FYI..really good article on the BCS poll by Pat Forde at YahooSports. ( there's a link at RealClearSports)

It's all good fun now, because the teams will end up playing each other for the most part.

His key point is that the computers LOVE strength of schedule ( which explains why Gators are #2) whereas most voters don't give it that much credence.

Kirk Herbstreet, on BCS show on ESPN ( and you can watch it online) agrees, says most voters can't tell he difference between Beavers and Ducks..they just hear "Oregon.."

Biggest question after this week..will Mack Brown last the season at Texas...wonder how the Longhorn Network ratings are doing? LOL

We’ll see how good the Gators are this week, South Carolina is going to be one mad football team, but Driskel keeps impressing with his big plays. If they survive the next two weeks, they’ll certainly be in the hunt.
