This is not surprising. Also consider the fact that TCU has played and won two more games that BSU (9 vs. 7)and I am guessing that factors in as well. TCU still has three games left this season which includes Utah. Boise State has five games left including Hawaii, Nevada, Idaho, Fresno State and Utah State. I think the leap_FROG is basically a temporary thing for TCU if both teams win out. To take the leap over Boise State with a win over UNLV (1-7, sole win was New Mexico) shows the computers were programmed a little strange. I bet the program contains a bias which assumed UNLV would be strong this year because it is a BCS school with a strong schedule (logic dictates if most of the schedule is BCS then it must be assumed it is a stronger schedule, therefore, a non AQ team to beat a BCS team with a strong schedule is worth more in the computer bias (even if the team losing is crappy).
By the time the schedule is completed and all games are factored in I would think TCU will end behind BSU if both teams win out.
TCU's last two games are with San Diego State and New Mexico.
Win or Lose - IT'S HOW YOU HYPE THE OUTCOME! BCS logic: When teams in the AQ conferences lose, it shows how tough those conferences are; when teams in non-AQ conferences lose, it is weakness.
