CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted September 23, 2006 Sportsline has 24-17. I'd guess 24-23 is the correct score if there was a blocked PAT, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted September 23, 2006 Yahoo has 29-24 Navy in regulation. ESPN has 29-24 Navy in OT, which can't happen. Sportsline is still stuck at 24-17 Tulsa, but for some reason, their scores stop the first time anyone scores in OT. Oy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2006 The new #1 is the old #1 as I'm sure you could figure out by the results, but Ortonsault still had a relatively strong showing so only drops one spot. Of course the CONTROVERSY~ will be my ranking even though I'm only 2-2 but I'm tied for 3rd in correct picks so there's your answer. Ya go ahead and call me dirty names like "Pac-10 referee" or something. But I'm not the only 2-2 team that cracks the Top 10 as you'll see. The other controversy will be the still missing nogoodnick. Sorry nick your 20th in correct picks right now at just 58.9% so you've been lucky. A lucky win for fellow undefeated phoenixrising cost them in the rankings. Veterans of the contest will know that rankings in even weeks always give some odd results because there's a bunch of teams at .500 which causes havoc with the rankings. Also the large number of no shows this week also screwed things up a bit. Oh and the new feature that I mentioned last week debuts. Since I expaded to 40 teams this year, which I'm now thinking wasn't the best idea, I considered expanding the BCS rankings as well. Instead though I decided to go with an "Other Receiving Votes" category. This will be the teams ranked 11th thru 14th although they'll be listed in alphabetical order so you won't know your exact ranking but you'll know if your on the edge of the Top 10 or not. Bored Championship Series Rankings thru Week 4 1. Hawaii - Will Scarlet 3.5 2. Temple - Ortonsault 3.75 3. Oregon State - Princess Leena 3.9 4. Miami - Spaceman Spiff 4.7 5. Syracuse - CanadianChris 5.7 6. South Carolina - Cuban Linx 7.4 7. Stanford - Bored 7.5 8. Virginia - Edwin MacPhisto 8.95 9. UCLA - phoenixrising 10.25 10. Rutgers - the pinjockey 10.65 Other Receiving Votes: Arizona State (Spicy McHaggis), Connecticut (SilverPhoenix), Kentucky (Danville Wrestling), Texas A&M (Secret Agent) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2006 Does defeating your opponent not matter in the rankings. The formula is as follows: 45% of the ranking is your win/loss record, 45% of the ranking is your correct pick %, and 10% is your correct pick % against (aka strength of schedule).

Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted September 24, 2006 Is Oregon State's horrible strength of schedule hurting them so much. Temple also played the pitiful Buffalo team. With there being 6 undefeated teams (or close to that), the 45% win/loss ranking is Oregon State: 1.0. Temple: 7.0. Therefore, there would need to be a large amount of people (at least 5) with the same pick percentage as Temple, for Oregon State to be below them. Oregon State whines to the media!

iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2006 Aw, I was sure I'd at least be in the "others receiving votes category" after three fairly decent wins.
