The Harris poll is nonsense

I really want to see this BCS poll

and not just for the obvious reason.

I want to see how close Florida is. Would it be possible for Florida to beat Alabama next week…and still not get to #2?. OU or Texas at #2, would move to #1 with the win…and maybe the other sitting at #3…would go to 2…and not get jumped by Florida who only goes up to #3?

I don’t know if this will happen….but it’s a possibility

Thought Clint Hurdle should be fired before it was cool.

As a Florida fan

it is my great fear. And I think it’s definitely possible. If UF wins next week, it’ll likely be #1 in both human polls, but probably not by a wide margin over OU, and then if the computers have UF still 4th or 5th… someone who has the time to figure out the percentages involved can tell you if that’d be enough to keep UF 3rd—but I have to think it’d be close.

that would be ridiculous

by chuckb on Nov 30, 2008 3:33 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

It would be

and it would set up a OU/UT rematch for a National Champ. game.

I’ve been saying for awhile that I thought the 2 best teams were OU and Florida, and I hope we actually get that NC game

I woud rather play UT than Fl in the NC game. So whatever it takes to make that happen, I am for it.

Bring it on Horns.

Let's get past Missouri first

but for the record I don’t want to play Florida in the state of Florida.

OSU only dropped two spots to 14th

I still am perplexed by UF/USC love

Of all the teams sitting near the top, UF and USC have the slimmest arguments with their losses.

Finally. I could tell by Barry's face.

He is one cool Dude

It looks like there's a chance for a OU/Texas MNC.

If Florida wins a bummer against Alabama and OU wins against Missouri, the numbers appear to suggest a slim possibility that OU and Texas could hold the top two spots.
