You don't think their computer average would improve with wins over Oregon State and UCLA? If they got to 2 in the polls and 4 in the computers, they could have shot depending on where Florida fell (e.g. voters put ND at 3 and keep Florida at 4).

If ND was only one spot ahead in the human polls. Fla would jump them. ND will no longer have #1 in the computers if they lose. Likely Fla would.


Not necessarily, if ND was 3 in the computers and 2 in both polls and Florida was 3 in both polls and 1 in the computers it could be very tight.

I'm just saying there are ways to keep Florida out by using a one loss Oregon, ND, and possibly Kansas State in the polls without it looking all that ridiculous (it would be pretty transparent still).

ND would probably jump them in that scenario. No way the get over Bama, Fla or ND in the computers.

It would fall on how many votes each got at the 2 and 3 position. I don't think ND would have a solid enough point avg to hold off Fla.

That's all my personal opinion, and I've admittedly been wrong a time or two before. In the end, I think it's going to end up ND/Bama. But still 2 games to go, so we'll see.
