Coach's votes released

One of the first things that jumps out at you is that Alabama coach Nick Saban voted Oklahoma State No. 4. Saban had LSU No. 1, Alabama No. 2, Stanford No. 3 and Oklahoma State No. 4.

Saban was the only one of the six SEC coaches on the panel who didn’t vote Oklahoma State No. 3.

Alabama nudged out Oklahoma State by decimal points for the No. 2 spot in the final BCS standings and a berth in the BCS National Championship Game.

The other five SEC coaches on the panel -- Auburn’s Gene Chizik, Vanderbilt’s James Franklin, LSU’s Les Miles, Georgia’s Mark Richt and South Carolina’s Steve Spurrier -- all had identical top 4s: 1. LSU, 2. Alabama, 3. Oklahoma State, 4. Stanford.
