    "I think if Ohio St and us win out, the polls might let them jump us because the media is baised towards Ohio St over LSU."

    if Ohio state wins out they deserve to jump us, but don't hold your breath because there is no chance

    We would be playing a Big Ten team in a BCS bowl if it was the end of the season right now.

    Since Pitt would be the weakest conference champion and automatic BCS qualifier, I would HOPE that they would play an at-large team--such as Texas and save a BCS bowl that has us and a more impressive conference champ...say Michigan?

    Arizona beat Washington on Saturday, so they could beat USC if things fall right.

    Realize that LSU and USC are probably overrated, because they only have one loss. Their weak SOS really helps both teams, because number of wins is what it really comes down to in BCS conferences. Who has USC played? In 9 games, they played only 1 current Top 25 team. They did win that game, but they lost to unranked Cal. There is more than one better team than USC. I think LSU is better for one. LSU beat #6 GA and their loss is to a ranked team.

    USC's big win was against Washington St., a team that Notre Dame beat!
