The big question to me is whether Alabama will win any of its 3 remaining games, given its truly pathetic offense.

Looks like the BCS is going to escape this year...
The BCS "escapes" almost every year. Having three undefeated teams remain by the end of the season is exceedingly rare.KH FOR OWNER!

Quite a season for Nebraska, eh Drake, losing to both MU and KU.
When was the last KU victory, 68?

Yep, 1968. Pretty good run, although not as good as Notre Dame's versus Navy.KH FOR OWNER!

UCLA comes from behind to win in the last half of the 4th quarter or maybe overtime.
...I mean, they've done it four games in a row now.

Once again, the last two spots are truly up for grabs from any number of one and two loss teams, and a certain three-loss team has a shot if they win out."My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

VaTech is getting way overrated by you guys. They got beaten horribly. It really shows how week the ACC is."Yay Apoc!!!!!!!" - bipolarbear

You know that they got beaten BY an ACC team, right?Originally posted by Apocalypse
VaTech is getting way overrated by you guys. They got beaten horribly. It really shows how week the ACC is. And while others thought Miami was overrated, I've had them in my Top 10 since the beginning of this poll.
I mean, sure, the SEC is the best conference in college football, but the ACC has a claim to being in the next three with the Big 10 and Pac 10.
And VTech is a good team (look at the rest of their games). They just couldn't figure out Miami's defense.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Rather, Sagarin has them as the 5th best conference. I'm inclined to agree with his algorithm. The SEC has a decided lack of offense.I mean, sure, the SEC is the best conference in college football
You guys are crazy for including in your top 5 a team that has scored one offensive touchdown in the last 3 games. Absolutely bonkers.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

I also note that Sagarin's ELO-CHESS system (what is reported to the BCS) moved ND from 19 to 14 this week. Once again this furthers my contention that the ELO-CHESS and Predictor rankings will converge as the season finishes up and that ND won't be treated too poorly by the BCS rankings.

Which is absolutely foolish, IMO. This is a conference with 5 teams in the Top 15 in the AP poll. And the SEC is known for its defense. After all, neither LSU two years ago nor Auburn a year back was considered an offensive juggernaut like USC and Texas this year.
You guys are crazy for including in your top 5 a team that has scored one offensive touchdown in the last 3 games.
And what about their defense?

Let's put it this way. Notre Dame scored 27 offensive points at home against a team that held Alabama to 6 offensive points at home only 2 weeks before.
It is my view that the SEC's defenses are not in the same league as some of the Big Ten's defenses.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

True, but that was 'Bama's first game without their playmaker (Prothro), IIRC.
They'll figure it out as they go throughout the year. Though I'm not sure they beat Auburn or a Shockey led Georgia squad (which would have beaten Florida).“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another.

Time's running out for them to do this. Two weeks later, Alabama couldn't score an offensive touchdown against a 2-7 Mississippi State team. Sooner or later, Alabama's going to drop 2 or 4 in a row...I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.
