The trend will continue after USC beats UCLA. The national media simply does not want a rematch.

A rematch cheapens one of the greatest games in college football.

I agree... If there was a rematch and Michigan were to win.. Who's the national champion? Ohio State took care of them during the season, why should they have to play them again? I think the BCS these days is about taking advantage of your opportunities. Michigan had a shot, and failed, now it's someone else's shot. If USC lays down on UCLA, then MAYBE Michigan gets in.

I agree. There was also a lot of meltdown this week. West Virginia, Arkansas, Notre Dame...it all adds up to more points for TSUN and USC.

That Colley Matrix computer outfit must really suck, they list Butler as the #1 men's basketball team. I know Butler is pretty good and they recently beat some good teams; but they aren't #1.

How do you expect a computer to make a meaningful ranking after 4-5 games?
