No one expected much from Ball State after their QB Nate Davis went to the NFL and their head coach took off for sunnier skies in San Diego.

They only get a mention here because of their achievements last year. And because this girl is kind of cute.

Nevada cheerleaders are never photographed by themselves. They attack swiftly and in droves.

Hey, some guys prefer it that way.

Now you know why these girls are ticked.

Hey, that doesn't look like the the northern part of Illinois in the background!

Like the team, these cheerleaders are a little out of their element.

Western Michigan had an opportunity to upset Michigan in the Big House. They couldn't come close.

Then they at least had a chance to beat Indiana. Came up short again.

Guess they can kiss their BCS shot goodbye.

The East Carolina Pirates were a sexy pick for the mid-major BCS bid after their wins over West Virginia and Virginia Tech last year, but they couldn't pull the win against the Mountaineers or UNC this year.

Not to add insult to injury, but it looks like this cheerleader is taken.

I like how this cheerleader holds her megaphone.

BCS Buster status: limp.

BYU has cheerleaders?

They're hot?!

I guess they're mascot is the Cougar...

Sweet Mormon Brown, I'm thinking of converting!

They're still contenders in the MWC, just not the BCS. Sorry, Utes.

I list Notre Dame because, a) they're an Independent, b) they've got a lot of talent, c) Irish fans will still be insulted that I ranked them here, d) that's fun, and e) she's cute.

Success makes some people go crazy.

What do you expect from an offense based off of Mike Leach's brain?

They raise more exciting things than spuds in Idaho.

They also raise cows.

Why, what were you thinking?

Uh, um, Christianity, and, uh, strength of schedu- whoa, uh, stiffest D in the league, er, good win over Clems-, hummina, (panting), horny toads, speed rush...

circuits fried...
