you guys are all way over thinking this stuff. if we win out, we'll be playing in the championship game. nothing else matters.

So if Alabama, KSU, and Notre Dame all win out, who will KSU play in the NC game?

that isn't going to happen so it doesn't matter.

Yes. The chances of that happening are about the same as getting attacked by a polar bear and a regular bear on the same day.

What about an albino regular bear and regular regular bear?

MAC plays some good football, probably wouldn't like the association with the big 10

Our computer average of the middle 4/6 computer polls, the 4 used in the BCS, is 3rd.

Remember when we would be undefeated but ranked behind teams with losses?

Yeah, I don't remember either.  But I bet it sucked.   :thumbs:

This.

In the 1990's it would have been unimaginable to be ranked ahead of undefeated Ohio State, Florida, and Notre Dame halfway through the season.  Jesus Christ  :runaway: :runaway: :runaway:

For argument sake using the current BCS rankings, if Oregon runs the table they would have wins over (8)Oregon State (20)Stanford (10)USC twice. If the cats run the table they would have wins over (9)Oklahoma (13)West Virginia (17)Texas Tech (23)TCU (24)Iowa State (25)Texas. Hard to imagine the cats not jumping them, right?

It depends on where all of those teams are ranked at the end of the year. Also, Oregon was ranked ahead of us in the preseason polls, so they have that going for them.

So for the computer average, it assigns a rank to your average and that is what is figured in?

I mean our computer average is 3, but because Bama's average is slightly less than 3, we get a four?

Tell me that our actual average of the computer rankings is what goes in and not our averages rank.

We are 1/100th of a point behind them right now.

With a win over WVU we will jump them. Keep winning and we hold onto it.

Keep in mind they throw out the highest and lowest computer rank.

So if we beat WVU and Florida loses (very possible) then we'll be number two next week?

You throw out the highest and lowest computer rankings so you are left with 4 rankings. For each of those 4 you get "points" based on your rank. You get 25 points for 1st, 24 points for 2nd, down to 1 point for 25th.  You sum your points and divide by 100 to get you computer score.  Our computer rankings were 1,2,3,3,4,5. Using the middle four we got 92 points for a computer score of .92.  This is the fourth highest computer value. For some reason ESPN is going by that and saying our computer "average" is four, when really our computer average is 3 for the fourth highest.

Also, your Harris poll score is calculated by how many voters points you have divided by 2,875 and your coaches poll score is calculated by how many voter points you have divided by 1,475. These are each the max points in each poll.
