• The current BCS standings as assembled by collegeBCS.com. The first official standings will be released Oct. 14.

1. LSU .9807 2. USC .9585 3. Cal .8629 4. Ohio State .8515 5. Wisconsin .8013 6. Boston College .7525 7. South Florida .7180 8. Kentucky .6823 9. Florida .5840 10. South Carolina .5008 11. West Virginia .4965 12. Georgia .4515 13. OKLAHOMA .4309 14. Oregon .4227 15. Virginia Tech .4162

Observations: South Florida absolutely has a chance to play in the BCS title game. The Bulls are a surprising No. 7 this week. Two teams in front of them are guaranteed to lose. No. 3 Cal plays No. 2 USC and No. 4 Ohio State plays No. 5 Wisconsin.

How about a Cal-USC rematch in the BCS title game? Start with a close loss by either team on Nov. 10 in Berkeley. That still leaves enough time for the loser to get back into the top two.

Kentucky just about controls its own destiny in getting to the title game. Starting Thursday it plays three top 10 BCS teams in the space of 16 days. (No. 10 South Carolina, No. 1 LSU and No. 9 Florida)

No team has ever come from further back than No. 12 to get into the title game. That means Georgia, West Virginia and South Carolina are still in. Oklahoma, Oregon and Virginia Tech are in danger of being out.

Hawaii is No. 18 and definitely in the hunt to get the No. 12 ranking it would need to automatically qualify for a BCS bowl. Eight teams ahead of it are guaranteed to lose because of head-to-head meetings in the top 17.

• For the first time, Andre Woodson moved to the head of the class of the Rocky Mountain News' Heisman poll. Ten media members with Heisman votes are polled each week. The total points are followed by first-place votes in parentheses.

1. Andre Woodson, Kentucky 41 (4) 2. Darren McFadden, Arkansas 35 (5) 3. Tim Tebow, Florida 21 4. DeSean Jackson, California 19 5. Matt Ryan, Boston College 14 6. John David Booty, USC 10 (1) 7. Curtis Painter, Purdue 4 8. P.J. Hill, Wisconsin 3 9. Brian Brohm, Louisville 1 10. Chase Daniel, Missouri 1 11. Percy Harvin, Florida 1

This ineligibility thing at Michigan is a bit disconcerting. The school might have to forfeit the Penn State game because an ineligible played the first four games of the season

We need mizzery to beat the bugeaters. although, I think next year's team is the team to take it all.

Oh joy. We would get to be mean old Goliath again. Although, this time I gotta think David would get stomped.

Hawai'i is the only mid-major to have a shot at it this year

I don't know, they're passing for about 7 miles a game nowdays.

And they always seem to leave their defense on the island.

yeah, but think about it...with a bowl in Norman we'd have 2 teams of a-hole fans descending on Oklahoma instead of the customary one. Can you imagine something like Ohio State and Miami playing in Norman?


EEEEEEEK!

I believe the Sooners came from #18 in 2000.

Unless you meant after 5 weeks.

FU recovered nicely last year and landed in the BCS championship. If the team from the first four weeks shows up the rest of the year, I think we have a great case to make it. Will need some help, but its still a possibility considering how this season has gone.

First things first - BEAT THE HELL OUTTA SAXET!!

Although the Sooners have a much less favorable schedule next year in terms of playing some of our tougher conference foes on the road. And we'll have to go to Washington to face the Huskies and the Pac 10 officials.

That's what I was thinking too. But I'm guessing that since the BCS doesn't come out until week 8 or so, that it means no one has done it when ranked #13 or lower from that point on.

We'll be back in the top 10 after this weekend in the fake BCS standings when we beat the University of Texan Convicts and when the University of Floridian Convicts loses to Les Sucks University.
