Keep in mind, the SAGARIN rankings are used as part of the BCS COMPUTOR ranking system................

However, even if Boise State continues to win, they will probably drop a few notches because of their schedule down the road. They need Oregon to continue to play well...............but not to well, as if OREGON were to win out, I gaurantee they would move past Boise State in this poll.

BOISE STATE is caught between a rock and a hard spot here.......simply because of their schedule, nothing more, nothing less.

SUCKS

BY THE WAY, the USA TODAY POLL is used in the BCS system......the AP poll is not.

im not 100% sure ORegon would bounce Boise St. in the BCS...depends on how the shaky pac10 plays out as far and ranked teams.

boise st is sitting pretty right now...i wouldnt be to worried about anything right now if they continue to win bc a lot of teams are going to bump heads in the big12 and sec and lose...if boise is undefeated they are playing for it all this year AS LONG AS they arent 2 other teams without a loss and i dont see that happening...eod

If Iowa wins out they would finish higher than BOISE STATE in the BCS rankings................but that is the LEAST of DANTE's worries.

:laugh:

Iowa will probably lose 2 or 3 games.........so them losing at least one should not be a concern to Dante........but it is a concern, more so than a team like Houston, who if they were to run the table, would NOT pose a threat to Boise State simply because of the schedule they play.......whereas if Iowa defeat the likes of MICH and OSU on their way to an undefeated season, Boise State would not beat them out for one of the top two spots.

Dante, you need VIRGINIA TECH to lose for sure.............that should be your #1 concern at this time in my opinion.

The last column is the Sagarin Ratings. They will get killed by SOS.

New Mexico State is currently the LAST RANKED FCB(A) rated team by the way........................

Hip2Bsq · Sep 28, 2009

Boise ST @ Hawaii is the only threat for them as far as running the table... but there is no way they play for the national Championship due to that sched.

They are bad, Miami (Ohio) not much better. BSU needs to move to the MT West.

I dont fuckin understand this. Boise does this yr after yr. HELLO! you need to schedule better teams or you can go undefeated every year and complain to the computers............

ya i actually looked at the schedules the other night, not enough in front are going to go down for them to move up...they need 2 losses from all the big schools and its not going to happen...they will make the BCS bowl if they run the table...

what i was hoping for would be teams like OU Texas USC VT BAMA OHIOST all to have 2 losses and FLA/Boise both be undefeated and it would be almost impossible to put a 2 loss team in over them....maybe it will happen someday....

fwiw, i think tulsa is a live dog tonight....

Agree. Line a bit inflated. Should really only be 4 or so.

if you can "read" the lines and the line movements it also indicates that Tulsa + the points is a sharp play.

sportsoptions is showing 74% of the public on Boise.... other books are showing 80% on Boise, yet the line is dropping?

whenever I see all the public betting one way, and the line continues to drop this is a dead giveaway to me of which side to wager on.
