BCS Breakdown
Everything has fallen into place and the Big Ten will have their dream match until next Saturday when the Wolverines of Michigan travel Columbus to take on the Ohio State Buckeyes. These are two of the four undefeated teams left in Division-IA and the winner will get a final offer for BCS in Glendale, Arizona. These are the two best teams in the polls, computers, and Harris Rankings - all of which comprise the current classification BCS. The Buckeyes come into play around a touchdown favorite and have a more impressive after Michigan from beginning to end. This number also reflects the recent success of Coach Jim Tressel coach Lloyd Carr against Buckeye coach Michigan has beaten four times in five countries and is far from what John Copper was when training on the horseshoe.
That said, let's look at the seven best teams in the BCS standing, and the probability of making the championship game Jan. 8. Teams are evaluated based on the situation Current BSC after completion of the games on Nov. 11.
1) Ohio State Buckeyes - My preseason choice to win everything has done nothing to disappoint me to this point. They have played in hostile environments such as Austin and Iowa City and came up with impressive victories outbreak. A victory at home and to be assured of a place in the championship game. A Michigan loss, and there is still a possibility that could come into BCS title game, but the work would be a higher percentage trip to the Rose Bowl. The other conferences would frown on a title game rematch where both teams come from the same conference.
2) Michigan Wolverines - The season started with Lloyd Carr under fire, but an early season win in South Bend gave this team and validation have yet to give that up. A victory Columbus marked a 12-0 record and a trip to Glendale. A loss in Columbus and is very likely that they would represent the Big Ten in the Rose Bowl for the third time in four years. Only the opportunity they would have to return to the title game is if both of Notre Dame and finished with 11.1 themselves and all other records of the PAC-10 and SEC had two losses. That would be difficult to choose Notre Dame at Michigan, taking into consideration what the Wolvernines did the Irish in South Bend in September.
3) Southern Cal Trojans - The Trojans are in the best way classification taking into account the two teams ahead of them play each other this week. They will be able keep out of Florida in the classification given three games left in his program come against formidable opponents. If you can complete the Trifecta receive an invitation to Glendale. The problem is that any of these three teams (California, Notre Dame, UCLA) can knock them off giving them a second defeat. The only thing holding them back they might have suffered a bad loss to Oregon, but that would be forgotten quickly by beating California and Notre Dame.
4) Florida Gators - Everyone seems to be accumulating in the Gators this week to close its called the swamp against former coach Steve Spurrier. That said, a win is a win and if you can win outside of Florida who has finished 12-1 in what many believe is the toughest conference in the country. It needs some help with In order to reach the title game. Reproduction of Western Carolina and Florida State should fall well below the USC in the computers and thus be unable to capture if both ended up with just one defeat. The Sugar Bowl is likely to be called your name.
5) Notre Dame Irish - The team everyone loves or hates still get wins after an early season hiccup against Michigan. The Irish are all but assured a BSC Bowl game, but the road to the championship is not promising. Will difficulty moving past No. 4 in the classification and therefore will require that the human factor plays a role if they have visions of Arizona. Another factor against them is that both Michigan and Ohio State beat Notre Dame in the last year.
6) Rutgers Scarlet Knights - Rutgers is one of three undefeated teams in conference play BCS after this week and probably one of the two teams left. This team will probably be a double-digit pressed against West Virginia, therefore Most likely, then be off the table and fall of the Top Ten. If you happen to pull the upset, which would have a case to represent in Glendale, but still probably not going to happen. They scheduled too weak in the nonconference part of the season and have had too long of a path up through the standings. The best we can hope for is a national division titles, winning the Associated Press poll.
7) Arkansas Razorbacks - The Hogs have been numerous victories impressive and should ensure the SEC West with a victory against Mississippi State this weekend. They have the ability to move up in classification because LSU and Florida are still on schedule. If they can finish the season 12-1, they could jump to the top if USC and Notre Dame each suffer another loss. It would If jump USC if they both end up with only one considering the loss of the beatings that took place in Fayetteville to open the season.
These are the seven teams competing for a shot at the National Championship. All are valid reasons, but only three teams control their own destiny. All four teams need help and in the case of Rutgers, still not be enough.
