Texas should be higher but thats my homer ideas lol...also i think West Virginia will b in the BCS Champ.

[BIG BLUE DEFENSIVE END]

Snake in the grass, alright.

Either OU has got to be lower or UT higher. OU will have some issues on the defensive side of the ball. The Offense will be ok.
Their line is good. But they would not be accused of the run and gun 50 points a game offense. So they need to stop'em some and that is going to be their weak spot methinks. I believe UT should be number 6 maybe 5. That would put OU about right.

Please put SC on the cover

They won't get the bid to play in the title game if they are undefeated, simply because they play in the big east. If at least one of the major conference (SEC, Pac-10, Big XII, Big 10) has a one loss team and there is another undefeated, the SOS will come into play and WVU will get left out.
