Oregon and Auburn picked up 2 and 1 points each - Boise State gained 11 points.

TCU LOST 18 points and Wisconsin picked up 14 points.

LSU held the same number and Ohio State picked up 9 points.

Stanford picked up the most points - 46.

The reason I point these out...the points become important when figuring the overall percentages in the BCS formula. The one loss teams continue to pick up ground on TCU, but Boise gained some steam again. Also, for Buckeyes fans it is less likely that OSU will gain enough on the poll side to pass Wisky in the BCS standings...you still gotta be hoping for an LSU loss for that to happen.

Most important thing is obviously the Ohio Bobcats getting 5 votes.

LSU is overrated. 6 of their wins are by a TD or Less.
Arky will beat them.

Need Wisconsin and one of Auburn or Oregon to lose. I think Auburn loses the SEC championship game, LSU is obviously going to be locked out because of the whole "they didn't even win their own conference" stuff.

TCU and Boise aren't going to play in the title game, book it! I could see the game being between Wisconsin and Oregon.

you must have forgot 2007. LSU made the championship game with 2 losses and without an SEC conference championship

Agree. I think LSU is the biggest fraud next to Utah. I think Ark takes them down.

I'm in the minority here but I think LSU is a good team that's clutch and finds a way to get it done.

You gonna tell me they found a way to get it down vs Tenn? That was pure luck. And yesterday, they struggled to beat a 6 loss team, giving up 36pts at home. Are they good? Yes they are. Are they THAT good, top 5 or so good? I don't think so.

How the hell can you say this and be an Ohio State fan? Do you not remember 2002?

If Oregon or Auburn loses...TCU or Boise will play in the title game

Who did Ohio State lose to in 2002? How many games did they win because the other team had too many men on the field?

I can see his point though...many close games and many different ways they found to win at the end of games.

Well, they DID find a way vs. Tennessee considering the Vols stopped them illegally with 13 defenders on the field. The next play when it was 11-on-11....they scored to win the game. That's not luck, that's fair. They found a way yesterday too. You're getting caught up in style points. Wins are wins. Except for one game this year...they got it done when it mattered.

if you count a bad snap as tennessee stopping them with 13 defenders on the field, you are correct ;). They beat themselves, and caught a good break.

13 players on the field is as illegal as it gets-bad snap or not. A win is a win. And they've made a habit of winning close games. That's not luck....that's being good and knowing how to finish and win close games.

LSU did get bailed out yesteday by the penalty call for diving into the end zone on the Ole Miss guy... or I think that the game winning drive is vastly different... you're talking 15-20 yds in field position there because of where the kickoff came from which is a HUGE difference

^^ I thought that call was questionable.Its not like there was nobody within 10 yards on him..the LSU guy was right on his ass and probably would have got him if he dove

that's what I thought as well... but it also looked as ifthe LSU guy was in cruise mode and content to give up the score and was pulling up, which may have contributed to the flab

Clueless as always. Evidently the voters across the country think LSU is legit. A win is a win. And when you are 10-1 and play a schedule like LSU does....you must be pretty good. So if LSU is a fraud, whats that make OSU? OSU struggles against Iowa this week and played pretty horrible last week until PSU handed them the game. But, I guess OSU must be legit since they have beaten one team thats ranked #24 and a bunch of nobodies. OSU good wins-Miami and Iowa. LSU good wins-WVU, Bama, Florida, Miss. St.
OSU's loss-SPANKED by Wisconsin. LSU's loss-7 points to the #2 team in the country
LSU had to have miracles in 2007 (Same as OSU in 02) and they won the title game with ease. But, let me guess....if LSU beats Arkansas for another quality win, then LSU is a fraud still, right?
Stats mean squat, only W's matter.

And as for the biggest frauds, they would be Utah, Mich. St, Oklahoma, Stanford, and Iowa
