Lets talk about polls

Now that Texas Tech shit the bed against Oklahoma this past weekend who knows what the hell is going on anymore. So lets break it down.

BCS STANDINGS

1) Alabama- No surprise here. They have a lock on the top spot but they still have to deal with Auburn next weekend.

2) Texas- This ranking is going to be very important for Texas. If all three (Texas, TTU, OU) win next week the team with highest BCS ranking will get into the title game...

3) Oklahoma- They have Oklahoma State next week, #11, so that could help them leapfrog Texas if both teams win.

4) Florida- They are probably playing the best football in the country right now (sounds like USC last year). Florida somewhat controls their own destiny. If they can beat Alabama in the SEC title game that should put them in the national championship.

5) USC- The Trojans need a lot of help to sniff the championship game. Right now they may not even win their conference. They have a shot at an at-large bid if the win this weekend, though.

6) Utah- Can you say the new Boise State?!?! (ironically Boise State had a perfect season). Who knows what this team can do against the big boys but the program did beat Pitt a few years ago back when Alex Smith was at the helm. It will be interesting to see the matchup they get.

7) Texas Tech- They still have a shot because if then can sneak into the Big XII title game and win they are in the BCS and who knows what the will happen above them.
