one minute to go, TCU up 17-0 now, Andy Dalton has his second TD pass of the game. But Ross Evans wasnt able to make the extrapoint to exxtend the lead to 24.
It was 23-0 going into the third and 26-0 after about four minutes. Then BYU finally had a high point with 4:26 to go in the third with a two yard Max Hall touch down run. TCU would score again and miss the PAT yet again also.
TCU and #14 Utah(7-0) are the only two BCS busters that look like they have a chance right now. Utah is undefeated and TCU’s only loss was against #4 Oklahoma(6-1).
GAME NOTES
Game Probablly knocked BYU out of the BCS
BYU was never able to reach TCU’s first quarter score of fourteen.
