BCS Poll: #4 

Post#1 » by Da Schwab » Mon Nov 5, 2012 2:33 am

1. Alabama
2. Kansas State
3. Oregon
4. Notre Dame
5. Georgia
6. Florida
7. LSU
8. South Carolina
9. Louisville
10. FSU

Five SEC teams in the top eight, even after LSU loses to Alabama. Oregon leap frogs Notre Dame after the Domers struggle against Pitt (happy now?). Louisville moves up a spot, but I get the idea that even a two loss LSU team, or any two loss SEC team for that matter, would end up in the national championship over Louisville.

Some decent games to look forward to this week:

Texas A&M vs. Bama
K-State vs. TCU
Mississippi St. vs. LSU
FSU vs. VaTech (on Thursday night)
Oregon St. vs. Stanford

The odds of a 2 loss team making the championship game are so infintesimally small that it's not worth mentioning.

Also I already stated before an ironclad prediction that there will be 2 undefeated teams in the finals, and furthermore that Oregon will be in the finals if they don't lose a game. I'm still looking good for both of those claims. :)

And Florida is now the top 1 loss emergency team, it was LSU since LSU had to beat Alabama to remain as a 1 loss team, but now that they have 2 losses that puts Florida in that spot.

There could be 4 unbeatens (unlikely)

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

In which case it will be Alabama and Oregon, no doubt about it.

Except the fact that K-State and Notre Dame have stronger schedules.

That fact has nothing to do with my claim. SOS doesn't determine who moves forward, it is based on BCS points and the voters will all take Oregon over Notre Dame, plus the computers will give a lot more points based on SOS after the remaining games are played. Your fact is completely irrelevant and won't impact it. If you think it will then how about we agree now to bet $1,000 that if both teams are undefeated in the end that Oregon is ahead of Notre Dame?

And for K State the SOS is nearly identical right now, and it's not even close between Oregon and K State at the end of the season. So that's just flat out not true for them. So half of your fact is irrelevant, and half is false.

Oregon's best win is going to be against Oregon st at which point K-state and Notre Dame is gonna end up beating 5 ranked teams assuming they all go unbeaten. Oregon is a cute team with flashy attire but based on resumes, don't see how Oregon makes it. should've scheduled a harder ooc or at least a team from AQ conference but don't blame them after how they got handled last couple years by Boise and LSU.
