There's a big boost having a Heisman winner on the squad.

BCS standings:

Quote1 Florida 6-0
2 Alabama 7-0
3 Texas 6-0
4 Boise State 6-0
5 Cincinnati 6-0
6 Iowa 7-0
7 USC 5-1
8 TCU 6-0
9 LSU 5-1
10 Miami (FL) 5-1
11 Oregon 5-1
12 Georgia Tech 6-1
13 Penn State 6-1
14 Virginia Tech 5-2
15 Oklahoma State 5-1
16 Brigham Young 6-1
17 Houston 5-1
18 Utah 5-1
19 Ohio State 5-2
20 Pittsburgh 6-1
21 Wisconsin 5-2
22 Arizona 4-2
23 West Virginia 5-1
24 South Carolina 5-2
25 Kansas 5-1

Nothing there I can disagree with too strongly.  I think TCU will finish ahead of Boise for the consolation BCS slot if they both win out.  Iowa is well placed to finish in the top 2 should Texas or the two SEC giants falter.

I think it's important to actually post the points values as well, as there are substantial drop offs between Alabama, Texas, and Boise State, as well as a a log jam between Cincy, Iowa and USC.

Grats to zona for making it in 25.

Stop that - you can be nice all you want, but I can never root for the Huskies again.

Unless they are playing ASU.

Oh, and I find it utterly disheartening that Michigan played Delaware State today.  Bill Martin had promised that ASU (scheduled at the last minute when Oklahoma State backed out of the game) would be the only Div-1AA team Michigan would schedule; less than two years later, he schedules DSU. 

What makes it even worse, is that apparantly to take the Michigan game, Delaware State pulled out of a scheduled conference game, so it counts as a forfeit in their conference record.  I know that 1-AA teams take these games for the $$$, but damn, forfeiting a conference game?   The Delaware State AD should be shot.

Del State's athletics program is a joke, as is the MEAC.  Might as well take the $$ & give the kids a chance to play in the Big House, both of which by far outweigh the consequences.

Anywho, WVU is ranked :punk: 

Odd that it came after a not-easy win over Marshall, but I'll take it.  And Cincinnati is #5.  As the Big East standard bearers, I hope they do well but they will plummet like a rock when they lose to either WVU, UCONN or Pitt.

I don't think that makes it worse.

Because it could not be worse.  If it could be worse, it would be.
