IMO, KSU and Notre Dame better hope Oregon loses because the meat of Oregon's schedule is about to begin. Here is how I think it will play out in the perfect green and yellow world. Next Saturday, Oregon will go into LA and blow out USC. Voters will then admit Oregon is for real- because no one blows out SC- well, except Oregon 2 of the last 3 seasons. Oregon continues their warpath and destroys Stanford and Oregon State (with lil' ol Cal thrown in). USC wins out and we meet them again in Autzen where we drop another atomic bomb on them to claim our 4th straight Pac-12 title. Now, if Arizona wins out they end up finishing top 15 with only 3 losses- which looks great considering they made Okie Lite a lil' girl when they played them.
The voters will then look at who beat Stanford senseless and who slapped around SC twice. In the end if Oregon lays waste to the rest of their schedule and does not pull starters at halftime, then I think the Ducks have the leg up on both KSU and ND (although the Irish Secret Skull and Cross Society of Drunk Catholics could have some behind the scenes magic up their sleeve. But, then again, maybe Uncle Phil does as well).
However, I've said it all along, I think we somehow drop a game and end up in the Rose Bowl. Next year is the year the Ducks peak and win the Natty. At this time I think Notre Dame has a good shot if they get by SC- which will not be easy because Lee and Woods are beasts. Either KSU and ND could make it to the NC, but both will be gutted by Bama.
If you are KSU and ND you are praying the following teams lose before Oregon gets to them: Stanford, Oregon State and you do not want Zona to win out.
Of course not. After comparing different games its an easy no. You can take the Notre Dame BYU game as well as Stanford and run with those and analyze it. If I must. Explain I will later.
It sucks, but if ND wins out, they might actually still beat out Oregon for the BCS #2 spot. I think Oregon needs Alabama to lose. I think either KSU or ND will surpass them for the #2 spot, which isn't fair, but that's the way it's going down.
Yes. But I got Arizona and Stanford mixed up. Doesn't matter though. It starts with the Notre Dame and BYU game and then compare BYU with other Pac-12 teams. I personally don't understand why its so difficult to see. The Pac 12 is not doing bad this year. All the evidence points to a stronger Pac 12. I will get back to you on it. Other than that I'm done with college football. Once something has been proven corrupt to me im done having anything to do with it. What a joke.
This is how crazy and utterly ridiculous the formula to determine the BCS is- the Sagarin computer rankings are out and it has both Bama and Oregon behind 2 loss OU. Yeah, that makes sense. Corrupt bs.
Stanford - Washington (L) & Notre Dame (L)
Oregon St. - Washington (L)
Yes, but it will lower our sos.
