BCS Computer Rankings Week Two: Oklahoma State Scores Perfect Support From Computers
Oklahoma State takes all of the computer love this week, finishing first in five of the six computer rankings, and second in the sixth (Billingsley).
LSU and Alabama have plenty of support, sure, but Oklahoma State brings a different level of domination.
Here are the rankings of the six BCS computers:

Give me a break.......Oklahoma State is a joke....and if anyone thinks they can hang with an SEC team like LSU or Alabama....they are greatly mistaken....all they have is their quarterback....their defense is very questionable and never consistent.....so what is up with the computer love???????????????

Massey's ratings are correct. Make sure you're hitting the "BCS" column on his rankings page (http://masseyratings.com/rate.php?lg=cf) to get the accurate listings.

Sagarin's ratings are correct. Make sure you're looking at the "ELO_CHESS" column when looking at his rankings page (http://www.usatoday.com/sports/sagarin/fbt11.htm)

@Sharon - You sound like the typical college football fan who hasn't watched the Cowboys play all season.
Sure, we have a mature 28-year-old quarterback who is calm under pressure, but we also have ten receivers with over 100 yards for him to throw to. Additionally, we have 2 running backs that average over 5.7 yards per carry and a combined 19 TDs.
Our defense might be questionable when judged by the stat of "Total Defense", but that stat is skewed when you consider that we pulled starters with over 5 minutes left in the half on one occassion, and two others mid-way through the 3rd quarter. What is consistent is our defense's ability to create turn-overs, averaging over 3 per game.

Well see Sharon, lots of ball to be played yet, but OSU strength of schedule is up there. And I know you have probably never watch a game but if you had you'd be reasonably If not fully impressed. One thing you couldn't know is they are consistent, deep, and extremely fit. I don't think SEC is so strong this year, and OSU might just ruin your day in the near future.

Well, I don't believe OSU is a 'joke' but it's incorrect to say SEC isn't strong. LSU is dominate. Alabama is very appropriately placed in number 2. My instincts tell me OSU will end the regular season with a loss which will probably make this conversation irrelevant.
