AP is out. You guys'll be relieved

also moved ahead in Coaches poll. This wont be the only time either. BSU has already reached their high water mark at 3. It is all down hill from here, regardless of how well they do.

Boise has one game left on it's schedule and it is the night after Thanksgiving. They won't receive a lot of love until then. That is the problem with playing in a pathetic conference.

I didn't realize polls should account for games played 13 months ago.

You way this as if OSU had done something to warrant a higher ranking than Boise.

LOL, first, it's Oregon, not Oregon State. And second, didn't they just beat up on #9 Stanford last night?

If either TCU or Utah goes undefeated and the other finished with at least 10 wins, they will pass Boise in the BCS standings by season's end.

*Unless Oregon State or VaTech wins their conference (not likely)

Utah faces #5 TCU and what may be a top 20 (if not 25) team in AFA. They also get a high profile game late in the year on the road against ND (who sucks, but is a name)

TCU faces what will probably be a #7 or 8 Utah team. They also face AFA.

BSU has what? A schedule that is as bad if not worse than Utah's to this point. The strength of their schedule fades as the season goes on until Nevada.

I really think an undefeated Utah or TCU passes Boise in the BCS standings.

IN that case, I truly hope that tOSU or Oregon goes to the BCS championship game, opening up a spot in the Rose Bowl. There is no doubt that Utah would be chosen ahead of Boise for the Rose bowl. TCU? Probably not...Boise would get the nod ahead of them.

Coaches poll only had 58 of the 59 votes this week, Mike Stoops could not be reached. I guess he was on vacation. The coaches really take this thing seriously.

It's a good thing they don't use that poll for the BCS rankings.

This is one of the reasons why I have said in the past that the coaches poll is worthless.

I would like to hear your reasoning for this.

[Coastal Ute]

I would like to hear your reasoning for this.

Probably has something to do with Utah going to the PAC next year. Not sure if I agree with that.

[Goatnapper'96]

So Boise beats Oregon last year, brings back 20 starters, beats NMS 59-0 yesterday and Oregon jumps them in the poll today. Makes perfect sense to me.

I am no lover of BSU, but I think if they are undefeated at the end of the year nobody with a loss should be ahead of them for consideration for the BCS Championship. Until somebody beats them everyone should enjoy a big glass of STFU!

[TripletDaddy]

USC and Texas out. Florida looked like crap. The mighty have fallen.

I think fans of Troy are still in denial mode: everyone has to rebuild eventually.

Oregon looks great. If they are the ones that are going to carry the torch, so be it. I just want to see the PAC own the rose bowl. Do not lose the rose bowl to the b10. And of course, it would be nice if Oregon went to Glendale and won the whole thing. Someone else besides SC has to step up and dominate over a long stretch, not for a season or so. The PAC looks nice thisnyear, though.

[Portland Ute]

More fans. Pac12 next season. Among other things. They can put a PAC12 team in if they can't put the PAC10 or Big10 team in.
