    First rankings come out tomorrow night.

    1. LSU
    2. Alabama
    3. Oklahoma

    LSU will certainly be #1, as we will be ranked #1 in all the computer polls.

    Alabama and OU are going to be close, but the edge in the computers goes to Bama.

    Using the current Coaches poll and then using the AP in place of the Harris poll (the voting for Coaches should remain almost identical as all 3 teams dominated)

    ....................Coaches AP Comp Final
    LSU................ .9559 .9820 1.000 = .979
    Bama.............. .9546 .9567 .9500 = .959
    Oklahoma ........ .9634 .9313 .9200 = .938

    I would be a bit surprised if the Harris Poll doesn't mirror the AP with LSU as a resounding #1.

    OU may steal some first place votes from Bama, making it that much closer for 2nd overall in the BCS.

    Edit: Harris poll finally came out and mimics the AP poll, as expected. So my projections stand as stated, except for some very slight tweaks based on Harris poll numbers to replace the AP poll I used in it's stead.

    Replacing AP with Harris
    ....................Coaches Harris Comp Final
    LSU................ .9559 .9780 1.000 = .978
    Bama.............. .9546 .9489 .9500 = .951
    Oklahoma ........ .9634 .9440 .9200 = .942

    I'm curious to see how far the horns will drop after their performance today.

    Out of the top 25 if I had a vote.

    That team was a farce.

    They never belonged in the top 10 anyway. That was a joke to draw hype for the Red River Rivalry.

    Since that ominous national championship game, the longhorns have had a collective emotional breakdown.
