The Tellshow link said it was updated Dec 4, but I think it's just the records of the teams that have been updated and not their actual rankings. Same thing is at CNNSI.com, where their polls are "updated" as of 3:00 am this morning, but the rankings haven't changed, just the team records.

There's no fucking way we're anything other the #4 across the board after LSU and Virginia Tech lost yesterday.

correct.
he's had the right rankings and BCS points but he's just had that harris poll #7 for a while now, like I said, typo. He's usually spot on accurate and ahead of the formal BCS rankings so his site is a favorite of mine.

Go look on the NCAA website and look up the past Div1A football champs. Here is what you'll see:

Past Division I-A Football National Champions



The NCAA does not conduct a national championship in Division I-A football and is not involved in the selection process. Since 1998, the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) operated jointly by the ACC, Southeastern, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten and Pacific-10 Conferences has used a ranking system to determine the number one and number two teams at the end of the season. These two teams play each other in a post-season bowl game for the BCS national championship. Below is a year-by-year history of Division I-A football national champions as determined by various organizations:


The NCAA does not recognize a champion.

They do not because they cannot from this mess called the BCS. They also cannot from the previous mess called the "Bowl System". Take a look at the following link and you will notice a "not so subtle" shot at the BCS:

The NCAA highlights the controversy of every BCS season since its inception. Read that and tell me the NCAA approves of the current mess or not and that they do not support a playoff.....despite the actual words that might come out of their mouthes.

Then, if that's not enough, consider that the NCAA is being called as an expert witness in the BCS review by the House Energy subcommittee.

Agreed. He's got this week's USA-Today poll, and the Harris isn't out yet. But his info for Harris doesn't match last week's Harris.

Of the 6 computer polls, he has actual numbers for Sagarin and Colley at this point, and estimates for the other 4. We are #4 in 5 of 6, and the highest and lowest computer rankings are thrown out.

Our final #4 BCS ranking later today is rock solid.

There are some serious biases on the part of the participants in this poll.
One fool had us #9, and many had is around #7.
Makes you wonder if any of them watched any of the games?

*edit*
As of now, either Harris has taken down the list of voters, or they are moving the file.
Either way, its not working right now...
*edit*
it works again, wtf
