They have beat UGA ...lets be honest that is not exactly a signature win the grand scheme of things....now beating LSu at home would be....but not entirely unexpected....Bama remains the defending champs and has had an unparalleled run...until someone actually knocks Bama off their perch, they willl stay number one....

No way, no how. The polls aren't going to drop bama for winning every game and looking as good as they do, simply because another team is winning. In a perfect world, the polls would start from scratch every single week, but they don't. They take last week's and adjust accordingly, and with that in mind there is simply no way bama will drop from #1 unless they lose a game.

IF USCe wins...

1) Alabama
2) South Carolina
3) Oregon
4) Notre Dame
5) West Virgina
6) Florida
7) Kansas State
8) USCw
9) Florida State
10) Texas

Have a funny feeling the media will be all over Notre Dame if they blow out Stanford with Gameday there...

They'll push ND up in the polls IMO. Can see them passing UF, WVU, and KState.

I see what you are saying but regarding first BCS poll, assuming SCar and UA wins (Oregon is idle), the human polls will have a huge gap between Tide and the rest. The only way I see this not happening is if UA struggles and barely beats Mizzou and SCar romps with 35-40 points over a good Tiger D in BR.

Didn't Brad Edwards predict this on Sunday?

Would be hilarious...



edit - I think it was Bama, SC, Oregon, UF actually. He said computers loved UF fwiw.

No matter what the computers say, Alabama is #1 in the Harris and #1 in the Coaches poll. It would literally take them having a computer average of 10+ to move them out of the #1 spot.

BCS STANDINGS ARE COMING. SO IS THE OUTRAGE.

On Sunday, America's least-popular sports entity this side of the NFL replacement refs makes its triumphant return. The first Bowl Championship Series standings will be released. The coast-to-coast complaining will follow immediately thereafter, because there is widespread divergence between the voters and the computers.

Despite the overwhelming belief among human voters that Alabama is the best team in America and Oregon is No. 2, the computers aren't buying it. At least not yet. The Dash looked at five of the six rankings that are used by the BCS – Wolfe doesn't release its first public rankings until Sunday – and four different teams are ranked No. 1: Alabama (Sagarin), Florida (Anderson & Hester), Oregon (Billingsley) and Notre Dame (Colley and Massey).

That's right, Notre Dame is first in more computer formulas than Alabama. Don't tell Harvey Updyke or he's liable to graffiti the Golden Dome. And Oregon is only ranked higher than sixth by Billingsley.

A lot can change this weekend, but as of right now the computers rank the top five this way (throwing out the high and low ratings for each team, per the BCS formula):

Florida (1). Difference from the USA Today coaches poll: plus-five spots. The microchips are impressed by the four Southeastern Conference victories – well, at least by three of them. Beating Kentucky probably doesn't do much for the strength of schedule.

Notre Dame (2). Difference from the USA Today coaches poll: plus-five spots. The Fighting Irish benefit from having played four major-conference opponents – if indeed the Big Ten counts as a major conference in 2012. And they could conceivably move up to the computer top spot with a victory over highly ranked Stanford on Saturday.

(3) Steve Spurrier's Gamecocks head to LSU this week. (Getty Images)South Carolina (3). Difference from the USA Today coaches poll: none. The Gamecocks could leapfrog the Irish and the Gators with a computer-pleasing victory at LSU on Saturday.

West Virginia (4). Difference from the USA Today coaches poll: none. Beating Texas on the road was a big boost.

Alabama (5). Difference from the USA Today coaches poll: minus-four spots. The two big September games turned out to be blowouts of disappointing teams – Michigan and Arkansas – and the rest of the schedule has been easy.

Really is kind of sad to see the level some LSU fans have been reduced to this season now that they're a mid-tier SEC program again. I guess I knew there would be some of this when we restored order back in January, but honestly, this MemRee guy? Just makes me kind of sad. I guess it's a good thing most of his other threads crying about Bama (there've been a lot, like a lot) have all been whacked over the past month or so, but I'm still worried about him rofl.
