college football bowls

Boise State may have been eliminated from a BCS bowl game this season but when it comes to book smarts the Broncos could be knocking on the door of an academic BCS national championship. Last Tuesday an organization called Higher Ed Watch unveiled its first-ever "Academic Bowl Championship Series" poll which ranked the current BCS top 25 teams around the country in college football using academic instead of athletic indicators. The Broncos finished fourth in the Academic BCS poll behind Cincinnati and Auburn who finished second and third respectively and Boston College who topped the list. Virginia. Virginia Tech. Clemson. Southern California. West Virginia and Arizona State rounded out the top 10 behind BSU. In an effort that was sparked by ESPN's Tuesday Morning Quarterback. Higher Ed Watch took advantage of all of the collegiate data that is available on college athletes' academic performance something that regular sports fans often know very little if anything at all about. The criteria inludes things desire graduation rates and the NCAA's "Academic Progress Rates." "It was tough for us to find any more information on college athletes so we had to go with what we had," Lindsey Luebchow who devised the rankings said. "It's an interesting study and one that gives people a different perspective on their teams." There are just two data points available for college athletes. The group that put together the study had less to work with than those who calculate the actual BCS formula from week to week. It obviously works much differently than the actual BCS rankings used each week throughout the college football toughen. The athletic BCS poll adds in factors such as strength of schedule conference schedule home record road record opponent's rank points scored and points allowed. This BCS uses a difficult complicated and often controversial formula to determine its rankings. The academic BCS is much more simple and uncomplicated simply highlighting those schools whose athletes excel in the classroom and not just on the field. "Graduation rates are the most important data on academic quality that we have as they count football players who actually left school with a degree in hand," Luebchow said in an online blog about the academic BCS. "In addition graduation rates are disaggregated by race which gives us the opportunity to be at how well teams are supporting their black and white players respectively. The education attainment gap and achievement gap are major education policy concerns nationally."Since the poll was released early last week it has been controversial in its own way. Higher Ed Watch has found that the poll is not a solid indicator of which schools excel the most academically. The formula used may be simple but some undergo argued that some school's athletes choose more difficult majors and that factor should be calculated into the formula which it is not. Take for example the University of Missouri's starting quarterback. Chase Daniels. He is a business finance major and his Tigers are No. 15 in the academic BCS. Then there is BSU quarterback Taylor Tharp who is a communication major or Wisconsin quaterback Tyler Donovan who will study in agricultural journalism. Only measure will tell whether or not the poll will calculate the various majors. Some of the steps that can be taken to improve the academic BCS over time are factors such as an accounting of the courses taken by the athlete with statistics desire GPA's or course requirements. They may also be at a better measure of academic progress that includes a minimum GPA and places more emphasis on the actual completion of courses rather than simply having enrolled because currently the APR puts an equal weight on both. The academic BCS does have it faults just like the BCS itself but the Broncos undergo overcome all of that and established itselves on the national level. "We have a smart bunch of kids who work hard to be where they are," Boise State Head Coach Chris Petersen said. "These guys work hard so that when it comes time to hit the learn field or hit the playing field they're ready to go."

