    If Oklahoma State defeats a good Oklahoma team and/or Va Tech wins the ACC CG, beating a good Clemson team, do either have a chance to leap frog to the #2 spot in the BCS (assuming LSU wins out)?

    I know the current margin is wide in the BCS, but the computers still LOVE Oklahoma State and still have them at #2. That leaves the Coaches Poll and Harris Poll. If Oklahoma State wins convincingly against Oklahoma, will enough coaches and Harris Poll voters be swayed to put them in the BCS NG? I found it very interesting that they only dropped to #4 in the BCS.

    Listening to Tom Lugenbill on Finebaum last week, he spoke a lot of "SEC Fatigue" throughout the rest of the country. Pitting LSU/Alabama in the CG guarantees the SEC 6 straight and another year of bragging rights and gloating.

    Anyone think there is a chance that enough folks change their mind following the last weekend?
