The only poll that scares me is the Massey poll as we've been ranked really low on it.

They drop the highest and lowest poll.

Harris poll has been released and we're #23!

http://www.harrisinteractive.com/vault/BCS_Oct_21_2012.pdf


That leaves only the computer rankings that are a mystery. Based on last week, I'd say we're a lock for #23 and a long shot for #22 or #21.

This is so exciting! Go OHIO!

This is very exciting, but I believe it requires a revised strategy. Considering that by "doing nothing" we have risen two spots in the AP poll and whatever in the other rankings, it would seem that cancellation of the last five regular-season games could be our ticket to the Top 10!

I turned the channel on 20 minutes ago to make sure I didn't miss it.

Washington Examiner did a countdown of the "lesser" known FBS teams that were undefeated and likely to stay that way.  OHIO came in at number one.

Considering that four of the five are from AQ conferences, "lesser known" is a poor choice of words.  "Lesser heralded" might be better.  Have to agree that we have the best chance of those five to go unbeaten.

I actually heard the play-by-play guy on last night's Cincy-L'ville game say that Penn St's loss to Ohio wasn't so bad because Ohio is undefeated.  They also had a segment discussing the top 4 teams, where they used phony newspaper headlines.  They added a fifth headline: "Bobcats Crash the BCS Party" and a pic of the team celebrating after a road win.  Fun to see.
