Go Big Red!! #17 is respectable.
BCS = GAY
How the Texas drop to 9 and USC is no where a #2 team. Maybe a #4 team at best.
Horse .9. Texas
good question, but probably b/c notre dame has had a higher strength of schedule. notre dame's is 14 and t.u.'s is 37....so i am pretty sure the computer polls have notre dame higher than t.u.
...however, if you two played each other i think it would be a very close high scoring game. neither defense would be able to stop the other. notre dame would pass all over the t.u. secondary and there is no way the irish could stop your running game. probably scoring in the 40's apiece...
And the ags???
As in any race...................It's the final standings that count.
Be patient.
Looking wayyyyyyyyyy better for UT than the ags though.![]()
I am completely dismayed with the preferrential treatment ND gets. I think it is the biggest crock in all of sport. There is a specific rule in the BCS picking that deals with ND.
Rule #4 states that ND automatically gets in if they are 8th or higher, and you know that ANY bowl is going to pick ND over a #5 Cal or #5 Michigan because of tv ratings.
For anyone ELSE not in a 'BCS Conf', you have to be in the top 12 or #1 or #2 if you are an independent.
The rules are:
#1 The top two teams in the rankings. Those teams are assigned to the le game.
#2 AQ conference champions, regardless of ranking. Exception: If the #1 and #2 teams are from the same conference and neither is the champion, then the champion of that conference will not participate in the BCS.
#3 The highest-rated champion of a non-AQ conference if it either ranks in the top 12 or is ranked in the top 16 and also ranked ahead of one of the champions of an AQ conference.
#4 Notre Dame, if it finishes in the top eight.
#5 The #3 team, if it is a member of an AQ conference and there is still an open spot.
#6 The #4 team, if it is a member of an AQ conference and there is still an open spot.
This is how screwed it is. Let's say this is our ranking, who gets in?:
1 Ohio St (B11)
2 USC (P10)
3 Mich
4 Tex (B12)
5 L'ville (BE)
6 WVa
7 Aub (SEC)
8 ND
9 Fla
10 Cal
11 Clem
12 Tenn
13 Boise St
14 Wisc
15 VaTek (ACC)
16 Ore
Automatic qualifiers are: Ohio State and USC (Rule 1) Aub, Tex, L'ville, and TaTek (Rule 2) Boise St (Rule 3) ND (Rule 4) and Mich (Rule 5). The final spot goes to whomever the bowl left without a fill wants to pick that is in the Top 12. This year, the Rose would pick last and would take Cal over WVa and Fla. No way WVa, even at BCS #6, gets picked with teams like Cal, Fla and Tenn eligible.
I am completely dismayed with the preferrential treatment ND gets. I think it is the biggest crock in all of sport. There is a specific rule in the BCS picking that deals with ND.
No . I have a problem with any team getting special treatment. Why do they think they are so much better than everyone else that they deserve it? N(ot worth a )D(amn).
They think they are Americas team. I cant stand the Irish. Im glad the Wolverines spanked that ass, after that ass whoopin they should not even be in the top ten.
If that were the final standings for The BCS game.
Better take the Bucks to clean house & win that game by double digits...Minimum 11-14 pts.
UT might as well stop playing, they're ed. Florida and Auburn way ahead of us?
The BCS is going to get SEC the nod this year, so one of those SEC teams is gonna be way high regardless. But both?
eesh
This is why aggie are so lame. They suck total monkey balls, yet their performance gets them in the top 25 but their presence in our conference is not enough to merit the big twelve. I sure hope Aggie beats OU, actually, I hope they win every game until thanksgiving. That'll give us a good boost in the polls when we dismantle their ginger offense and defense.
Even I can recognize that UT got the shaft in the first BCS rankings. Long way to go though.
If ou loses alot of their remaining games and ends the season with a very low (or no) ranking, does this affect schedule strength for UT or are those already set in stone prior ot the season
I forget how all this bull works.
It's waaaay to early to worry about BCS rankings. USC is not as good as Cal or Oregon. I realize JGW will disagree, but this fact shall soon be proven.
Tlong your patos better not puss out like last year. Those ing trojans are s . Give them a loss so they'll end up against UT in the Fiesta bowl and we can dismantle them for the second year in a row.
USC will have at least 2 losses so I would not expect them to play in as high quality bowl game as Texas will be in. Arizona State's players know the Ducks and Cal are better. Soon USC will know it too.
Yeah, the PAC-10 rules!
The teams are soooooo tough.![]()
BTW, An opinion doesn't make fact son.![]()
SC & the PAC-10 are looking weaker each week.
Okay, here's how I see it. I don't think Texas should be #6. I think OSU, Michigan, Auburn, WV, and Florida are all better teams. But Louisville? Naw. USC? Certainly not. I know Notre Dame is always overrated, but my gosh, they're nothing compared to the overratedness (is that even a word?) of USC this year. Notre Dame is probably not better than Texas, but with them being the usual media darling, and with prettyboy Brady Quinn as a Heisman candidate, of course they're going to be somewhere up there in the rankings.
That being said, I'm disgusted that USC is #2. Bull . That should be Michigan.
Bowl Crap Series. Oh well, that's what we're dealt. Should have beaten OSU at home. Nobody to blame but our secondary... and Billy Pitman
