Why is USC even ranked?

While I understand that they are ranked last I don't get how they can even be ranked at all other than the media pushing for this.

It is ridiculous for them to even be ranked after losing at home to an un-ranked Arizona when they were barely in the top 15.

How can the media not acknowledge their bias towards USC?

Or because the computers like them. Computers don't listen to the media.

they are 8-4 with a win over tOSU

there conference was actually stronger than past seasons

without even looking what are they ranked 23 or so, seems fair to me.

A case can be made for all teams ranked near 25

USC is ranked 26 and 27th in the polls and 19 in the computers so there goes that theory

they dropped off this year but id still pick them over most teams in the top 25 outside of the top 10.

Dude they are ranked 26, 27, and 28 in the three human polls. That is indicative of where they belong. The BCS computers aren't allowed to account for margin of victory, and I assure if they did, USC would NOT be in the top 25 since they lost by 20+ to both Stanford and Oregon.

Quit bitching and moaning. Who cares about these shitty rankings. Honestly, the only BCS rankings that matter are #1-4 because they directly CAN affect if you get an automatic BCS bid. Outside of #14 its meaningless since none are eligible and that's all the BCS poll is for determining.

I HATE USC. But, they had one of the better wins of year beating OSU on the road and played in the second best conference.
