So you think Oklahoma will be ranked #1 in the BCS huh?

Interesting

I don't see USC being #2 unless they have 1-loss. Is that what you're expecting?


EDIT: Come to think of it, you're predicting that the SEC is shut out of the CG. But if USC has a loss in your prediction, as I expect, doesn't the SEC champ have to have at least 2 losses to be shut out of the CG? I can't see the voters letting the SEC champ get shut out of the title game if they have the same # of losses as someone else in the running.

But if the SEC champ has 2 losses, then UGA must have at least 2, which makes me wonder if the Rose would really snag them with their at-large choice to replace USC. Are you thinking that there aren't any one loss teams left after the auto-bids and the 1st at-large?

In other words Bill; I'd like to hear how you arrived at your picks. You know the rules of the BCS too well to have arrived at this without very specific expectations.

DBB, If USC and Oklahoma are undefeated, and Florida beats Georgia, loses 1 conference game, and wins the SEC CCG, does it make sense? The Rose Bowl gets first replacement choice for USC, and decides to pick #3/#4 Georgia over Pac Ten runner-up ASU, since keeping the Big Ten-Pac Ten matchup is too hokey, as Georgia will have already won in Tempe.

And it's not really a prediction, but a way to maximize my chances of winning the contest - those are two different things. Almost everybody has tOSU in the Title game.
