2007 Preseason and Regular season Polls

[BengalsAndBucks]

Amazed that we are already that high in all of the computer polls, after playing the weakest part of our schedule.

The current state of the Big 10 looks like there's now way tOSU plays for the National Championship even if they win out. As of right now I'd put in a one loss LSU or Flordia in a thousand times before sending in Ohio State.

Care to back this claim up with facts? Or just whats being spewed over the airwaves?

Actually, they had 2 Big Ten teams in BCS bowls last week, tOSU (Sugar, not the BCS Championship) and PSU (Rose). PSU's loss just moved up tOSU and Wiscy.

Rich Tellshow's BCS projections have Ohio State fifth:

I'm not sure why the W-L isn't updated, because the rankings are accurate.

Wins over 1-AA opponents don't count? ... looks consistent for all teams showing a 3-0 record, having played 4 games.

Eh ... I don't know.

If we are undefeated we go to the big game. The scenario that worries me is three undefeated teams. That is the only way we miss out if we are undefeated.

Exactly!

they don't....

Remember?

The exception was passed before last season allowing every team to have a D-1AA team on the schedule because of the requirement to go to 12 games per year....

Apparently losses to 1AA opponents count, because Michigan is listed as 2-2. :scum4:

Wins don't count, but losses do. Thus, we are 3-0, and UM is 2-2.

Go BUCKS!!

SEC Overrated?

I like this column from the COW on CFN.com

Scout.com: Cavalcade of Whimsy - The Overrated SEC

In an attempt to surpass the record number of frighteningly angry e-mails received, recently set by the "passionate" college wrestling crowd...

As of right now, with the caveat that I'll likely change my tune as the season goes on and as teams start to jell, today, Tuesday, September 25th, 2007, marks day one of the rest of my life. From this day forward, I will try to be brave enough, and strong enough, to stop blindly kissing the SEC's butt.

For years, everyone's been afraid to poke the bear with a stick (as opposed to the legend of The Bear poking Nick Saban), knowing that anything short of continuous genuflecting at the altar of the almighty SEC will bring nothing but great vengeance and furious anger from the most passionate fans in college football...

Conference rankings as believed by many SEC fans:

1. SEC
2. AFC
3. NFC

Well, a lot of those weeks with Ohio State at #1 in the AP came from seasons like 1969, 1998, and 2006. Our national championship in '02 would have contributed exactly one week to the total, if I'm not mistaken.

True, but the Bucks did top the BCS poll for at least one other week in 2002.
