Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


BCS Calculator is a "Proud" OU Graduate…

WTH! He is the lone employee of the BCS and controls all the calculations for the BCS results.  Seems like the BCS would have a checks and balance system in place so allegiances are not in play.  Seems a little fishy to me but you be the judge.  He said he quadrupled checked the calculations but I'm sure most readers of this blog are aware that OU fans or graduates can't count, e.g. 45-35. He stated that he was "sadder for the sad" for the fans in Austin and was "happy for the happy" for the fans in Norman.  See below for the link.

it's really not hard to do the calculations and it's a completely transparent process.

he just compiles all the public information (the harris poll, the coaches poll, and the computers) and does the same calculations that everyone else does. his just happen to be “official.” no possibility of foul play.

None...

Knowing how much attention was placed on this calculation and how scrupulous the BCS is I’m sure you are correct. I was really just poking fun at the situation.
