What I don't understand is how can Baylor who is 8-3 be ahead of teams like us who are 9-3? Doesn't make sense to me. Is it all based on points?

Sorry for the repeat! I didn't see the other post on the AP Top 25!

It's probably because baylor beat Oklahoma who was #5 i think. Iowa state will beat them though IMO.

Probably because Baylor would beat NU this year. RGIII is the best player in college football and he and Wright would run circles around NU's secondary.

It is a coin flip with Baylor.

They beat #5 and #14 teams, while we beat #11 and #12. (One of ours was on the road).

Both teams got blown out playing away at two ranked teams.

Computers love Baylor (offense) and they will edge us in the BCS.

Look at Clemson. Oh my, how they have fallen hard!

This is our highest ever ranking going into bowl season under Bo. I think.

Edit: Nevermind, last season we were 18th. We aren't limping along like last season, though.

Weren't we like #18 or #17 against washington?

Nebraska comes in at #19 BCS. KSU still at #11.... I hope Iowa State absolutely kicks the s*** out of them this weekend. They don't deserve that ranking at all.

How the hell is Missouri #25 in the BCS rankings? they have 5 losses!

I believe if Oklahoma State beats Oklahoma this Saturday, they will be going to the MNC.

Edit: Nevermind, I just the the numbers...it's going to be Alabama-LSU...yipee

Why don't they? They have two losses, to the #9 and #3 ranked teams in the nation. Compare them to the teams ranked around them and they deserve it just fine.

Yeah, Mizzou is solid at #25. But Texas at #22? WTH is that? Mizzou beat Texas. Heck. Granny Snyder and the fighting mildcats beat UT. The Whorns are a four loss team without one quality win on their schedule. And they are 22nd? That's just f'd up man.

Wisconsin should be ranked higher....like top ten high..I'm thinking at least 7 or 8.
