Whats the bigger upset.......

[VolinArizona]

is it because i'm right or because i accidentally put ONE extra letter where it didn't go?

i don't think i need to repeat the 'when they attack your spelling...' comment here.

sorry.

I was a little harsh, but try harder to spell correctly.

The Sagarin rankings were around before the BCS, so your argument doesn't make a lot of sense, really.

 

[doozer]

this is true, but before the BCS what was the Sagarin really used for?

 

[volwarren]

Go Navy

 

[hohenfelsvol]

Navy would be biggest upset.
Gamecocks second
UGA third

 

[jakez4ut]

Navy would be biggest upset.

The same thing its for now ... predictive power rankings. It's not a poll, per se. A poll, IMO, is a ranking that is based on what a team has accomplished. A power ranking is more for predicting a current game's finish right now.

That's why I'm not sure I like power ratings being in the BCS.

Navy winning would be outrageous.

But you need to take down even the hint of a possibility of Florida not winning from this thread. Florida will win. Period.

well, I guess it's official now...especially since the game hasn't been played yet. btw, is there a chance you are a fan of the Florida Gators?

Lou Holtz claimed that it wouldn't be an upset when South Carolina beats the Vols.

ND over Navy is the longest winning streak in the nation, so I'd say that would be the biggest upset, hands-down. Number two is UT over UK. Not so long ago it was UT over Vandy.

SC beating us would be the biggest upset for me, but in the entire picture it has to be Navy over ND.

 

[therealUT]

Minnesota over Tosu will be the biggest upset of the weekend (and the year.)

 

[hmanvolfan]

The Sagarin ratings-Worth exactly as much as the paper they're printed on.

I have the Sagarin ratings printed on my toilet tissue. Nuff said..

 

[kptvol]

Minnesota over Tosu will be the biggest upset of the weekend (and the year.)

I will consider that game an upset if Minnesota keeps it within 30.

 

[TennVols423]

i would definatly say Navy or ND.......but golly would i love to see the gator go down

OSU wins 44-0. Hmmmm...

 

[cack]

but how about OSU over So. Cal.

You invite us Vols over to cockytalk then ban us for nothing?

Which would be nothing. They're on a computer.

Navy beating ND would probably be the biggest upset of the last decade at this point. 43 straight wins over the Midshipmen for the Domers.

USC has sealed biggest upset of the day.

We're losing by 3 ... fairweather.

 

[tvolsfan]

We're losing by 3 ... fairweather.

I meant Southern Cal.

 

[VolinArizona]

I meant Southern Cal.

Ah ... plus, you aren't fairweather, I know that

 

[tvolsfan]

Ah ... plus, you aren't fairweather, I know that

Thanks, I should have been more clearer.

I think that because they were unbeaten, no matter what that was the biggest upset of the day.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Navy over Notre Dame would clearly been the biggest.

 

[BigOrangeNation1]

How could it not be Navy over Notre Dame when ND has the longest active streak of winning over one team.
