That's behind TCU, Miami OH, Boise State, and a few others. Thats a bold statement.
Also, the "they've beaten __ Div I-A teams" doesn't hold much water. Why? Because I grew up in Idaho, I've seen what a joke the Idaho Vandals are, and they are Div I-A. It doesn't take much to be a Div I-A team, and being able to beat __ Div I-A teams doesn't speak a lot.
Need more proof? Then lets talk schedules. Lets assume 28 points is qualified as a blowout.
Tulane 38-35
Navy 17-3
Vanderbilt 30-14
Arizona 13-10
Army 27-0
South Florida 13-10
UAB 27-24
Houston 62-55
Louisville 31-28
Cincinnati 43-10 BLOWOUT
UL-Monroe 49-7 BLOWOUT
Arizona 59-13 BLOWOUT (not 3 points)
Western Illinois 35-7 BLOWOUT
Georgia 17-10 TOP 10 TEAM
Mississippi State 41-6 BLOWOUT
Florida 7-19 loss to top 25 team
South Carolina 33-7
Auburn 31-7
Louisiana Tech 49-10 BLOWOUT
Alabama 27-3
5 blowouts to 1. LSU wins.
Now, lets do a count. Georgia, Florida, Auburn, Alabama. All teams that could beat TCU, the first three doing so easily. Anyone have any evidence to prove otherwise? Nope, because TCU hasn't played anyone.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
