1. I am not 100% sure, but think those "new" sagarin ratings have updated records but old elochess/bcs ratings. They look identical to last week for Ok State from what i recall. Even so, one poll would get dropped

2. The BCS Guru is just guessing. If he is right he gains legitimacy over Jerry palm and Brad Edwards. He knows it is about 50/50 and it is way too close to call to know if Ok State gets over 25% of the voters.

Agree.. Did you notice Ia St with a #2 in SOS? Maybe they don't suck that much after all..

Agree.. projection is kinda early but Va Tech out of the way helps

Calculated using what? 200 voter ballots that haven't been turned in yet?

I have followed guru and edwards all season and despite liking what edwards says as a tide fan the guru as been far more accurate. he usually posts his projections first each week before palm and edwards . Then again edwards changes his several times some weeks lol. He appears weekly on arute and leaches show on XM. Yep I agree with lsumatt it will be very close.

I believe he's saying since bcsguru (he thinks) works for ESPN, he's doing this to stem the tide (heh) of people switching votes. Kinda like predicting an outcome in an election in order to remove motivation for a supporter to go vote.

Om the reals, how much of the number 2 votes does ok state need to go to number 2? Maybe im crazy but i heard they didnt need more than bama because the computers will have them higher due to the idea that they had the stronger sos.
