That's correct. And one lost to Indiana.


So the top team in the East lost to Indiana but didnt lose to any west team...

Kind of adds another bullet to the OP dont you think?

No. The top teams in the west only lost to good teams with the exception of LSU losing to Notre Dame. But Notre Dame is no pushover. Missouri lost to Indiana. There's a big difference.

And TCU has proven to be very underrated. BTW, they beat Minnesota pretty bad.

Not really. The op is a insecure and is trying to justify his whining and crying all year about the board ranking West teams over his Mizzou team all year.

This gets lost in the shuffle as well. Was brought up when State barely got by Kentucky but quickly brushed aside.

Wrong.

I was, obviously now, just pointing out the West was overrated.

You can try and make this about Mizzou, me, or whatever. The point, is now and was then, that the West is overrated.

Argue that.

Indiana never was good this year. In fact, they only won 4 games. How in the hell did Missouri manage to lose to Indiana?

shite happens. Im not going to make any excuses about that loss.

What does that have to do with the topic of the thread though?

Seems like go to straw man which is quite telling honestly.

None of these teams showed up for these bowl games and you have to take them seriously. I bet if they played rematches all 3 teams probably win. On second thought, maybe not Ole Miss. They would probably have to be at full strength with Treadwell back at WR.

it's like LSU a couple of seasons ago against Clemson. They didn't play seriously and Clemson viewed it as a NC type game. They kept bragging all summer long about how they had beaten LSU and they barely won the game even against a lethargic LSU offense that season. I wish these teams would show up for these bowl games so the SEC overrated nonsense would stop.

No. I'm discussing facts. Did any team in the west lose to any bad team or below average team? The west may have gotten a lot of hype but it wasn't that much overrated.

I kind of hope the SEC loses every remaining bowl game.

Either that or the West just has a higher opinion of themselves than they have any right to be.

Look, this thread never would have happened, but the west was running around talking about how weak the east was this year, and how great the west was. I believe several posters even said the last place west team would win the east. Wow. Things change, don't they? The west looks like crap now, and they want to fall back on saying they didn't prepare for their bowl games? VERY weak.

You can try to hide behind this, but that wasn't the point then and isn't now. Your entire point of trying to knock down the West is in relation to how Mizzou is viewed. Your post history and incessant crying is proof.

The West, despite the losses yesterday, is still easily the best division in college football.

Serious?

We went from 4 of the top 5 teams in the country and self proclaimed GOAT division in college football to what happened that last couple of days.

Thats all.

Look, the West is a good division but pardon the rest of us plebs while we laugh a little watching the house of cards crumble just a bit.

No what's really weak is any arky fan in this thread, after we abused your team in the 4th QT and beat you. This really isn't too hard to comprehend.

And spare me the excuses of why Mizzou beat arky.

Really? That's how the majority of you coonass bastards think. I'd sure hate to be in a foxhole with any of y'all during wartime...a fanbase full of George Costanzas!

Well it was pretty obvious to me early in the season that the west was down when you have LSU losing to the likes of MSU and Auburn.

Really? I think stating the West is overrated is pretty self evident.

What "crying"? If by crying you mean rightfully pointing out all year that the West was overrated you may want to look in the mirror and honestly look at who is crying now that the season has come to fruition.

Who is going to argue that the West was overrated this year? Seems I was right in the early going and you are doing the crying now.
