Keep us college football junkies happy until the official BCS rankings come out this weekend. The Smurfs get the top ranking on their 2nd highest computer ranking which should start to plummet. The number 1 team in the computer polls, THE Ohio State University, still being hurt by poor computer ranking. The Spartans jumped into the top 10 with their win over the Wolverines. The other non-trade marked USC is at 11.Mizzou jumped from 21 to 14.Arizona fell out of the top 10 to 19. The Gators fell out of the Top 20.

I sometimes wonder about those computers. They have Ohio St. and Nebraska at 5 and 6 when I think a fairly good case can be made that they are the top 2 teams in the country.

HELP!! I couldn’t find the University of Miami in either of the major polls this morning?! They were ranked 13th in the nation last week. Then they played FSU this weekend, and now they’re completely gone - nowhere to be found in the top 25?

What the heck happened!?

:)

Heard this on ESPN this morning. From Brad’s lap top to god’s ears.

Of course they also think Boise will drop in subsequent weeks even while winning, due to the weaker schedule attributes used in the calculations.

Placing BSU number one only indicates that the simulation involved mind altering drugs of some sort. By the end of the season both Oregon State and Virginia Tech will be at least three loss teams. How could BSU be anywhere near one when their toughest opponents each have two losses already?

The Broncos are sitting in the corner bakery eating cupcakes the rest of this season. Their schedule alone dictates that they do not belong in this discussion.

Ohio State and the B10 are overrated. This is the time of year when I just start dreading the B10 going to the BCS championship game only to get a beatdown at the hands of the SEC.
