Yep. FSU should get there unscathed but I still think Bama is the best team, AA's sandbaggers notwithstanding. Baylor and tOSU will have to fight it out for 3rd, although I suspect one of them will lose before it's over and Oregon will slide back in. Stanford won its bowl game tonight.

bama does have the toughest schedule left --hard to see them getting in the BCS this year with 1 loss
LSU auburn and mizzou potentially

FSU Baylor for the NC?

TV would get Ohiostate in there somehow

FSU is better than every team in the NCAA except for possibly Bama and OSU. Bama/FSU needs to be the NC game. It would be must-see TV...and AA's sandbagging could finally be honest after all these years.

I thinlk AA talked me into bama having 1 loss this year

baylor/FSU have the easiest roads though texas might give the bears some problems--I cant see FSU losing. Ohiostate should sweep the two michigan schoools I would think

a 1 loss bama team cant get in this year

What a return to glory it would be if FSU won it all this year. That would put them back on the map big time. Even just getting to the MNC game and putting up a good show against Bama is going to get things percolating down in Tallahassee, recruiting-wise...

It's an impossible road. They will not go 12-0 against that murderers row of their last 4 games. Impossible

If Alabama loses (either to LSU or Auburn or whomever) then the MNC will be Ohio State vs Florida State.

" They will not go 12-0 against that murderers row of their last 4 games. Impossible"

They've got #25 Texas Tech (on a 2 game skid, no less) at home, then a decent Okie State away, then currently 3-5 TCU, then unranked Texas at home to finish the season. That's not a cakewalk (nod to Stu), but it's hardly a murderer's row...

Forget the Redskins, there’s a high school in California with a mascot that’s at least as offensive

I give Baylor about a 35% (on the high side) of winning @ OK-State.

That is just one game. I am not even sure Baylor will be favored in it.

IB just did the reverse AA, thereby guaranteeing a "Baylor runs the table" scenario.

Indiana is probably comparable to TCU and Michigan and MSU are both ranked higher than Texas Tech. Okie State is slightly higher than either, but Texas is unranked....

After they had that Bunyan removed, the did drop from the Top 25. Maybe the computer rankings still have them in it, I don't know.
