BCS Poll prediction
Posted on 9/24/08 at 10:44 pm

Not that any poll really matters until the end of the season, but look at our strength of schedule. If the Tigers keep winning, when the BCS standings are published soon, we're going to be at or very near no.1.We'll play at least 4 teams ranked in the top 10....USC doesn't have a single top 25 team on it's schedule.What are your thoughts?

USC plays in a shite arse conference and gets credit for it.

all assumming we dont lose... and the voters move us above OU/SC

Woah woah woah! Slow down champ. We've got to win those game too.

we have to beat florida AND georgia AND alabama AND south carolina to be number one...they give USC way too much credit

Agreed.That's part of the reason for the post.The bar is damn high for us, USC is undeafeated...as are so many others...and their annointed no.1.To dislodge them , LSU will have to perform an almost impossible task...not that the team can't, but it's just not and never was a level playing field.

Strength of schedule doesnt factor in to the BCS.

ANY unbeaten SEC team cant possibly be left out of the NCG, the system would lose any credibility it possibly has left.

Why the hell does everyone say strength of schedule doesn't factor? Maybe not officially, but with human polls, of course it factors! Also the computer polls factor it built in too a bit...

I think you may be wrong. Your opponents win/loss record is a part of the BCS formula, I believe. The stronger teams will have better records. It will work in our favor for BCS purposes.

usc never has anyone to play b/c their conference sucks and they don't play a CC game and we do!
and get punished if it is a loss!
