It's important to remember that the polls are not averaged into the BCS rankings in an integer fashion- they tally the number of points each team has. So Alabama is much farther away from us than we are from Oklahoma State.
This is going to work against us in the very real possibility we end up 2nd in both polls ahead of Oklahoma State, but despite being ahead in 2/3 of the equation, we would be eclipsed by their computer lead combined with the slim margin we may hypothetically hold in each poll.
