Cuban Linx finally lost but he of course still holds the best record overall so it should come as no surprise he is still #1. The big winner this week was teke184 who jumps to a strong #2 after a big week. Edwin MacPhisto also made a big jump back into the Top 10. The most hated man contest is probably AboveAverage484 at this point as he loses again but again isn't hurt much, dropping two spots as he continues to pick well and is now #1 all by himself in correct picks. He actually is tied with Mecca in their BCS rating but Mecca is ranked higher due to having a better record. I've won five in a row but I'm really getting lucky as I drop two spots this week. I suppose the biggest CONTROVERSY~ is UTBroward dropping out of the Top 10 despite winning but I have good news for him and others after the rankings as I will discuss the bowl picture.

1. South Carolina - Cuban Linx 3.0

 

2. LSU - teke184 3.8

3. Nebraska - Mecca 5.9

4. N.C. State - AboveAverage484 5.9

5. Syracuse - CanadianChris 6.65

6. Virginia - Edwin MacPhisto 7.1

7. Georgia Tech - iggymcfly 7.75

8. Oklahoma - Secret Agent 7.8

9. Boise State - Vitamin X 7.9

10. Stanford - Bored 8.05

 

Others Receiving Votes: Florida State (King), Miami of Ohio (Hawk 34), Rutgers (the pinjockey), Texas (UTBroward)

 

 

Briefly before I get to the bowls, for the conference championships things are way too up in the air to even bother going over tiebreak scenerios until next week. Cuban Linx and Mecca are the only two who have clinched spots in their respective conferences.

 

Since we are now down to two weeks left in the regular season it is definately time to take a look at the bowl picture. The way it works here is very similar to real life. 7+ wins will guarentee you a bowl, 6 wins will make you eligible but you may have to sweat a little. There are 18 bowl bids all together and every conference has three bowl tie ins but of course there is no guarentee they will all be filled by their conference as both Southeastern Seven and the Pac-8 don't have three bowl eligible teams yet. Here's a breakdown of where everyone who is still alive stands:

 

Locked In

Boise State

LSU

Nebraska

South Carolina

Stanford

Syracuse

Texas

 

Eligible

Buffalo

Florida State

Georgia Tech

Hawaii

Kent State

Miami of Ohio

N.C. State

Oklahoma

Virginia

 

On the Bubble

Arizona

Ball State

Michigan

Rutgers

Temple

UCLA

USC

UTEP

Washington

 

Hanging by a Thread

Florida

Notre Dame

Oregon

San Diego State

Tennessee

 

And as a reminder here's the bowls and their tie ins:

 

Bored Bowl: BCS #1 vs. BCS #2

The Synagogue Bowl presented by Al Jazerra: Pac-8 #1/BCS vs. Big 8 #1/BCS

The SWF.com Dust Bowl: BCS vs. BCS

 

Deadspin.com Barbaro Memorial Bowl: SE7 #2 vs. Big 8 #2

Covers.com Degenerate Bowl: WAC #2 vs. Big MAC #2

KFC PETA Bowl: Pac-8 #2 vs. Big 8 #3

ConED Blackout Bowl: SE7 #3 vs. WAC #3

Ex-Lax Toilet Bowl: Big MAC #3 vs. Pac-8 #3

Trent Boyette’s Texas Chili Bowl: At-large vs. At-large

 

If we end up with a scenerio where I can't find a spot for a 7 win team, I would give up my spot or add a 10th bowl.

I put up one of my best weeks and still lose 10-9 :(

 

I feel your pain. I had it until late in the 4th quarter of the Alabama game and lost the Navy-Notre Dame game in OT. It just hasn't been my year with the close games (ex. Alabama-Arkansas this year) but it happens. I'll enjoy playing the role of spoiler over the next several weeks with my 7 losses. ;)
