Bored 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2004 Guess we'll need a replacement for Oklahoma.... Anyways as I promised since we're past the midway point of the season here are the entire rankings. Remember in parenthesis is your win/loss ranking, correct pick pct. ranking, and your strength of schedule ranking. BCS Top 10 thru Week 7 1. Virginia - Edwin MacPhisto 2.33 (5/1/1) 2. Minnesota - Vern Gagne 5.00 (9/5/1) 3. Ohio State - Gert T 5.33 (9/1/6) 4. Washington State - bravesfan 8.67 (9/13/4) 5. Notre Dame - Lando Griffin 9.33 (2/5/21) 6. West Virginia - Loaded Glove 9.33 (14/5/9) 7. Oklahoma - Damaramu 10.00 (14/4/12) 8. Syracuse - CanadianChris 10.33 (2/8/21) 9. Stanford - Bored 11.00 (1/3/29) 10. Oregon - nogoodnick 11.67 (9/8/18) The Other 22 11. UCLA - phoenixrising 11.67 (14/17/4) 12. Auburn - Agent of Oblivion 12.67 (9/8/21) 13. Hawaii - Will Scarlet 12.67 (24/8/6) 14. LSU - teke184 13.00 (5/13/21) 15. Alabama - AlwaysPissedOff 13.00 (14/8/17) 16. USC - Cartman 14.33 (14/23/6) 17. Arizona State - Spicy McHaggis 14.33 (24/16/3) 18.

Kent State - JHawk 22.67 (24/25/19) 31. Boston College - HarleyQuinn 24.00 (14/31/27) 32. Boise State - Vern Gagne/*dead team* 32.00 (32/32/32)** * - one forfeit ** - two forfeits And now if the season ended today here are how the bowl match-ups would look. I'll be updating this every week from here on. Remember the three BCS bowls are made up of the four conference champs and two at large teams. Also to be bowl eligible you have to finish with a winning record so if you don't have a winning record now I won't have you listed. Of course as I was putting together I noticed we have only 13 teams with winning records so I guess it might be possible to make it to a bowl with a losing record. Loaded Glove gets the honor for the moment Massengill Douche Country Flower Bowl: Washington State (At-large) vs. West Virginia (At-large) Out Magazine Bowl: Ohio State (Pac-8 #3 or Big MAC #3) vs. Auburn (Mid South #3 or Big Atlantic #3) KFC PETA Bowl: Oregon (Pac-8 #2) vs. Maryland (Big Atlantic #2) Lucky Strikes Cigarettes Tar Bowl: Bowling Green (Big MAC #2) vs. LSU (Mid South #2) Traditional Bowl presented by Adam & Eve’s Anal Lube: Stanford (Pac-8 #1/BCS at-large) vs. Notre Dame (Big MAC #1/BCS at-large) Oxycotton Bowl: Syracuse (Big Atlantic #1/BCS at-large) vs. Georgia (Mid South #1/BCS at-large) MILFHunter.com Bored Bowl: Virginia (BCS #1) vs. Minnesota (BCS #2) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teke184 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2004 Anyone else seem to notice that the Big South teams seem to be getting penalized in the Strength Of Schedule column compared to other leagues? (NOTE: The Big Atlantic is getting this too) As an example, I've got a better record (1/3 of BCS total) than UCLA, a team I beat, and have picked better answers than them (1/3 BCS total), but I'm getting ass-raped in Strength Of Schedule while they're getting moved to the top of the list because of it. Is part of the reason why we're suffering due to Georgia forfeiting at least one game before Mike took over the team? Or is it because of the Out Of Conference scheduling being weak through no fault of our own? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or is it because of the Out Of Conference scheduling being weak through no fault of our own? The only person's strength of schedule that is hurt is by the team that forfeited so no it has no effect on anyone else. On the other question remember the strength of schedule is based solely on how your opponent picked that week and not what they did the rest of the season. I did it this way because unlike real football here we have no control over what our opponent does and it's irrelevent what your opponent does other weeks. I'll look into what Mike's and iggy's ranking would have been without the forfeit but Teke you're only #13 in correct picks so you have had some luck in being 5-2. Gert has been #1 in picking games I think almost the entire contest but he only has a 4-3 record to show for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd have to look through the old picks to make sure but I believe this was the first week Gert actually was late with his picks and he would have lost by tiebreak this week even if he hadn't lost one point. Only difference would be he'd be alone at #1 in correct picks right now instead of tied with Edwin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teke184 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2004 As an easier way to make sense of the BCS numbers, could we please get a list of the percentages picked correctly for each team? That could be used to determine how big of a gap there is between Edwin at the top and someone like Harley Quinn near the bottom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
