Week 2 - BCS Projections

[yler4cy]

I thought it would be fun to see everyone's thoughts on what they feel will be the rankings in the BCS this Tuesday. Let's just do the top 10, and you can add others receiving votes if you want.

Here are last weeks rankings:

Here are the AP Rankings after this weekend:

My thoughts:
1. Clemson
2. Bama
3. Ohio St.
4. ND
5. LSU
6. Baylor
7. Okie ST.
8. Iowa
9. Stanford
10. OU

Others: Florida, Utah, TCU and MSU

I know you mean college football playoff committee rankings. The BCS doesn't exist anymore though.

i think LSU drops below Iowa, otherwise about right.

I'm not sure which I am more annoyed with... those that keep calling it the BCS or those that insist on reminding everyone that it isn't the BCS anymore. It is like those correcting people who use IA and IAA...

My apologies for sharing information with someone that was mistaken

1 Clemson

4 ND

Most likely, but it should be:
Bama
OSU
Clemson
OSU

Funny how the world has thrown MSU to the wolves. If that games is called correctly, they'd be in the mix still.

I still want to know what Ohio State has done to earn a spot. Iowa's resume is MUCH better than Ohio State's at this point.

You mean aside from winning like 28 straight games or something ridiculous like that.

 

[Beyerball]

I think Ohio state has lost like 3 games in the last 3 years. Could be (2) games too idk. But it's unheard of.

 

[Cyclonepride]

The reigning national champs argument is a pretty big one.

 

[AmesHawk]

I have a friend at ESPN that told me it would be #1 Clemson, #2 Iowa.

Don't shoot the messenger.

Unfortunately that is supposed to mean nothing in the committee's eyes.

Look at Ohio State's schedule and results. Remove your anti-Iowa blinders. And tell me how you could put Ohio State ahead of Iowa at this point in the season.

(Not that it matters because Ohio State has MSU, Michigan, and most likely Iowa coming up but the point still stands)

 

[mj4cy]

I'm not even sure why the heck there needs to be a playoff. There already is a 14 team playoff for the college football national title going on in the Southeastern part of the country.

No need to shoot, laughing is enough.

So you expect OSU to be in the title game with two difficult games to play? The committee probably does as well. And they most likely see the same outcome as last year.

Iowa's schedule was not very strong. I don't think they should even be rated this high even though they are undefeated. The wouldn't be undefeated in the Big XII, that is for sure.
