    I'm trying to figure out the Nebraska and Iowa results in light of how the other states around it turned out.

      That was surprising to me. Also surprising that the ACC is split too. But the SEC is still king.

        Can't the BCS see the writing on the wall?

          Luckily the BCS hired a PR guy who can help us understand.

            It appears that those in Alabama are feeling a little threatened.

              It's interesting to see the high population areas where there's nothing personally involved: California and the Northeast. These areas are about 65/35 in favor. I didn't realize the BCS was that unpopular.

                  BCS teams never feel threatened. What on earth are you talking about?

                    Basically the entire world except Texas, Nebraska, Iowa, and all the SEC states think that Boise State deserves a title shot. And the margins are pretty significant.

                        What does this poll have to do with the BCS? The results of the poll would indicate that bias falls along SEC conference lines (with some B12 myopia sprinkled in for taste), not a function of BCS affiliation.

                          Whoops. I must have that wrong then.

                            What the poll indicates to me that the only people that think the BCS is fair this year are the fans with a connection to the teams in the game.

                            I don't think it means the SEC states in general like the BCS. I'll bet if you did this poll back when Auburn was undefeated, the SEC states would be strongly against the BCS.

                              Wasn't the SEC the driving force behind the creation of the BCS?
