Go Hawks :)

Personally - I agree that the BCS rankings are a bunch of BS. But Iowa only has 1 loss and USC has 2 - so personally, I believe Iowa should be ranked above USC. We beat 2 top 15 teams (UM/PSU) on the road and have had a great season with a possible heisman winner (banks).

If youre going to have strength of schedule be so heavly weighted - I think margin of victory should come into play as well. I agree, Ohio State had an awesome year at 13-0, but some of those games they barely got by (Purdue- last minute heroics/IL in overtime/Michigan) did they get penalized for that? Not really.

It would be RIDICULOUS if USC beats ND this weekend (and I hope they do) and still doesn't earn a Rose Bowl invitation b/c WSU won this weekend and holds the tiebreaker (head to head winner)

Teams like FSU, not even in the top 15 - who earn an automatic BCS bowl bid just b/c theyre conference champ - don't deserve it and shouldn't get the bid.

Oh well - until the BCS system is fine-tuned or we turn to a playoff system, nothing we can do but complain...
