I know it's very unlikely to happen, but what if
1) LSU wins out
2) FSU upsets Florida

Do we still jump any unbeatens?

This scenario, as unlikely as it is, is why I want some insurance... soon

A win BY LSU over FLA at that point woulnd't help much!!!! BUT Its a shame that If you put Iowa against LSU. The winner is rather obvious. I don't care where its played.

I wouldn't worry about Iowa. The Hawkeyes have been living on borrowed time. They will not go undefeated.

Besides, LSU just needs to win out. In all honesty, if LSU wins out and Iowa does go undefeated and ends up in the BCS title game instead of LSU, I won't argue, because a BCS conference team with one loss has little to argue about over a team from another BCS conference that goes undefeated.

Cincinatti may be good, but if they finish undefeated, their will be a legitimate argument between them and a one-loss SEC team/Oregon/Ga Tech. Cincy's strongest OOC opponent is Illinois. The Big East is a shell of its former self and they are not much different from CUSA or Mountain West IMHO.

As much as I would love to see Iowa's mediocre arse get waxed in a big game, I really don't think they run the table. Even a cat only has 9 lives. These boys are running out fast. I do like their coach though.

re: Herbie just said what I have been sayin....
Theres a reason the BCS National Championship isnt played at the beginning of November.

Its because theres still WAY too much football to play. Way too many what ifs. Everyone's assuming the top ranked teams cant be upset by an unranked opponent. People, how many seasons of college football have you watched??? Its gonna happen, trust me.

I wouldnt worry about it too much right now. Let this thing unfold. Going undefeated from here out, will without a doubt put LSU in a great spot. We still have a daunting schedule remaining. So sit back and enjoy the ride.

LIke TigerBill says, there's still plenty of football left to be played. Hell, Cincy still have West Virginia and Pitt left on the schedule. Either of those two could possibly take them down - - maybe both.

My point from earlier is this - unless you are undefeated, you really don't have any room to whine. Now, if we're talking about teams with equal records in the loss column, then that's a different story altogether.

I don't care what ANYONE says. LSU is BETTER than TCU, BOISE, IOWA or CINN. But I see how the system works.

LSU vs Iowa...or Alabama vs Iowa in the NC game.....LSU has a better chamce because we no longer have the dumbarse coach who called a defense which allowed a Hail Mary pass on the last play of the game...oh wait-Bama has him now!!!!

THE BCS formula is easy.

1) Computer Polls (1/3) vote goes to ANY team that is undefeated regardless of schedule/conference/margin of victory/Luck.

2) The Human Polls (2/3) vote on the most popular team at that specific moment (I think this has something to do with making money. hmmm.)

Lesson to be learned: Win over the Human Polls and you swindle the system. This is where politics get involved.

Chavis would win those games more than MIles. Try to argue if you want.
