The Anderson and Hester computer rankings along with the Peter Wolfe computer rankings are always the last to be released, fwiw.

Colley still has us at #1 in his poll.
Sagarin, Massey and Billingsley haven't been updated yet.

By my estimation, I don't see things changing at all this week with the way the early BCS projections look...which will likely have us in the top 2.

We are #3 in the Harris, #4 in the Coaches, #1 in 3 computer polls and #3 in the other. That, by my calculations, puts us right at #2-#3 in the BCS standings.

This all comes down to LSU...

I touched on this briefly a few weeks ago...

Seems like week 8 is when the first one was released last season

I didn't know when the BCS came out but I did have some idea of the way the rankings were determined. As I see it it comes down to how LSU is ranked in the computer polls, as to which of us in #2. Either way, whoever is #2 will be so by a slim margin.

Terry, can you or one of the guys post a sticky with links to the BCS contributing polls? It seems like that step would be heading off a lot of questions that will soon be flooding in. Thanks.

Yeah, I'll get to that...good idea.
