this one is an instant cheer me up... hopefully it'll make you guys perk up a bit too

look at the BCS right now... with Texas losing a bunch of us were probably thinking, "Shit, now that school with illegal players that has cliamed three national titles in the last six years despite winning the same ammount we have in the last 20 years... ONE!! is in great position to get back to the title game."

well not so fast!!!... OU is ahead of SC and OU prob. won't fall just b/c SC beat a horrible Pac 10team for the fifth straight week, Texas beat OU so obviously they can't fall under them, and now Texas Tech HAS to jump some teams and in my mind could easily be number two in the country... and what about Florida after turning UGA into just UGH??? I see them ahead of SC too but who knows there...

My point is USC may fall two or three spots tonight all but making it impossible for Poodle's illagitamite step children to make the title game now... of course you never know with the polls and computers but something along those lines should happen tonight... God I love the BCS....

hope that helps you all as much as it helps me, I am a grinning bastard right now

Penn St. should be at least #2. An argument could be made for Texas Tech at #1 or #2. Alabama has an argument for #1 or #2. Other than that I dont think OU or USC belong up there right now. Texas had a tough schedule and lost on maybe the play of the year. Still alot of football left to play. Could be interesting. Bama vs Penn St. NC?

I could care less who is in it as long as USc first and Florida second are watching it on TV... knowing full well what goes on in recruiting makes me want to gag when those teams play for hardware

A Big 10 v Big 12 NC game would make SEC heads explode all over the south, that would make me smile.

Alabama has struggled a couple of times this year. LSU is not a done deal for them.

Honestly I'll be STUNNED is Bama runs the table and makes the title game... if there is one team I fully expect to stumble in the top ten from here on out it's Bama... that's why I thought at first UT losing helped SC... Bama and UT gone... SC is in... yet I doubt that's how it'll play out now that I think about it.....

Maybe Auburn will pull out the pride and Bama will be over confident in the Iron Bowl.

Louisiana Monroe. I was at that game. Do you know what 80,000+ look like while watching a trainwreck:)

True Alabama has not looked good against mid level teams. They blow out the good ones though. I think if they win out that they should be in the NC though. Other than that, hell I am not even sure if Penn St. belongs if they run the table. But how can you refuse a matchup of unbeatens?

One good thing about this year and living in Big Orange country is that they are horrible and I dont have to listen to UT fan. They now want to get rid of a coach with one of the top career winning percentages. Why would a current coach not be capable of rebuilding a team just like a new coach? Especially if he has had success in the past? (Joe Paterno). Ok tired of ranting about the demise of the long tenured coach. Fans of teams with winning records and bowl wins sometimes focus on the losses too much. They dont appreciate the success. I bet someone in Texas is hollering for Mack Brown's head right now. He only wins dang near all the time. Recruits like 14 five star prospects a year. Maybe we can,,,,, oh nevermind.

1. Bama
2. TT
3. PSU
4. Tex
5. OU
6. Fl
7. USC

TT now has to play OU and Ok St. If they win out they are in over PSU and Bama will be in if they win out as well. As long as USC doesn't make it. Of course they will have the home field inthe Rose Bowl against PSU.

USC has Cal, UCLA & ND all at home, Stanford on the road. These games should not impress anybody. ND losses at this point hurt USC. They played one ranked team at home. Utah has a tougher schedule.

I agree if Bama goes unbeaten they should be in... I just don't see them winning out AND winning the the SEC title game (florida most likely right??)

Yes at this point Florida looks like the team to beat in the SEC. But, in the SEC anything can happen.

AP Poll is out... looks like I was on to something... Florida, UT, OU, all sit ahead of USC... and Texas Tech did jump Penn State...

we shall see later what happens with the only poll that matters.... unless of course you are Mike Garett and only follow the poll that has your team the highest..... ;)
