Missouri isn't even ranked and they lost to an undefeated team?

Another reason why fat men who don't play shouldn't be making the decisions.....let them play the game.

Missouri has 2 losses, on consecutive weeks.  They are ranked 15th.  What do you want?

You still want to piss and moan about Notre Dame being ranked when they aren't?

[GatorBuc85]

The Gators are ranked after Ohio State!?

[BucsGuru]

How does Georgia get ranked behind USC, when USC loses to an unranked and losing record team?? 

This is why college football sucks come January.

The BCS Standings.... people still follow this crap?

[GatorBuc85]

Can we have playoffs yet?

It's a necessity to follow it, unfortunately.

Not really -- especially in October.

So, talking about the polls is irrelevant?  The rankings in October factor in to the rankings in December.

FSU is 25th, if that helps you...

25th in October.  Wow.  How exciting... and meaningless.

And what do you mean the October rankings factor into the December rankings?

[John Galt?]

The Gators are ranked after Ohio State!?

OSU lost to #5 USC, UF lost to #164 Ole Miss.

It won't matter since OSU has yet to play lose to Penn St. If UF wins out, including quality wins against UGA and SECW champ, we'll move up.

OSU isn't a concern, all those Big 12 teams and USC are.

Florida needs FSU to win their next 4 or 5 to really boost the SOS.

When do you want the rankings to come out?  Do you think they should magically appear at the end of the season?

It's halfway through the season, a good time to discuss rankings.

And what do you mean the October rankings factor into the December rankings?

Which teams will have a better chance at the title?

4. Oklahoma 6-1
5. USC 5-1

or

13. LSU 5-1
14. TCU 7-1

Why not?  At least they wouldn't be altered by the meaningless rankings from August, September and October...

What would be the problem with the first polls/standings coming out in mid-November? 

What would be the problem with ranking all of the teams when all the regular season games are over? 

Oh, that's right - it might actually be somewhat accurate.

Which teams will have a better chance at the title?

4. Oklahoma 6-1
5. USC 5-1

or

13. LSU 5-1
14. TCU 7-1

Exactly.  Thanks for pointing out YET another flaw in the BCS system -- penalizing teams because of where they ranked in August.

This is the reason Auburn got screwed out of playing USC (instead of OU) in 2004.  Keep in mind, Auburn went UNDEFEATED... in the SEC.  Who's done that recently?   And they don't get to play for the title because USC and OU didn't move from #1/#2 all year?

Great system!!
