Sgt. Ryan Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 (edited) OU vs Ohio St. I know Ohio St just lost, but here are the teams in front of them 1. LSU - will lose another game. Just call it the Les Miles 2 loss factor. 2. Oregon - Just lost 3. Kansas - will lose to Missouri 4. Oklahoma - Win out, go to NC game. 5. Missouri - loses to OU 6. WVA - BCS avg - 7863 - probably loses to UConn or Cincy, and OSU will probably pass them if they struggle in any game. 7. Ohio St. - BCS avg - 7863 - right on the heals of WVA.

wildcat2334 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Aren't you forgetting ASU?? they haven't played the best schedule- but it is MUCH tougher than OSU's and an SC win would put them ahead of OSU they beat SC and UA, they will jump OSU without a doubt.

Rockerbraves Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 IMO we are headed towards an All SEC National Championship between LSU and Georgia. OU loses to Texas Tech Kansas loses to Missouri Missouri loses to OU West Virginia loses to Cincy Ohio State loses to Michigan Arizona State loses to USC (per Wildcat's request) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Ryan Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 SEC will be left out of the NC, and deservedly so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budlitebrad Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 IMO we are headed towards an All SEC National Championship between LSU and Georgia. I can't see that happening, since that's a lot of top teams that need to lose and Georgia HAS to beat LSU in the SEC title game to have any shot at the NC. A late loss for LSU would likely knock them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgia is currently ranked 9th in the BCS standings so IF things fall into place it should be an All SEC National Championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budlitebrad Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I know it's still a tossup with Tenn or UGA, but I think Georgia has to get into the SEC championship and win to leapfrog the other teams. It wouldn't be terrible for them if Tenn made it to the SEC title game though, since they could still make a BCS game if LSU wins out.

theeohiostate Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 IMO we are headed towards an All SEC National Championship between LSU and Georgia. This would be 100 times worse, then seeing an OSU vs Michigan game last season, also 10 times more unlikely as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current BCS ranking http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/BCSStandings?week=5 Ok Sarg, since we are playing what ifs, OU wins out, Kansas blows up UM 50+ to very little. So its OU vs KU in the Championship, and we win say 31-30, by 1, Kansas has a real good argument to be in the NC picture, you agree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current BCS ranking http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/BCSStandings?week=5 Before last night I thought this was a longshot. Now I think it's almost a 50/50 possibility, if OSU beats Michigan. Two of the Big 12 teams will definitely lose. So it's an issue of Ohio State needing to pass LSU and WVa. Unlike Sarge, I don't know (or care) which Big 12 team wins. I do know that if OSU beats Michigan, there will be 1 Big 12 team ranked ahead of us and 2 behind us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockerbraves Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 This would be 100 times worse, then seeing an OSU vs Michigan game last season, also 10 times more unlikely as well. The difference is that LSU vs. Georgia would not be a rematch. Look I know alot of you say things you don't seriously mean, however there are plenty of people on this forum who have stated that LSU would lose to Georgia if they met in the SEC finals or that LSU is fortunate not to have had to play Georgia this season. So that by itself tells me most people would like to see Georgia vs. LSU should all the other teams falter. TOS imagine two Big 10 teams never facing each other all season yet both are ranked #1 and #2 in the BCS rankings. Wouldn't you like to see that game. I know I would.

Sgt. Ryan Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 Did Michigan last season? OU lost in the Big 12 Champ game, its first loss of the season, and was still #1 in the BCS for the NC game just 4 yrs ago. It has happened. Not likely this yr though.

Wouldn't you like to see that game. I know I would. No I wouldn't want to see it at all. The purpose of the bowl games for decades is to pit conferences vs conferences. That needs to hold true in the BCS system as well, which I'm glad happened last season or we'd have been fooled into thinking OSU and Michigan were the 2 best teams, when obviously they were not.

BS Miscreant Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 OU vs Ohio St. 6. WVA - BCS avg - 7863 - probably loses to UConn or Cincy, and OSU will probably pass them if they struggle in any game. 7. Ohio St. - BCS avg - 7863 - right on the heals of WVA. Current BCS ranking http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/BCSStandings?week=5 Actually, OSU's BCS avg is .7744. Also, I find it unlikely that OSU will jump WVU given they both win out. OSU will have beaten a sub-par Michigan team that's barely in the top 25 and WVU will have beaten two similar teams to Michigan, at least as far as BCS rankings go. I don't see where the jump comes in. As the OU prediction goes, I'd say pretty solid. I'm much more comfortable with what I said in my other post however, that the Big 12 would be represented in the NC game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm much more comfortable with what I said in my other post however, that the Big 12 would be represented in the NC game. Correct, I posted WVA's BCS avg twice, instead of .774 as you did above. WVA will have to lose, since they play 2 top 25 teams from here on out. But doesnt anyone think this yr that isnt possible. Imagine this crazy scenerio. OSU loses to Michigan LSU loses to Arkansas or Tenn SC beats ASU WVA loses ro cincy or Uconn Kansas beats Missouri OU loses to Texas Tech OU drums Kansas by 40 There will be two - 2 loss teams playing for the NC, unless somehow Kansas doesnt drop below 2nd, AFTER losing the Big 12 Champ game by 40, as their only loss.

No doubt. Anything is possible this year. I personally love it. It makes so many more college football games worth watching. It seems as though there have been 2 or 3 meaningful games(in terms of BCS) every week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
