They have never held that spot before.
I think MIzzou will win the north.
USA today poll has Ohio state # 10, wisconsin # 11. How dumb are the voters?
Nebraska will still win the north.

. Old bubble screen Watson can't adjust his offense to better defenses and that's been proven over the past few years.

seriously influenced by the dollars driving subscriptions.
You think the Coaches care about the number of copies USA Today sells?
from what was on tv, the bcs formula is a mixture of the AP poll, the harris poll, and a number of computer rankings.
however, i can imagine that espn could get it wrong. ???

The AP poll is no longer part of the BCS formula.
My comment was simply in regard to you statement that the votes of the voters, the college coaches in this case, are seriously influenced by dollars driving subscriptions. I doubt the College coaches care about the subscription numbers of USA Today.
Which is BS. A fair amount of knuckleheads is working for the media, but most media employees getting paid to cover CFB will have a far better overview over CFB in general than the coaches. You think an ACC coach has the time to watch and care about a game between 2 Pac 10 teams? He may look at the box score or see some brief highlights on ESPN, but I think those guys care far more about their team and the teams on their schedule. I have read some stories where some coaches openly admitted they let their interns, equipment guys or sons fill out their ballot.
:lol: how do ya like that? seem to recall telling you that he was no prize catch.

Whoever the 15 idots are that voted for Boise-hoax #1, they should have their AP voting privileges revoked.
EDIT: And the 3 who voted TCU #1.
What's Boise's record against bcs conference teams in the past four years? 9-0?

It doesn't matter what they did in previous years. The current poll is about this year. To beat a dead horse, playing teams like SJSU, Toledo, NMSU, and La Tech week-in and week-out doesn't cut it.
This year's record is 2-0, if that's how you want to keep score. When they played at VaTech, VaTech was ranked 7th. They they won at Oregon St, who is currently top 20. If BCS teams are tired of hearing about them, beat them for once. It hasn't happened in years.
And VT lost to an FCS team, so that win pretty much means diddly squat. Oregon State isn't even ranked right now. But maybe that win over mighty San Jose State win will earn them some brownie points.
