BCS Poll Weirdness...


Oct 29, 2012, 10:05 AM

Okay, I get it. Our strength of schedule blows therefore our BCS ranking sits far below our AP and Coaches poll ranking. I'm not crying about it. However, I'm having a hard time understanding Louisville's jump from number 16 to number 10 in the latest BCS poll. Have any of y'all looked at Louisville's SOS and the combined winning record of their opponents. Something smells...

Louisville is not the problem. Big East champ will get one


Oct 29, 2012, 10:36 AM

team in no matter what. Our biggest non Clemson game (assuming were 11-1) is Nevada beating Boise St. on 12/1. They could by rule get the last BCS spot if they are in the top 16 and the Big 10 or Big East champ is not.

Human pollsters like this and a couple of the computer rankings admit this gets a team a lot of extra points.

Some logic to it (that would have also benefited us if we hadn't blown the lead we had and lost to FSU) - a team can only play the teams they have scheduled so if they beat ALL those teams they should get some credit. Now, if they have a weak schedule and lose to only one team they will fall like a rock.
