Keep in mind that "solid" wins by LSU have a way of being considered after the game as easy wins over overrated teams.
If we beat Auburn, there is a good chance we will go to #2. But if we don'tnit really does not matter because I believe we will be there by season's end assuming we win the rest of our games. The only thing that really matters is where a team is at the end of the regular season.
Yesterday before the USF/Rutgers game, the announcers were stating that BC is only where they are "by default." All of them seemed to favor BC getting jumped at some point. I think we can possibly jump BC without them losing because the human polls are likely to do something like that. They were probably kicking themselves for vaulting USF into the top ten so quickly after they beat West Virginia. So, I would see them actually ranking BC more in line with who they think should be ranked highly based on who they've played and beaten.
I wonder how much of poll ranking is a generational thing. Older posters like to do it the way it's always been done. Now that the computers are getting it right more often it could wake up the pollsters to work harder at their rankings.
