BCS Standings Predictions 2013: What Experts Are Predicting for Week 14 BCS Poll

Week 13 of the college football season may have been the craziest week yet. Just when you think you've seen it all, certain teams don't even bother getting off the bus and suffer a colossal upset. You know what that means. Voters are going to have their hands full trying to put the latest BCS rankings together.

But that's why they get paid the big bucks, right?

Baylor was stomped by Oklahoma State, Oregon looked like a completely different team against Arizona and other possible BCS bowl teams such as Texas A&M and UCLA suffered a heartbreaking loss. If you thought the polls were shaken up before, you haven't seen anything yet.

Which team is going to sneak up behind the Big Three (Alabama, Florida State and Ohio State)? How far does Oklahoma State move up after destroying a quality Big 12 opponent? Any new teams that will just be happy to be ranked?

Samuel Chi, Bleacher Report's BCS guru, tries to answer some of those questions with his latest BCS projections, which can be viewed below:

Rank	Team	Record	Conference	Pvs
1	Alabama	11-0	SEC	1
2	Florida State	11-0	ACC	2
3	Ohio State	11-0	Big Ten	3
4	Auburn	10-1	SEC	6
5	Clemson	10-1	ACC	7
6	Missouri	10-1	SEC	8
7	Oklahoma State	10-1	Big 12	10
8	Stanford	9-2	Pac-12	9
9	South Carolina	9-2	SEC	11
10	Michigan State	10-1	Big Ten	13
11	Baylor	9-1	Big 12	4
12	Oregon	9-2	Pac-12	5
13	Arizona State	9-2	Pac-12	17
14	Wisconsin	9-2	Big Ten	19
15	LSU	8-3	SEC	22
16	Fresno State	10-0	MWC	15
17	Northern Illinois	11-0	MAC	16
18	Central Florida	9-1	AAC	18
19	Louisville	10-1	AAC	21
20	Oklahoma	9-2	Big 12	20
21	Texas A&M	8-3	SEC	12
22	USC	9-3	Pac-12	23
23	Duke	9-2	ACC	NR
24	UCLA	8-3	Pac-12	14
25	Georgia	7-4	SEC	NR

Nobody in their right mind would have thought Auburn would be ranked No. 4 at this point in the season. That means that the Tigers are truly just two wins away from possibly clinching a spot in the national championship. While there are many worthy candidates, Gus Malzahn has to be the front-runner for college football's Coach of the Year.

Baylor and Oregon out of the Top 10 just goes to show how one week can really ruin an entire season at the top. And you know it's been a wacky season when Duke creeps into the Top 25 and it isn't a basketball poll.

Brad Edwards of ESPN had an identical Top 6:

Great. Now we have to go another week listening to how Ohio State is being treated. Edwards also made a fascinating point about the teams' mascots:

Never mind the blowout loss to Alabama; LSU is just two field-goal losses away from sitting pretty with one loss and a possible Top Five ranking. But kudos to Missouri, Clemson and Auburn for proving why college football is the greatest sport in the world due to its insanity.

The most interesting projections come from Jerry Palm of CBS Sports:

Rank	Team	Record	Conference	Pvs
1	Alabama	11-0	SEC	1
2	Florida State	11-0	ACC	2
3	Ohio State	11-0	Big Ten	3
4	Clemson	10-1	ACC	7
5	Auburn	10-1	SEC	6
6	Missouri	10-1	SEC	8
7	Oklahoma State	10-1	Big 12	10
8	Baylor	9-1	Big 12	4
9	Stanford	9-2	Pac-12	9
10	South Carolina	9-2	SEC	11

Clemson over Auburn? Wait, what is Baylor still doing in the Top 10 after such a poor performance on prime-time television? There will be a lot of angry fans from many different conferences if those rankings hold true.

As usual, the official BCS rankings will be released Sunday night at 8:30 p.m. ET.
