Log-in to rate:Log-in to rate:Log-in to rate:The first official release of the BCS is due today. Also making its debut will be Peter Wolfe's rankings.

Sagarin's and Colley's ratings are already available.

The polls are out also, and the Harris folks still love LSU, which has made the race for #1 incredibly tight. The current projection has a difference of only .0030 between No. 1 Alabama and No. 3 LSU. Essentially, those three teams (with No. 2 Oklahoma) could appear in any order.

Wisconsin is now a solid No. 4 in both polls, and receiving a smattering of first place votes, however, the Badgers' strength of schedule in the early part of the season as been so bad, that the computers are knocking them all the way down to 6th overall.

Oklahoma State will be the No. 4 team in the BCS on the strength of being the top-rated team in the computers.

Note that my projections are only for the top 25 in each computer ranking.

It may turn out to be right, but this is their expert's opinion based on the polls. It isn't official (not that it matters anyway).
