One more week until the official BCS Standings come out. This week it looks like the standings have normalized a bit more as LSU falls to new No. 1, Florida.

 

Virginia Tech has ascended to No. 3 and has taken LSU's place in the coveted four team playoff.

 

Additionally, Ohio State has jumped Iowa to take the Big Ten lead as well as a position in the eight team playoff.

 

The “Crayton C” playoff has been dropped after only one vote last week. Last week, the playoff proposals were renamed. The “Crayton C” playoff had been getting the second highest number of votes when it was called the “Eight-Team” playoff. This week it looks like people actually examined the playoff and found it to be ugly, and agreeably so.

 

The Poll

 

If you have proposals that you'd like displayed next week, then link to them or describe them in the comments section. Up to two may be added for each new iteration of this series.

 

Each week, there will also be a poll for whichever proposal makes the most sense. The playoff with the least amount of support may not appear next week, at my discretion.

 

Enjoy the playoffs below, given in an order considering last week's vote.

 

 

The Playoffs

 

Daniel's playoff (first two rounds on campuses in early December; January Final Four at neutral sites)

 

Sun Belt Champion @ No. 1 Florida
