I just don't get why LSU is ranked so high...

ASU wasn't that good.

BCS= BULL CRAP SYSTEM that's why

Its too early in the season for the computer rankings to be anywhere near correct. The accuracy of the algorithms they use gets more accurate the more games are played. Thats why the BCS and some computer rankings don't release their polls until later in the season.

Yeah, thats definitely a load...USC #3 is ridiculous...everyone knows they're #1, and FSU #5 is also outrageous.

LSU should be down on their knees thanking God for the amount of help he has given them against Pac-10 teams over the last two seasons. He knows as well as the rest of us they didn't play well enough on their own to win either of them...

and we are... That's part of the Catholic tradition. To kneel when giving thanks for anything... food... mesage boards... football victories... you name it.
