The NCAA 10: BCS & Heisman Update

One of these days they’ll give us a playoff, but for now we’re left arguing about who’s ranked where and who’s left out, etc.

Oklahoma got the huge win this weekend against the Red Raiders but are still on the outside looking in for the BCS Title game.  For me, there is just no logical explanation as to why Oklahoma is not the second best team in the nation, if not the best, right now.

MY BCS TOP 10

My rankings are not how I predicted they would end up, nor are they how I think they might finish, but rather where I see them now, through games of November 22, 2008:

Rk	BCS	U/D	School	W	L	Notes
1	1	Up	Alabama	11	0	Don’t forget Auburn.
2	3	Up	Oklahoma	10	1	Did you watch that?
3	4	-	Florida	10	1	Still in the mix.
4	5	-	USC	9	1	Poor Notre Dame.
5	2	-	Texas	10	1	Sitting pretty at 2.
6	7	Dn	Texas Tech	10	1	Cotton Bowl?
7	6	-	Utah	12	0	Fiesta Bowl bound?
8	9	-	Boise State	11	0	Will they take two?
9	8	-	Penn State	11	1	Rose Bowl awaits.
10	10	-	Ohio State	10	2	BCS bowl in future?

MY HEISMAN TOP 5

What goes in to selecting a Heisman winner?  There are so many variables.  Look here for my list of them.

My Heisman rankings are not necessarily who I think is the most talented or who has the most NFL potential (Texas Tech's Michael Crabtree would probably get the nod if that were the case). Rather, it is where I see the Heisman race as it stands now, based on how I think the vote would go. 

Rk	U/D	Player	School, Pos.	Notes
1	Up	Sam Bradford	Oklahoma, QB	3710 yds, 42 TD, 6 Int
2	-	Colt McCoy	Texas, QB	3134 yds, 30 TD, 7 Int
3	Dn	Graham Harrell	Texas Tech, QB	4438 yds, 39 TD, 6 Int
4	Dn	Tim Tebow	Florida, QB	2114 yds, 22 TD, 2 Int
5	Up	Shonn Greene
