it seems that with the upsets this week, LSU and Alabama have seperated themselves from the rest of the top teams

and them computers still have a thing for oklahoma st

I love how Wisconsin is behind Nebraska in the BCS standings.

I'm kinda hoping the Sooners beat OK St. and the LSU/Bama game won't be very close, because I think Clemson has a good shot at beating the winner of that game in the NC.

I am obviously biased being a lifelong LSU supporter......but I just can't figure out how the computers could have this lovefest for Oklahoma St.

LSU has beaten 5 ranked teams so far this year

I wouldn't call it a good shot......have you seen their defense?

I doubt LSU has enough offense against Alabama, but as great as the LSU defense is, Alabama's is slightly better .......

they love ok state because the big 12 is rated as the best conference this year and they've been killing it thus far.

[hermes]

big 12 is rated as the best?

i thought everyone was in love with the sec?

[studcrackers]

im talkin about the computers love the big 12, the sec does have the 2 best teams but the conference as a whole i think the big 12's better

[craig01]

This is something of a re-loading year for many teams in the SEC

UF, Tenn, Auburn are very young.

Even LSU is young as they are playing 23 freshman/sophomores on their two deep roster.

Who doesn't love the BCS. Oklahoma loses at home to unranked Texas Tech and drops 6 spots, Wisconsin loses on the road to ranked Michigan State and drops 9 spots.

And isn't Wisconsin ranked behind Nebraska, whom they thrashed.

Houston trying their damndest to make some noise. Case Keenum has thrown 9 TDs tonight. No, that is not a mistype. 9 touchdowns and about a third of the game was played in a driving rainstorm.

[craig01]

Quite a night for Keenum and Houston.
