Where would Oklahoma stand in the current BCS rankings had the Oregon loss actually been a win?

They are 12th right now (11/26/2006).  I would guesstimate they would be in the 3-8 range with a win.

They did lose to Notre Dame at home. Notre Dame isnt that good. They have also lost too many games to be ranked, they have lost 9.  Beating LSU and Tennessee today was nice, but losing to South Carolina was a game they should have won. They also shouldnt lose at Temple. Temple is not that good. They have played a decent schedule, but their record should be better.

Who cares??  It isn't accurate.  The BCS is one of many reasons I no longer follow college ball.  We need a playoff!!\n\n"Throw out the computers!  Have a playoff so we KNOW who's the best in the country!"  Woody Paige, 'COLD PIZZA,' ESPN2 this morning, 11/13/06.\n\nSTILL think I'm nuts now?  Even SPORTSCASTERS hate the BCS!!

Sorry. It was already pre-ordained. The BCS is a sham. Just ask Auburn how they felt after getting shut out of the title game in 2004.

I'm a Buckeye Fan. I admit based on the closeness of the Game I do Feel UM should get another shot. That game could have went either way.  On the other Hand. I think the BCS wants teams from different conferences and that may be the deciding factor. Plus to have UM vs OSU again kind of steals the thunder away for the great rival tradition we have for one another meeting at the end of the year for the last game. What a rivalry! It has to be hard to be UM fan with Tressels record of 5-1 against UM and at the same time you have a good coach up there, but falls short when facing Tressel. We will have a hard time next year. We are losing too much.

I think they should be, but I am a Florida fan. \n\nThe only reason Florida sits at number 4 (not counting the game they gave away to Auburn) is their inability to put points on the board. However, they always score when necessary and they have made more crunchtime plays to pull off close wins angainst tough SEC competition than any other team in the nation.\n\nI will add that these unranked teams that Florida has had close games with would most likely be ranked in some of the lesser conferences. It is easy for a good team to rack up losses in the SEC (look at Georgia, LSU, Auburn, and even South Carolina). Don't Forget the SEC has 3 top 10 teams. \n\nWith all that said, although I like Urban Meyer, I think he should have made a better effort to score points.  The BCS is flawed, everyone knew it, and everone knew that Florida needed to put points on the board. Urban Meyer has options he didn't use enough, Deshawn Wynn for starters. An established power running game instead of trick wide reciever over plays,  would have added a little stability to the Florida offense. \n\nAlso, I love Tebow, but don't rotate QB's so much. Chris Leak is too often coming back into the game on 3rd and long situations. Tebow will be a great quarterback next year and is definately a great option this year on 3rd and short, but this year should be Leak's. \n\nMy answer is yes, Florida should be there (considering they win another tough game this Saturday), but they could have done things slightly differently to ensure a better chance.

Under the current BCS system, it certainly appears USC is on their way for the title. Since the season started with the BCS system, I wouldn't change it now. #1 and #2 should play to determine who the champion is.\n\nThat said, some conferences are weaker than others. The SEC is such a tough and competitive conference, nearly anyone is able to compete with a ranked team. Just look at UGA, Auburn, Arkansas, Tennessee, etc that were all ranked in the top 10 to fall to another SEC team. I personally favor a playoff system where any undefeated team and each of the conference champions enter into a win/lose bracket. That way it is "put up or shut up" time and no more controversy about which conferences tend to be more favored.

Any team that goes undefeated deserves to atlaest be recognized.  I think that they do belong there because they dont get to choose their schedule and its not their fault they dont have a tough schedule.  All they can do is try to win and go undefeated to even have a shot and thats what they are doing.  Its not fair that even if they go undefeated they still may not be in the top 10 even when a 2 loss LSU is in the top 10.   Give Boise state some credit...they havent lost yet.

Use the current ratings for 1 thru 8 and everyone can stop whining.  If you can't be rated that high then you obviously aren't being left out.  The current system may implode if a few scenarios play out.  Say Michigan loses to OSU and ND wins out, they may be ranked higher than Michigan with identical records and Michigan blew them out.  Now using that logic I don't mean that Oregon State deserves the National title game over USC but Michigan will have only lost to the number one team in the country so couldn't they still be number two?  If they had played the first week of the season they could end up that way but since they play late it's all about who loses last.  It's already happened to Louisville.  They beat WV two weeks ago, lost to Rutgers (an undefeated team) and are now below WV?!?  I am all for a playoff, if you can defeat three of the top 8 teams in the country in consecutive weeks, you are the best, period.

Ah the BCS issues again. The simplest answer is this: The only loss that notre dame has suffered this season has been to #2 michigan. In a sense, notre dame has played a perfect season since the game against michigan, that is the reason why. Arkansas may have played the tougher schedule, but they lost to USC. Arkansas has only had 2 big wins this entire season - tenesse and auburn. Notre Dame has only had 2 as well, but in the end it all comes down to one thing- The terrible BCS system. If you ask me, Arkansas is number 4 in the country, but hey, what do i know?

My Top 10:\n\n1. Ohio St.\n2. Oklahoma\n3. Notre Dame\n4. West Virginia\n5. USC\n6. LSU\n7. Texas\n8. Georgia\n9. Florida\n10. Auburn\n\nMy sleeper is a little different...  I think Boise State will finish 12-0  based on a weak conference and a very favorable non conference slate...  they also are returning 18 starters back from last years 9-4 team...  also look out for Arkansas, they'll be very pesky this year !!!\n\nAs far as a fader...  I don't think Notre Dame will exceed or match expections because the bar is set very very high, and they don't play good enough defense to beat some of those teams on their schedule...

not too sure, but right now its not looking too good.  They are currently down 7, just scored a long td!  I hope UM wins !  Gotta stop the OSU offense

they would have to "smoke" both of them, because of what happened to them when they got smoked by USC. However, if USC were to lose 1 of there last 2 games, especially if it was UCLA, and Arkansas were to run the table, no question, they should be right there............But in my heart, Boise St. has not lost, so they should challange 4 the title.

National rankings were determined by the UPI and AP polls, which closed before any bowl games were played.  Therefore, the bowl loss did not count.  Bowl games used to be considered reward for a good season, not like today.

Missouri has really gone into a tailspin over the last few weeks, first losing at home to Oklahoma, then the loss at Nebraska and what's an embarrassing loss to a bad Iowa State team.\n\nKansas on the other hand is on a roll, with three straight wins, and, if they can count the win over Northwestern State, they already have the 6 wins they need to get a bowl bid.  The three victims aren't really that impressive (Colorado, Iowa State, and Kansas State, who they may have caught on a letdown after KSU's win over Texas) but a win's a win, and that's big in Lawrence.\n\nGiven that, I still think Missouri wins.

Do you mean Ohio State, Oklahome State or Oregon State?  This question is very vague and needs to be revised for better clarification.

Oklahoma should stick in the top 25 all season, provided they don't make any mistakes and blow a game they're not supposed to. They should do well and end up in a BCS Bowl game. But I don't think they'll reach the championship bowl game.\n\nPreseason Top 5:\n1.Texas Longhorns\n2.Penn State Nittany Lions\n3.Ohio State Buckeyes\n4.West Virginia Mountaineers\n5.USC Trojans
