    I thought Miami/Bowling Green was a MAC championship playing at a neutral site. Can you confirm they are playing at Bowling Green?

    Answer this for me guys...

    Does playing UGA again improve our SOS?

    I have heard that you can't get credit in SOS for beating the same team twice...whats the deal here??

    No you cannot get the QW twice.....in other words, if GA finishes 10th, we do not get -.10 twice, only once.

    You get credit for the SOS both times. Kind of inconsistent, LSU should get a -.20 QW credit for Georgia as well.

    Maimi is at -7 ----> Miami should win here ... but you never know

    ND is at -2.5 -----> This one is a PICK

    Boise St is at -10-> Another meaningless Hawaii game for a WAC Champ # 18 rank that has already earned an H-Bowl appearance

    Hawaii bothers me the most ... as 11-1 Boise St. has nothing to play for ... already celebrated a WAC win. Only loss 24-26 to OSU

    No, I saw Hawaii play against Bammy. They absolutely sucked to high heaven. It's just that Bammy sucked a little harder and actually swallowed.

    In projecting the computer polls, it's highly unlikely Miami OH takes over 3rd in either of those 2 polls. Therefore we should pull for Bowling Green. That way we don't have to root for what is a horrific Syracuse team. Notre Dame is bad, Syracuse is worst however.

    Just think about it, Bowling Green wins and you only need either Syracuse or Boise State win. If Miami OH wins, you MUST have Syracuse win. I just do not like the MUST have situation one bit.

    Plus Miami OH takes away ANY possibility of them finishing 10th ahead of Georgia. That situation is not a given with the AP and Coaches able to dicatate that outcome.

    I knew you couldn't get QW points twice. I just didn't know about the SOS.....Thanks!!

    I updated my thread "LSU vs. USC for #2 in the BCS"....refer to the original post in that thread for the final results. It looks somewhat better now. We longer have to have a Syracuse victory over Notre Dame. What a relief.
