New BCS rankings out... USC ranked #2

Pretty weak, IMO. They lost to a 5-5 team, and I believe there are other teams with the same record that have had tougher schedules.

I don't think USC would be much of a contest for them. Some other teams might give them a beating, though, IMO.

Ideally, Texas A&M would stop sucking and kill OU, but since it isn't even a home game for A&M I just think it's going to be too painful to watch. 😉

only reason they won last year is because it was a home game. i don't care what people say (pac10 fanboys), OU will remain #1 and win the title this year.
 
and kicking everyone else's @ss


i dont know if they'll get owned by sooners but it shud be fun to watch for sure

and yeh they did get beaten by cal in a close game

and they have an awsome offense


i think the problem is west cost football isnt given much attention

It was that and the fact that we had a freshman QB that was as fast as your defense and torched your secondary over the top. That being said our Defense really sucks this year so Im predicting a blowout. I hope its close but not expecting it to be.
 
Ohio State's got Purdue, Michigan State, and Michigan, the next 3 weeks, if they win out, they should move up quite a bit, althought they should already be #3 according to the less biased part of the BCS poll, the computer average.

No it's not. It's argueably one of the weakest BCS conference. There are only 2 teams in the conference ranked

Let's see USC's Marqee out of conference wins:
A way overhyped auburn team that got blown out the next week to a very average Georgia Tech team 23-0
a very crappy BYU 35-18
a fairly good WAC team, Hawaii 61-32
at a crappy Notre Dame 45-14
Opponents combined records: a whopping 18-18
Lost to a team that is 2-3 outside of conference play

Washington State
beat a 1-8 Idaho 25-0
lost to a 2-6 Notre Dame 29-26
beat a 3-6 Colorado 47-26
beat a 5-4 New Mexico 23-13
Opponents combined records: a whopping 11-24

Can you say way overhyped? I knew you could

vs Notre Dame
Washington State lost
USC won by 31
Florida State won by 37 and pitched a shutout

vs Colorado
Washington State won by 21 but gave up 26 points
SU a 40 point romp, would have laid another goose egg on them had it not been for a freak 81 yd TD pass

Florida State lost to a very good Miami team in horrible weather that was undefeated and Sugar Bowl bound up until Saturday night. They play another giant killer, Florida, the last game of the season.

USC lost to a 5-5 conference at home .Hello poll voters, Carson Palmer is not wearing red and gold anymore

How the hell are they that highly ranked?

hahahahaha
you cant be serious.
OU KILLED wash state in the rose bowl last year? remember that?
the only reason wash state was in the rose bowl was that they could *sort of* play defense.
defense in the pac 10....yeah right.

My sentiments exactly. Miami and FSU both lost to ranked teams that currently have like 8-1 records. USC lost to a 5-5 team that was never ranked as far as I know. USC schedule doesn't look as tough as some others' either.

Hopefully if FSU can beat Florida (who will be absolutely pumped at the prospect of helping to ruin FSU's season), they will be bumped up in the polls. Somehow I doubt it, though. I think unless USC blows another game they are going to go to the Sugar Bowl and get destroyed.

The less biased part, because it doesn't care that Ohio State barely beat 2-6 Penn State?

Yes, humans are biased, but they also know how to take into account factors that a computer doesn't know how to account for (when is it a bad game, and when is one team just better then the other), and factors that the computers aren't allowed to factor in (MOV).

I think it will be quite impressive if Ohio State can win out, mainly because they haven't been impressive until now.
