Nebraska, whose rude welcome to the conference continued with a visit from Northwestern. Ohio State also had them on the ropes in Lincoln before losing
their starting QB in that game and the Cornhuskers making a comeback.
Week 11 and the BCS Rankings shuffled a little...
1 LSU 9-0
2 Oklahoma State 9-0
3 Alabama 8-1
4 Stanford 9-0
5 Boise State 8-0
6 Oklahoma 8-1
7 Oregon 8-1
8 Arkansas 8-1
9 Clemson 8-1
10 Virginia Tech 8-1
11 Houston 9-0
12 Penn State 8-1
13 South Carolina 7-2
14 Kansas State 7-2
15 Georgia 7-2
The unofficial NCAA playoffs for Bowling positions has some great games remaining.
LSU/Arkansas, Oklahoma State/Oklahoma, Stanford/Oregon, Clemson/Virginia Tech,
Georgia/Auburn and Boise State's final challenge when they host TCU.
I don't see Boise State's strength of schedule getting them into the BCS Title Game
and that's their own doing. They can claim they will play anybody, but until they do
their end of season situation is not going to change. I'd like to see them in the Big 12
Conference, where they could prove their merits on the field.
It's quite possible that Boise State and University of Houston will be the only unblemished
teams when it's all over. If that does occur I don't see them matched up in a Title Game.
