BCS Guru released his new standings, using all BCS data except for Peter Wolfe's rankings, as it is not available for the next two weeks. Using a median of dozens of other computer rankings instead is a fair estimate.

Don't look now, but the Notre Dame Fighting Irish are 4-1 for the 27th time in team history. The biggest difference between this 4-1 and every other 4-1 record the Irish have ever had? This time they're not ranked.
Every other season in which the Fighting Irish were either 4-1 or 3-1-1, ...

Most everyone thinks the PAC 10 will eventually expand, and that BYU and Utah are the most likely candidates. Could time be running out for the PAC 10's expansion options?
I don't see the PAC 10 forking out the money to buy out the exit clauses most teams now have with their conferences, due ...

Things are getting ugly for Tommy Bowden in Clemson.
One of the biggest Bowden backers, Mickey Plyler of Tigernet and South Carolina's sports radio 104.9 FM, has called for an end to the Tommy Bowden experiment.

BCS Guru is back, and my results last week differed from his due to a different value of the median and because I used the median for both missing computers and he uses 0 for one counting it as the low. This IMO understates the computer component relative to the actual BCS standings. The only ...

Ok, with a BCS non AQ conference member likely to get in and two possibly able to get in, is it possible for one to get to the national championship game ? This is the ultimate individual team BCS Busting accomplishment.
