    BCS Standings: OU Leapfrogs Texas

    Danica McKellar - Kiss My Math

    The integrity of the BCS has once again sparked a wildfire of incendiary debates. If any year calls for change, it has been 2008. I don’t even think Danica McKellar (or Winnie Cooper if you prefer) can decipher the logic math behind BCS computer rankings.

    In the final regular season BCS poll, Oklahoma has jumped Texas for a spot in the Big 12 Championship game against Big 12 South’s Missouri. Looks like their 45-35 campaign was fruitless.

    1. Alabama, .9713
    2. Oklahoma, 9351
    3. Texas, .9223
    4. Florida, .8851
    5. USC, .8076
    6. Utah, .7844
    7. Texas Tech, .7805
    8. Penn State, .7373
    9. Boise State, .7034
    10. Ohio State, .6340

    So what does this mean going forward? Why bother to offer a prognostication? Now parity truly comes into play. If Florida manages to beat ‘Bama, will they leapfrog Texas despite the sizeable BCS average margin the ‘Horns hold over the Gators? Or will Texas get their chance to prove themselves against the Sooners once more?

    Personally, I’d love to see an all-Big 12 BCS title game. But an SEC/Big 12 matchup would be nice too…a chance to establish once and for all — which conference is the best conference?
