Wisconsin won\'t jump us in BCS...I think. - readarmy1976 - 11-27-2010

Wisconsin\'s lead in the USA Today and Harris Poll (2/3 of the BCS score) will shrink, because LSU is between Stanford and Wisconsin in both. Who knows what will happen in the computer rankings, though.

I looked at most of the rankings from last week.  In most cases, Wisconsin has some potential to gain more than Stanford.  However, in many cases LSU should stay ahead of Wisconsin, and that will help.  Stregnth of schedule and conference power is hurting Wisconsin a lot.  We shall see, but the relative gain in the human polls should win out even if Wisconsin gains a bit in the computers.

Better yet the BCS invite politics really are not in play.  The teams that will be ranked #5-#8 would all be going to BCS games too, so we should not see that odd lobbying.

#4 is looking viable.

Most Likely - Fiesta
Possible - Rose
Unlikely but possible - NCG, Orange, Alamo

The realm of possibilities just looks great.  All in all, it was a very good weekend.

11-1 - Amazing.  The team blanked 25% of the teams on the schedule or to put it a different way in conference games they blanked the opponent 33% of the time.  Outstanding.

To think the team is still literally closer to the BCS championship game than the Alamo bowl is almost unbelievable.
