Well I'm not a USC fan but a little confused with the rankings and who is allowed to play in a bowl game. One would think that if you're ranked number one, then you would go to it. Go figure! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Reminds me of a headline in our local paper a few years ago. It was the hydroplane races and the Camel boat "Joe" beat "Miss Budwieser". Well maybe you can guess the headline in the paper the next day....
"Joe smokes Bud" Classic stuff man! I think I still have the cliping I cut out. I was quite a stoner back then! [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

That's supposed to be the way it works, and that is why they put the BCS system in to place. There used to be co-champions, and they wanted to eliminate that. The computer that figures out the rankings takes into account the polls, but also includes strength of schedule, etc. Here's what the polls stated:
ntopic: I was joking with my friends about beavers v.s. trojans all weekend, and we were thinking about the different headlines that the reporters were going to put out there. Good to see that they did not disappoint. [img]smile.gif[/img]

LoL...definately USC should play in the bowl game. The ESPN poll results were something like 79% of the people who took it thought USC and LSU should be in the pro bowl...i mean, to be honest, they could just take the "C" out of the BCS...
