    You can bet your bottom dollar that "they" will do everything possible to keep an SEC out of the BCSCG this year. After last season and the embarrassment "THE" Ohio St. was you can forget about the SEC getting any recommendations this season.

    I do not know the ends and outs of the BCS formula. How does this game hurt y'all so bad when Oregon and ASU play next week and one will obviously lose?

    Because the winner of the game next week has a strong possibility to JUMP LSU if we beat you guys...

    Well Cal obviously isnt going to win this game.

    Even if Oregon beats ASU I dont think they jump LSU.

    So even though we'll be ranked within the top 25 (and possibly the top 20 with so many losing today)they could realistically jump y'all? The points between the three must not be much at all.

    If Oregon dominates ASU (which is possible, I still don't buy into ASU since Cal sucks and Tedford is the most overrated coach in college football today), then LSU would have to blow out Bama to keep its slim edge over Oregon in the human polls. I think we will maintain a lead the rest of the way in the computer polls. That isn't the issue. Human polls carry 2/3 of the weight in the BCS formula. The computer poll difference can me made up quite easily.

    Thus the reason we need a team to run the table in the East, Georgia being our best bet, since they should be ranked about 12 or so tomorrow. Tennessee should lose 1 more game, opening the door for Georgia. Will they take advantage, however?

    If Oregon somehow finds themselves #2 in the BCS over a #3 LSU going into the SEC CG, I am sure the SEC CG will do the same for LSU as it did last year for Florida (i.e., put us in the title game, and rightfully so).

    Here's the thing....Oregon and ASU just got a boost in the computers and the media's eyes....i mean look how delusional Corso is putting Oregon #1...it's not inconceivable that others will follow...and if they don't jump us tomorrow they reeally might the next week with a victory over undefeated ASU.
