Again, Notre Dame is not in a conference, so their conference champ hasn't been "dialed" two years in a row. Based on what qualifications dwc laid out as to who can post on this thread, I really can be talking.LJ wrote: They have auto qualifer status pertaining to their ranking and record, which includes them in this convo. -

Either you are really this dense, or you just refuse to believe anyone that says something against your opinion. Notre Dame has auto qualifier status. They are a 1 team conference. Their conference champ was destroyed in all 3 of their appearances, so why should they be an auto qualifier? They should have at large status, not their own auto qualifier nor non-bcs. Just plain at large status. Notre Dame REALLY does not deserve auto qualifier status.karen lotz wrote:ytownfootball wrote:

Yeah ok, because they are independent, they are in a one team conference. Are you that dense that you don't understand what independent means? Yes, they have auto qualifier status if they reach certain criteria, just like non BCS teams do. Saying Notre Dame is a conference champ and automatic qualifier is laughable. According to you, they won their "conference" every year of the BCS' existence, except I've never seen any mention of it and they only have 3 BCS appearances? Seems like ND didn't get a very good deal...LJ wrote: Either you are really this dense, or you just refuse to believe anyone that says something against your opinion.

Cleveland BuckFirst of all, you have the Big East 8-6 when they are 7-7. They were 1-2 in 2007, but you counted it as 2-1. Anyway, if you add in this year they are 9-9 and the Big Ten is 11-23 vs. BCS conferences over that time period (with one game left). Here is how that happens:
Since 2005 the Big Ten has played up (played a team placed higher in their conference, example the 8th place Big Ten team playing the 2nd place ACC team) 13 times. That is 13 games they should lose. The Big East has played down (played a team placed lower in their conference) 12 times. That is 12 games they should win. They didn't play up one single time. Here is the breakdown.
Big Ten:
Played up 13 times.
Played down 6 times.
Played even 15 times.
Big East:
Played down 12 times.
Played even 6 times.
Take out the 13 games that the Big Ten should lose and the 12 games the Big East should win, and the records would be dramatically different.
One guy on here claimed that the Big East would have a better national perception if they had Big Ten tie-ins. Their bowl record would be ugly if they did, even uglier than the Big Ten's record.

Tell me, what has ND done to deserve that AQ status over the other independants? What gives them status like a conference champion?#
# A special case is made for independent Notre Dame, which receives an automatic berth if it finishes in the top eight.
Are you so dense that you don't understand that ND is being treated like a conference champion when they reach #8? Why do they deserve that? What have they done to deserve that? 3 BCS appearances, 3 blowout losses. Give me a break. Go spew your opinionated bullshit somewhere else. Hell, I even LIKE Notre Dame. -

I'm not sure what they have done to deserve it but I didn't write the BCS selection procedures, did I? Someone who was a part of that process felt it was necessary to include that Notre Dame clause.LJ wrote:

What have those conferences done to show they deserve that clause? There are 10 BCS spots available, correct? If a MAC champion ended at #12 in the BCS rankings, do they deserve to take a spot away from a team ranked ahead of them from one of the BCS conferences? Not necessarily. The Bylaws were written to be fair to everyone, not to give an edge to Notre Dame.The champion of Conference USA, the Mid-American Conference, the Mountain West Conference, the Sun Belt Conference, or the Western Athletic Conference will earn an automatic berth in a BCS bowl game if either:
A. Such team is ranked in the top 12 of the final BCS Standings, or,
B. Such team is ranked in the top 16 of the final BCS Standings and its ranking in the final BCS Standings is higher than that of a champion of a conference that has an annual automatic berth in one of the BCS bowls. -

The highest ranked champion from a combination of those conferences gets the AQ bid, you cherry picked that part out. So only 1 non-AQ team gets an AQ bid. So, you ask, why is Notre Dame included in this discussion? Because they have the Notre Dame Clause, they aren't battling with scores of other teams for 1 AQ bid, they get their own if they are #8. They don't deserve it.karen lotz wrote:

The non-AQ conferences are 3-1 in BCS bowls, I believe that deserves an AQ-bid over ND don't you? -
karen lotzWhat did I cherry pick out? That is quoted from the BCS selection process page. One of those champions will get a berth IF it is ranked in the top 12 or top 16 and it is ranked higher than an AQ from a BCS conference. So what would be more deserving? A team playing a schedule full of directional schools that ends up ranked #12 or a Notre Dame team that is ranked #8?

ytownfootballCleveland Buck-nice leg work

karen lotzSo you are still saying that the highest ranked non BCS conference champion gets an automatic bid?? You failed to bring that up after I slowly explained the IF in their clause.

I never said that the highest ranking non BCS conference champ didn't get an Auto bid.
They have also gone 3-1 and ND has gone 0-3.
Obviously the non BCS conference bid is much more worthy than the Notre Dame bid. -
