FIRST off, LSU is over-rated...

My team is more overrated than yours. So there. I have something to brag about now.

Both of your teams are better than Ball State, Tulsa or FSU this year.
I don't think they are that over rated.

Hey Prather! Who do you think you are you to interrupt our pity party going on here? Now go on, get out of here and enjoy your team's undefeated season and leave us alone to drown in our sorrows, OK? We're trying to commiserate in peace!

Dude , yes we are...LSU has two defensive coordinators, two quarterbacks.............and we cant find a defense or stop staring down WR's \ I mean honestly there are 30000 people enrolled at LSU, are you telling me none of them can cover a WR??? My high school team could at least make it look like we are trying to keep up..it is ridiculous And Jarrett Lee does everything short of put up a sign sayin "I am throwing this pass to Brandon LaDrop uhhhhh Lafell"

Wow. Boise State is pretty much a lock for going undefeated this year. They have ZERO difficult games left on their schedule. at New Mexico State Utah State at Idaho at Nevada Fresno State
Nevada is probably the best of these. No one on their schedule is ranked, and probably none of them will be. Oregon has an outside shot, but that's all. Let's hope that they don't make it into the BCS with that slate.
Edit: Oregon is now ranked. Let's see if they stay there.

I'd give Boise State odds about the same as Penn State and USC. I agree that Nevada is the best team they have left. Fresno State is disappointing this year, again.

I think after watching Texas Tech yesterday, they need to be #4.

I agree. Especially since they're still undefeated. OU has no business being ranked ahead of them. Especially with the amount of yards that the Oklahoma defense has given up this season...
BOOMER!

Undefeated Teams Remaining: - Texas - Texas Tech - Penn State - Alabama
- Ball State - Utah - Tulsa (as of now) - Boise State
One-Loss Teams: - Florida State - Oklahoma - Oklahoma State - Minnesota - Southern Cal - Georgia - Florida
- Texas Christian - Brigham Young
One of these teams will win the National Championship. Or I will be positively livid.

I know a couple people are wondering, so... the answer is NO, the BCS Rankings will not be released today because #17 Tulsa is playing tonight.

WRONG!
They are out tonight, the Tulsa game will not be reflected until next weeks poll.

I'm a huge SEC fan but Alabama rolled over Tennessee, easy game. Rankings supposed to be based on strength of schedule, etc. Tennessee has got squat this year. Penn State on the other hand should be number two, possibly number one. Go Razorbacks.

Penn State shouldn't jump Alabama just because Tennessee is having a down year. If you are saying that PSU should be ranked higher than Alabama because Alabama beat a team with only 3 wins, that is ridiculous. The ONLY team that Penn State has beaten this year that is currently ranked is Ohio State. How about THAT SOS? Yes, I know that the only team Alabama has beaten that is currently ranked is Georgia. But while Ohio State doesn't have a win against a strong team, Georgia is currently playing their best ball, and can become an even stronger asset to Bama's SOS with a win over Florida this weekend. Bottom line, if Bama happens to win out, PSU should not - and will not - jump them.

I agree BB.....Lets let the rankings stay where they are until these teams prove otherwise. UGA is obviously better than tOSU.
This could all change Nov 8th in Baton Rouge (now LSU has nothing to lose) but the game is at 230 so Bama might score 80 on the poor tigers

Haha. I have to say, I was a little happy when I saw CBS picked up the game. Nah..Bama won't score 50. Partly due to the fact that our clock-eating rush attack shortens the game, and partly due to the fact that you better believe ol' Miles won't let another team put up that many against LSU.
I'm looking forward to the game though, as I will be on hand to witness whatever the outcome may be. Hopefully I'll be celebrating an SEC West Title when the clock hits triple zero. ;)

Nothing has infuriated me since the UGA game in 2004-Saban's last season in TigerTown-than this year so far...
I don't mind 9-3...I don't mind 'Bama back in the thick of it...
What I mind is how we're losing to top flight competition...
Completely getting owned...

x 2 TE.
And another day game coming? That sux. Why the hell do they agree to play these damn day games? Our record during the day is no where near as good as it is at night.
Is it for the publicity of being on the national stage? That's all well and good if your team doesn't get 50 hung on them. Otherwise, it's negative publicity. Is it the money? What gives?

TE:
Well, you've lost your defensive coordinator. You've lost a senior QB - while trying to replace him with a RS freshmen. That is a real problem. The good news is that he will mature faster. You've lost the most dominate defensive lineman in the game (Glen Dorsey), a great RB in Hester, and a fantastic WR in Earley Doucet. And, I can't think of the rest.
But, losing the DC and Ryan Perrilloux, just looks like too much to overcome right now. Those are two real tough loses.

Haha...well Bama could lose to LSU..and then to Auburn!!!!! But in all honesty, i dont think Nick Saban could coach the Patriots to a victory in Baton ROuge, but he may prove me wrong

I don't get how OSU is ranked as high as they are.
