    Well gang we are in the unfortunate position of having to root for other teams again, just like in 03. We have to root for any future opponent so that WHEN we beat them our wins will look better to the voters. We have to root for Auburn to win today against ARK. We have to root for Kentucky to win out and get the highest ranking they can get so that WHEN we beat them in the SECCG then we will move up. We have to root for any team ranked above us to lose. It's not a good position to be in but here we are.

    We are in a lot better position than in 03 at this point in the season.

    We'll be higher ranked in the BCS than South Florida come tomorrow. Which means we will always be ahead of them the rest of the season as long as we win out.

    That leaves only OU, BC, Cal and Ohio State. I don't think Ohio State will lose but I do believe the others will all lose again. Cal will more than likely lose tonite in fact.

    BC and OU both have to play a conference championship game. Missouri will beat them the next time they play.

    Right after the game a good buddy of mine, huge Ohio State fan who I turned into a Tiger fan, called and we talked about Ohio State. He says he is nervous about Michigan. He says that when they play records and rankings don't matter when they play. Alot like us and Aub. We'll see. Anyone can beat anyone.
