OSU 3, USC 2, Ohklahoma 1.

OSU might have a good chance of catching USC because of their strength of schedule. Purdue, Michigan. both teams are very good. USC has no one left that is tough on their schedule. now if OSU gets some decisive victories of purude and michigan, and the voting polls rank them higher, OSU may overtake USC.

MIKE

but wat i think is style of victory matters

OSU hasnt destroyed ne opponent hell they beat PSU by 1 point

USC has destroyed all their opponents, altho their strength of schedule is less stronger than OSU

it shud be interesting

but its a lot easier now for the BCS now that Vatech, Miami and FSU have lost
 
Do USC fans really want to be #2?
Do OSU fans really want to be #2?

#2 gets butt handed to them by the Sooners.

Makes you almost want that #3 spot.

No way.
Although OU with 1 loses they still playing in Sugar Bowl 🙂

No they wouldn't, losing late in season is bad and their schedule isn't that good.
Oh really? From what I read it was the 18th toughest in the nation. Also read that even with a loss they would still be ranked #1 by a good margin in the BCS.

 
The only way OU could drop from #1 is if they get deystroyed by a sh!tty team or they lose twice. Them losing by anything less than 30 points will not affect them at all.

And I don't remember anybody saying last year that Miami would lose to OSU.

I agree. I just don't believe that there is anyone left that can challenge OU this season. Every team that I thought had potential has choked in games against seemingly inferior opponents.

I don't think USC is going to put up much of a challenge for OU, but then I've already put my foot in my mouth about a dozen times this season.

Oh well. 🙂

OSU wants to be #2 and we'll go to the Sugar Bowl again as a huge underdog, and then win the National Championship again.

I'm of the opinion that OU vs. OSU would be a better game than OU vs. USC. That doesn't mean it's going to happen, though. I don't think OSU is going to be going to the Sugar Bowl unless USC just blows it completely. Given the way this season has gone for all the top ranked teams, it's not completely inconceivable...
 
OU doesn't have very good teams left on the schedule. If they lose, they will definetly drop in the polls. Very likely, they would still be first in the computers, though. I would expect that they would be second, but probably not first.

damn u

go Georgia

ND lost, next up Hawaii. If Hawaii loses, LSU is the probable #2(if they win). As they should win 6 of the computers, and beat USC on SoS and Quality win

Notre Dame lost to SYRACUSE?? Omfg, USC does NOT deserve to be second.

what's weird is LSU beating UGA again doesn't help them anywhere NEAR as much as it hurts them to lose to UGA, that's just plain stupid. a loss is a loss but a win is NOT a win because they've beat them before.

well, GO UGA and GO Oregon State. WOOOT.

that would be awesome with like 5 2 loss teams contending for #2.

I'm still pissed at how we once again fvcked it all up...even with 2 losses, Michigan's ranked 4th. Amazing, but pathetic if you think about our losses....bah.
