    Virginia Tech not in how?

    Okay, so we head into week 14 with BCS looking like this...

    #6 - Virginia Tech
    #7 - LSU
    #11 - Boston College
    #14 - Tennessee

    So Virginia Tech is ranked higher then LSU. They beat a team ranked higher than LSU's opponent by 14, while lower ranked LSU beats a lower ranked opponent by less (7).

    Am I the only one who sees a pretty ****ing huge problem with this?

    usckingsfan,
    When #1 and #2 lost, #3 Ohio State moved up to #1. Why didn't #4 Georgia move up to #3?

    I understand that it's not all their fault, but Hawaii played NO ONE. They fell behind 21-0 to a middle of the pack Pac10 team at home and had to rally to win.

    Does anyone in their right mind think they'd be undefeated if they'd had to play a SEC schedule???

    They're in a BCS game. That's all they deserve.

    When you see Hawaii play a good team you will see a disgrace. (Washington 21 points in the 1st quarter and they are a bad team.)

    If Hawaii played in the SEC they probaly would not be bowl eligible

    If Hawaii played any of these three teams they'd lose by 20.

    BCS has nothing to do with teams performances. It's all about the media. Who's is going to generate the most income for TV. That's why the formula is secret and noone knows how it works so that at the last minute the TV executives can come in and have a say on who's playing for the championship.
