BCS Standings: LSU 1st, Kansas 3rd, Hawaii 16th in New Rankings
After Ohio State's loss to Illinois the BCS Title Game is up for grabs between undefeated (Kansas) and many 1-loss teams. LSU has taken back the #1 spot with Oregon now into 2nd. Kansas, the only undefeated contender (Hawaii no chance) has just two games remaining and could get a big SOS boost from the showdown in Lawrence November 24th. Should Kansas, Missouri or Oklahoma win out do you think that would be enough to leap over the Ducks? It just might.

Here's the remaining schedule for the top 6 teams:

LSU Oregon Kansas Oklahoma Missouri West Virginia
@ Ole Miss @ Arizona Iowa St. at Texas Tech @ Kansas St. @ Cincy
Arkansas @ UCLA Missouri Oklahoma St. @ Kansas UConn
SEC Title Oregon St. Big XII Title Big XII Title Big XII Title? Pittsburgh

What's your guess at the BCS title game now?

Personally I love it when this kind of crap happens.  It just helps to justify the need for a playoff.

My guess?

Controversy.   And lots of it.

That KU/MU game is at Arrowhead. It really doesn't matter which team OU has to play, either way it helps the Sooners SOS. Best case of those would be playing KU since they haven't beat them yet but either way they are good. So yes I do think the Big 12 Champ will make it to the NC.

The winner of the Big 12 will go to the National Championship unless you have Oklahoma losing against TT or OkSt and beating the winner of the Kansas v. Missouri game. That or any other scenario where the winner of the Big 12 Championship is a two loss team. I still think Oregon might end up losing at UCLA so if all that happened would that mean a LSU and WVU National Championship (assuming they run the table)? That sounds awful.

Ohh yeah. Anyone think it is possible for Hawaii to be snubbed out of a BCS bowl even if they run the table?

I do, I don't think the human voters respect Hawaii. I know I don't. If they can beat Boise St. though, that might be all they need to gain a few votes and get some computer help to get them to 12 or they finish ahead of the ACC Champion.

It's the computer rankings keeping Hawaii down, as almost all of them have Hawaii outside the top 25. Deservedly so too, since Hawaii hasn't played anyone yet.

They aren't in the top 15 of any of the human polls either are they?

Look at the link in the post. 11th in the Harris Poll, 12th in the Coaches.

You two are right. I really didn't look past the top 6 or so.

Another way to look at it then. If Hawaii is ranked that highly on their cupcake schedule thus far, then how high can they climb if they beat UNR in Reno, a top 20 Boise, and Washington?

They would move up, but all that would really prove is that they are mediocore.  Washington sucks, and Boise State lost to them.  It would just prove they can beat a major conference bottom feeder.

KU, Missouri and OU run the table to the Big 12 Championship game, the winner will make a tremendous argument.  KU wins out and they are legit in every way and deserve a shot at the title.  OU's one loss to Colorado could be overseen by winning the Big 12.  Hawaii has to win out to even pipe in the smell of a BCS bowl.  SOS is just not there.  Good story, but they could improve their out of conference scheduling in the future.

Still too early to anoint LSU, Oregon, or a Big XII schedule for a national championship bid yet.  Rivalry games await.
