one other thing - I think most most have not realized that LSU will likely remain the computer #1 after this week... whether or not they beat arkansas

It actually seems possible for arkansas to beat LSU this week and fall to #4 in the BCS standings

Sounds ridiculous? Yes, but with bama beating auburn, psu beating wiscy, ok state beating ou, texas beating A&M, clemson beating south carolina, oregon beating oregon state, and wvu beating pitt I think it would be near certain

Show me the 17 retards (your example) that would give LSU a #1 vote after losing to Arkansas at home.
They can't cause it's not gonna happen. Call me stupid, call me a homer, I don't care. I mean no disrespect to the Arky fans here, but Bama is/was WAY more respected on Nov 5 than Arky is right now, yet we didn't receive a single #1 vote. Not one. I guess the LSU argument is that the voters will see what they did 3 weeks ago and it'll matter, which I guess has some merit, but the reality is it'll be a 3 way tie for #1. Arky just won, Bama lost 3 weeks ago and just spanked AU (Hopefully) and LSU will have just lost "AT HOME!!!" LSU, if you lose now you're out. Yes it sucks and is unfair but that is the way college football is set up now.

Do you want to know why? B/c we were comparing 2 teams, one of them was undefeated, one of them had 1 loss to the undefeated team.

If Arky beat us, we'd be comparing 3 teams with 1 loss, all to each other.

Do you see the difference yet?

again in the example i listed it was

bama - 30 points
arkansas - 20 points
lsu - 17 points.

I may have said votes instead of points and im sure that confused the hell out of yall. for that im sorry.

LSU does not need #1 votes to pass arkansas. they just dont. they just have to be close enough in overall points to have their computer pass up arkansas.

Choctaw is officially not allowed to call Arkansas fans dumb anymore. He obviously has a lot of work to do within his own fan base.

Ark won't fall to 4 since OSU is off this week. A win @#1 LSU will likely keep them solidly above OSU with human poll votes as well, if we move on to the next week in this hypothetical.

I dont see Oklahoma State's computer scoring improving anymore this week being on a bye. Not enough to overtake Arkansas after an LSU win.

Our computer score would also go up by beating the #1 team. We would receive #1 and #2 votes in the polls.

There is no way we would get jumped.

I thought LSU fans were BCS geniuses?

you are right

I thought Ok State/OU was this week and that result has to happen to bump Ok State up further in both the human opinion polls and computers

only three of the games you mentioned would help ok state jump ark- thats texas/a&m, clemson/scar and ok state/ou.

you really think thats gonna hurt ark's schedule more than ark win over lsu will help? dude just admit that is completely ridiculous
