Around SBN: Dana White Announces Koscheck vs. Hendricks for UFC on FOX

Early look at the BCS standings as of now..


Yikes!  Here are the mock standings from Brad Edwards at ESPN if the BCS came out this week:

 

MOCK BCS STANDINGS

1. Florida
2. Alabama
3. Virginia Tech
4. Texas
5. Boise State
6. USC
7. LSU
8. Ohio State
9. Cincinnati
10. Iowa

But Brad says to relax if you're Texas.......if they win out, they'll be fine.  So Texas just needs to focus on the task at hand that is O-WHO.  The real BCS standings come out next week.......and I had forgotten how much I hate this BCS stuff.

I saw his analysis on College Gameday on Saturday

he said Texas is ranked #6 in the computers (behind Boise St. Virginia Tech, and I’m guessing USC). Nothing new for us, given our notoriously soft nonconference schedule. Just like last year though, win every game and we’re in. At least we’re #2 in both the Coaches’ Poll and the Harris Poll IIRC.

Actually

Texas and Bama are tied for 2nd in the Harris Poll.

Mocks BSC standings - NOW

The story also says if Texas runs the table, they will play in NC game.

Hey,

BCS standings, you suck. My grandma could rank teams better than you, BCS standings, and she’s been dead for 5 years. BCS standings, you’re ugly and your mama dresses you funny.

There, I mocked the BCS standings as instructed above.

Stating the blindingly obvious

“Longhorns need convincing victory over OU to sway pollsters”

Really Tim?

I hope the team aren’t as distracted by all this noise as BON’ers seem to be. There should be only one focus this week: beating OU. I’ve got to resist the urge to moan and hand wring, and concentrate on the excellent game prep posts that are on their way from our outstanding crew of authors.

Still a Blaine Irby fan

Mack

needs to stress the element of controlling our own destiny. Forget the polls. If we win every game, we’re in.

The only BCS rankings that matter are the last ones

Oh, and sometimes the second to last ones, depending on your conference tie breaking rules.

At this point they are hardly more meaningful than preseason polls.
