Polls, rankings and bowl projections

Corso is the Charles Barkley of college football. People like him because he's entertaining-not because of his deep analysis. Herbstreit and Howard both picked us today.

I think Corso's on the air because ESPN is afraid of a lawsuit if they dumped him. I used to love the guy, but now he's just hard to watch. I had stopped watching ESPN long ago when I dumped cable (pre-stroke), but now he e.g. uh-huh uh-huhs Herbstreit thinking he's backing up his point, but Herby has moved on. To me it's like the guy who used to do radio here for the station that carries NPR. This guy had a mucous drainage problem that was disgusting to listen to, as he tried to talk through it. Some people just shouldn't be on the air. JMO

See that number off the right that says 18/UR? That is the highest any single coach ranked us, along with the lowest ranking by a single voter.

Anomalies in the list:
4-2 Stanford: 7/24 (lost badly to Utah)
4-2 Auburn: 7/21 (lost to unranked Miss St)
5-0 West Virginia 6/20 (in fairness, they haven't looked dominant at times - like yesterday - but 20th?)
5-1 LSU 6/24 (after losing to Florida yesterday)
5-1 Texas 14/NR (unranked after knocking off previously unbeaten Oklahoma?)

There should be some type of accountability for these crazy outliers.

let's get a win over usc. we'll make a big jump in the polls. this is where the politics of this stuff can start to help us. p12 voters want to prop the p12. if we are unbeaten and headed into the uw game, we are going to pick up a ton of votes in the footprint. that way, the uw game will be even bigger, and if we don't win that one, we won't fall as far. we've got some poll momentum.

Either way, need UDub to crush Oregon...not like, beat them because they fumbled while trying to run out the clock with the lead.
