First BCS Rankings this year - 2005
Here they are, the much-awaited BCS rankings for 2005. This one includes the new Harris Poll. Not too many surprises. USC, TEXAS, and VA TECH hold down the top-3 spots. Texas Tech seems a bit high at #7, but that won't last after this week. And looky there, is that Nebraska at #23? Oregon chimes it at a very respectful #13. Still no sign of ILLINOIS.
On a slightly different note, I will no longer be forecasting separation Saturdays. After last week, I'm convinced they don't exist. It's a real mess at the top of the pick-em pile. This coming week (#8) looks equally as challenging. Lots of opportunity for regression, little room for advancement - in my opinion. More tough games on the agenda for 10/22.
Tennesse plays at Alabama.
Auburn collides with LSU in the bayou.
Nebraska takes the circus to Columbia to play Missouri.
TCU hits the road to take on Air Force.
Good Luck!
