Texas, Nebraska and Oregon given their one loss and relative ease of schedule, don't belong in the top five.

Oh, I get it. A Volunteer fan. You get to prove your worth on the field this Saturday. If you win, you're probably in. If not, shut up.

Uh...since Nebraska has the BEST strength-of-schedule of the Top 5, you wouldn't be biased against them would you?

You forgot one loss Florida. It's SOS is worse than Nebraska and only marginally beter than Oregon, so they don't belong in the top 5 either. ( NU = 17, Fla = 22, Ore =25 )

This must be your top 5...

1. Miami
2. BYU
3. Tenn
4. blank
5. blank

Given that Texas and Nebraska are members of the Big 12, it's no surprise that they have a loss recorded! Relative ease of schedule my foot. If only Miami had it so easy, they wouldn't even be in the top 10. The Big 12 is probably the toughest football conference by far! Four members in the top ten, and 2-3 others in and out of the top 25 all year. Give me a break!

The BCS computers do consider strength of schedule, of course.

Part of the problem in the Big 12 is that the conference teams are pretty good at beating each other up. (Texas lost to Oklahoma, which lost to Nebraska, which lost to Colorado, which lost to Texas.)

at least Nebraska beat OU. Texas couldn't do that.

BOOMER SOONER!

The Big 12 is the toughest football conference in the nation. While I think Miami is a great team, and historically a great team, I think they play pushovers who would always inhabit the cellar of the Big 12, Big 10, PAC 10 or SEC.

If they had to suffer the physical abuse week in an week out of these conferences, they'd be more believable.

In summary, east coast leagues are weak. I don't understand it, but it's true.

Oregon relative SOS, are you crazy?? The pac is the toughest conference in the country. The east coast bias is alive and well in the BS C. As long as there is a BCS there will never be a pac10 team in the NC.
