After the Sooners spanked the Red Raiders 65-21, they leapfrogged Florida from #5 to #3 in the BCS standings.
Alabama still sits at #1, Texas at #2, Florida #4, and USC rounds out the top five.
Even though the AP and USAToday polls put Florida at #2 and #3 respectively, they are still dragging in the BCS for some stupid reason. . .despite the fact that they beat Citadel 70-13. Come on. Those are soldiers. Florida essentially beat the United States of America! Surely that counts for something??
I'm assuming Florida's difficulty lies with the "strength of schedule" component, and I'm really hoping that improves once they face off against Florida State and then Alabama (even though Florida State is having a lackluster year). With two Ws in those games, the best the Gators can do is cross their fingers that the computer puts them in the top two. If not, prepare for more BCS drama-drama - not only from myself, but from the talking heads as well. Ugh.
In case you're bored, I stumbled upon this article from the LA Times which explains why Obama will solve the crisis in the Middle East and stop ice caps from melting before successfully lobbying for a college football playoff. Great.

I watched the game last night and that was something else, wasn't it?! I really hated to see TT lose so badly... I was really hoping for one hell of a fight, you know?
