Interesting to see is Kent State jump from 23 to 17...what that means, with the Big East Champion situation/ranking, is that (along with a win next week over #21 NIU in the MAC championship) with a UCLA loss (and possibly a Texas loss), Kent State could move up to 16 and claim an automatic qualifier to a BCS bowl


...So they're probably going to be huge Stanford fans next week

Oh man. FSU-Kent State in the Orange Bowl? Even better, Kent State as Orange Bowl champs after FSU decides not to show up (predictably)? I'm legitimately really excited about this possibility.

Louisville is out.

Louisville would still get the auto-bid if they beat Rutgers. Even if a non-BCS team finishes ahead of a BCS champ in the top 16 the BCS champ still gets a bid