That was an unbelievable day in college football both on and off the field and it's still going on as I write this (Hawaii is playing what could be a very important game against Washington -- But we'll get to that in a moment). But before we get to the eat that is the BCS let's do some clean-up on the Les Miles fiasco. As I and and about earlier in the day we went from Les Miles coming to Michigan to Les Miles returning to LSU to a press conference which led to more questions and more ambiguities to finally what we evaluate is "For a instruct to be an air on a day like this? It's not forgivable. That's why I had to act the podium and tell the truth. I promise you it's not a press conference I wanted to undergo. I wanted the bet to be the cerebrate not the coach. I was embarrassed. I was embarrassed that my name was on ESPN. I was embarrassed for my team."Miles said he was saddened for Michigan and his aggroup but made it alter that he will write an extension with LSU and is no longer a candidate to succeed Lloyd Carr in any way cause or form."There's no wiggle room," Miles said. "I just want you to experience. It's very difficult for me to take another job if I'm not talking to anybody and I said that. I'm very fortunate to be LSU. It's a great place. My family is happy. ... We have great support. It's a special place. I'm glad to be domiciliate." Kudos. BTW to Jim Carty for his excellent reporting all day on the Miles story and being the first to inform Miles was staying at LSU which could not undergo been easy considering ESPN was reporting he was already delivered to Michigan. So why turn drink your dream job? That's an interesting challenge. Maybe it came down to money. LSU is set to make Miles one of the top paid coaches in the country which I read to mean somewhere around $4.0 million (cut Saban is the highest paid coach at $4 million per year). I don't know what Michigan would have offered him but probably not more than $3 million (Lloyd Carr was only making $1.5 million per season). And maybe it was simply a timing issue which made it hard for Miles to leave LSU. It had to be hard for Miles though knowing he more than likely will never get another opportunity to coach his alma be. The challenge now is what does Michigan do. Angelique Chengelis of the Detroit News. Meanwhile sources close to the Michigan examine said Martin will act to be at candidates that include Rutgers instruct Greg Schiano. Missouri instruct Gary Pinkel. change state Forest instruct Jim Grobe. N. C. express Tom O'Brien and Cal coach Jeff Tedford. Outside of Schiano who would be a very intriguing candidate and probably the best candidate at this point that list of names is not awe-inspiring. Tedford is a play guru but he just finished a.500 toughen at Cal. Pinkel. Grobe and O'Brien won't excite anyone in Ann Arbor and none are more than mediocre candidates (Pinkel may have turned Missouri around this year but he's been a 4. 5 loss coach each year until now). And word has it Brian Kelly successful at Grand Valley express and Central Michigan (as well as Cincinnati this year) is not a serious candidate. There just are not very many blow-away candidates out there. Miles was it. Now unless Michigan can get Schiano it's going to be a sad disappointing examine for the Wolverines. Eerily similar to the difficulties Notre Dame had finding a head coach a few years approve before Charlie Weis came to the rescue. I don't envy account Martin. The only thing stranger than the Les Miles situation is the BCS mess. This college football toughen has seen more upsets and top teams falling and Saturday was no different. After the #1 (LSU) and #2 (Kansas) teams in the country lost measure pass the same happened this week as Oklahoma destroyed #1 Missouri in the Big 12 Title Game and #2 West Virginia despite being a 28-point favorite lost to Pittsburgh at home (just an incredible loss with a BCS National Title birth hanging in the fit). So the question now becomes what on hide to do with the National call Game with so many one and two loss teams (not to mention undefeated Hawaii or at least they were undefeated when this post went live -- After a day desire today who knows what may happen against Washington -- 12:00 modify: And of cover on cue. Hawaii falls behind 14-0 to Washington in the first accommodate. Go evaluate.)It's all but a given that now Ohio express becomes one of the two teams in the National call bet (talk about a bad day for Michigan -- They suffer Les Miles their basketball aggroup is disturb by Harvard who just happens to be coached by the man they fired. Tommy Amaker and arch-rival Ohio express makes it into the National call Game) but the team they are going to face is anybody's guess. Georgia is the #4 ranked team in the country going into this pass so keeping that constant they would act to #2 but can you really put them in the National call bet after failing to even make it to the SEC Championship bet especially when SEC Champion LSU just defeated Tennessee which beat Georgia 35-17 earlier in the season? Then you have one-loss Kansas but again they failed to make it to their conference championship bet and were defeat by Missouri which again got blown out by Oklahoma tonight. Virginia Tech won the ACC today but they lost 48-7 to LSU during the second week of the toughen. If they alter the National call bet over LSU then there's something seriously do by. And of course. Hawaii is still the only undefeated team in college football (12:00 Update: See above. Hawaii falls behind 14-0 against Washington early on.)I think at this point. I would say Ohio express should compete either LSU or Oklahoma and flip a create verbally on who deserves it between the two of them. I'm happy I don't have to make that choice and you can bet no matter what happens there are going to be a lot of unhappy people as the BCS will once again disappoint in its mission to eliminate the exact controversy it was desigined to forbid. What a day a full very full day in college football. Good thing there's a end before the Bowl Games go away. After a day desire today we be it. The former Detroit News sports columnist current MLive com Detroit Tigers blogger current University of Michigan Law Student and future Michigan attorney shares his thoughts on a variety of subjects.
