I just don't get how a 2 loss team is #9

I don't care if it's USuC or not. A two loss team (that barely beat UT at home) should not be anywhere near the top 10.

That doesn't bother me as much as them getting absolutely throttled by Florida.
I also don't get how Oregon St can lose at a team with a losing record, and they only drop 4 spots...when FSU lost they dropped +/- 14 places.
We lost @ FSU, yet we're still projected to be unranked in two computers. We're also ranked lower than every other team in the computers except for Rutgers and OK State.
I think the only way the ACC is going to get any respect in the computers is in the final week...both us and FSU will need to win out, and then in the final week we may be ranked in the top ten...though UF and Carolina will still probably be ranked ahead of both of us even after losing.

matter so much? The 3rd best team in the country could potentially have 2 losses if they lost to the #1 and #2 teams.
I'm not going to bat for SCAR here, but this is one of the things that really irritates me with the rankings. Sheer W-L record is weighted too heavily while actual performance in the games is overlooked.

at large berth if the polls continue to log jam their teams into the top 14. Under the rules they can only have 2 teams in BCS bowls, so all their other highly ranked teams would be sent to regular bowl games and if Clemson remains in the top 14 then they would have to be chosen as an at large team..............with these results there are 7 SEC teams in the top 14, so that eliminates 5 of them from a BCS game leaving all other teams in the top 14 with at large qualification berths.
