"there are TONS of factors that could explain how arkansas got killed by USC but then beat Auburn aside from "USC is better than Auburn"."

Okay, but USC and Auburn are not going to play each other this year. And so what else based on what was done on the field can be used other than one fan's opinion that the SEC is better than the Pac-10 cause that person says so? Show me why 11-1 in the SEC is better than USC at 11-1. I listed my argument.

its not "one fan's" opinion... anyone that knows jack shit about college football will tell you that the SEC is harder than the fucking Pac-10. There is no debate. If you dont agree with that you are either:

1. dumb as hell
or
2. just trying to be difficult

10/15/2006 5:33:33 PM

games are played on the field, not on paper

enough with the fucking if-then statements

you're starting to sound like the cavemen that designed the BCS

Whatever. USC at 11-1 is better than Auburn at 11-1, my opinion. And it's not gonna matter anyway cause Auburn will lose again.

I'd love to see conference vs. conference showdowns in football. Never happen though. You gotta get in those must have games with Jackson State and Louisiana-Lafayette.

10/15/2006 5:44:20 PM

using your logic...


Auburn beat Washington State by 26
USC beat Washington State by 6


Auburn MUST be better

"Ohio State/Michigan Louisville/WV USC/ND"

Louisville can go undefeated and they won't play for the NC. If Auburn can run through the SEC undefeated and not play for it, Lousville isn't going to.

" as I stated above, A beat B beat C etc is bullshit, e.g C.Michigan is better than Clemson????"

This is a false statement. This actually carries alot of weight in college football. This is a sound claim when it comes to college sports. I could see if this were the nfl where parity is unpredictable.

10/15/2006 6:17:18 PM

aha, id love it if clemson still had a shot, but that would require a lot of shit to happen.

I think this all proves that a 4, 6, or 8 team playoff is needed. The idea that OSU/Mich, USC, WV/Louis/Rutgers, and Boise State could go undefeated and two of them not play for a national championship is just ludicrous.

I'm pretty sure Arkansas was without their 2 best defensive players for that game due to suspension. Just an fyi

and Mustain wasnt starting

ok, so NC State beat BC, BC beat Clemson, so therefore NC State is better than Clemson. Football isn't transitive.

10/15/2006 7:20:45 PM

^no fucktard, if you red what i said you woulda known that it only works if team a and c have the same # of losses

do ncstate and clemson have the same # of losses?-no

so shut the hell up

BCS Computer Rankings
Rank School W-L BCS
1 Ohio State 9-0 0.986
2 Michigan 9-0 0.973
3 West Virginia 7-0 0.786
4 Florida 7-1 0.785
5 Auburn 8-1 0.758
6 Texas 8-1 0.755
7 Louisville 7-0 0.751

There is the Top 7 projected. Includes all with a CHANCE at the Nat'l Champ game still.

A few observations.

- Florida has reached it's peak in terms of computer rankings. Their schedule will only get easier, including playing the 205th ranked, 1-AA Western Carolina, which will make their SOS/computer ranking take a huge hit.
- The loser of WVU/UL will be out of the picture. The winner will likely get a huge boost and be over .800 thanks the computer bump.
- There is still a SMALL chance that the loser of tOSU/UM stays in the nat'l champ game. That is contingent on UL beating WVU Thursday and Auburn losing one more game..

V yeah, but that won't matter much of there is still two undef teams ahead of them. Their SOS is gonna take a HUGE hit with FSU, Western Carolina, and Vandy still on their schedule. Auburn is the only 1 loss team with a legitimate chance at hopping WVU if they run the table based on the pay site I got it from (no I didn't pay but I know someone who did).

^Florida will still have a chance to beat a ranked team in the SEC championship game.

10/29/2006 11:28:35 AM

This is all based on projections, remember. If one upset happens b/t Ohio St, Michigan, WVU, Florida, or Auburn all this shit gets thrown out the window...

Remaining schedules for the Top 7:

Ohio State: Illinois, NW, Michigan (13-14 combined record)
Michigan: Ball St, Indiana, Ohio State (17-10)
WVU: UL, Cincy, Pitt, USF, Rutgers (30-9)
UF: Vandy, USC, 1-AA WCU, FSU, SEC Champ (13-12 vs 1-A opp + 1-AA game)
Auburn: Ark St, UGa, Bama, SEC Champ -- w/ an Ark loss (17-9)
Texas: Ok State, KSU, A&M, Big 12 Champ (18-8)
UL: WVU, Rutgers, USF, Pitt, UConn (28-9)

this is the scenario i'm hoping for

10/29/2006 11:55:27 AM

agreed

id love to see OSU and UM play 2 this year

10/29/2006 12:57:55 PM

A lot of that will depend on what kind of game is played. If one team gets blown out (which I don't see happening) then the humans will drop them farther. If it's close they'd probably only drop down to 3 or 4 and would stay ahead of most 1 loss teams and even possibly an undefeated Big East team..

Frankly, I'd rather not see a rematch. I just don't like that and I hated it when FSU/UF played too. That's not to say that it wouldn't be deserved though..
