So the object is to stay out of the #2 and # 5 spots ???
Except for the final week, then you'll take the number 2 spot !

Why? Kentucky is really good this year and will probably finish in the top 15.I'd assume that the loss to Kentucky would carry the most weight.
Kansas has several chances to lose to good teams down the stretch. First there's Oklahoma State, Iowa State, then #6 Missouri (rivalry game). Then if they win those three, the Big-12 Championship game. That's a tough stretch for anybody. If KU wins out, they deserve to be in the BCS Championship. If they don't win out, then they don't deserve to be there. It's simple.Why? Kentucky is really good this year and will probably finish in the top 15.
Kansas would be dismantled by LSU. Hell by several SEC schools IMO
Yes if they win out down the stretch they probably deserve a shot, i still think that they arent as good as LSU. But an undefeated team from a power conference does deserve the slot. One more reason there needs to be at least a mini playoff for the top 4 slots in the BCSKansas has several chances to lose to good teams down the stretch.

Even though i am a Bama fan that was a hell of a game!I concur. :up

Yeah this year has been crazy! What kills me, and this is typical alabama football, is we will play a team like LSU down to the wire, and a few weeks earlier do the same to Houston. It doesnt matter who we are playing! Im right there with ya on the blood pressure!Yes indeed - I knew it would be tough playing Saban. LSU has been in so many nailbiters recently, I'll probably need something for my blood pressure after the season! I know Bama's been in a few close ones themselves. Nature of the SEC I guess.

Yeah i remember that game.Saban's early teams at LSU did the same thing - even lost to UAB if you remember! Alabama has more talent than those early LSU teams. Saban will have them running on all cylinders maybe as early as next year (although I hope not!).

I concur. :up
wasnt me, dont think he did either, but not sure. I think kansas if undefeated should play for the championship over LSU(assuming OSU doesnt lose) . Even so i still think LSU is the better team. Now if OSU loses, and kansas wins it should be LSU and kansasWhich one of you was saying that Kansas should be ranked ahead of OSU ?
You just went the opposite direction with your last post, stating that the better conference should be ahead.
Do you really rank a Big 12 top team ahead of a Top Big 10 and number 1 ranked team in the nation ???

OSU has lost ...
Why should it be LSU and Kansas ??? What about the rest of the 8-9 1 loss teams.
OSU loses, should the drop a few spots or out of the top 20 ?
Other teams lose and drop a few, well see what happens with the Bucks.
There are 9 one loss teams now and Alabama has lost again as well.
Jimbo
I love watching the Buckeye's lose! (Sorry Jimbo)!
I personally believe Oregon should be the number 1 ranked team.
Way to go Illini! Now everyone is confused again. Kansas should now be considered.

Zook called a good game. His team actually has some speed! Made OSU look slow.
Kansas looked good today. If they win out over Mizzou, then OU in the Big12CG, they definitely deserve to be in the MNC. As far as LSU and Oregon, the rest of the season is going to tell that story as well. Georgia is hitting their stride right now. If LSU manages to win their next two and gets to the SECCG, they will have a heck of a time against Georgia, especially playing them in their own backyard.
