      I checked a few of the computer rankings (e.g., Sagarin) that comprise the BCS standings, and BYU is consistently ranked in the 31-33 range, so an 8 seed is about right, although I understand all of the computers are currently taking the discussions.

        In what universe is 8-4 Georgia ranked #5?

            I think they drew Kentucky in the first round of the other tourney.

              "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                Georgia is the #5 seed in that bracket just as Michigan St. is #1, UCLA is #4, Vanderbilt is #8, and Nebraska is #9. The pointless exercise is that if Nebraska defeats Vanderbilt, it would probably face Michigan St. and then UCLA; and Nebraska has already played both of those teams. I'd rather Nebraska just play Georgia as scheduled in the Gator Bowl.
