USF jumped from $46 to #16 and our schedule strengh is #7.

WE should rise in the BCS poll.

It is starting to look like playing Penn St and Miami was the best thing that could have ever happened to USF. The reason I state that is that USF could get the tie breakers over UL and WVU if we all finish in a three way tie because of our higher BCS ranking. Lets hope that UCF, Penn St and Miami continue to win to help out our BCS ranking.

Even better is that the BCS computer rankings use Sagarin's ELO-CHESS ranking where we are #14 and UL is #20!

ELO-CHESS has us ranked higher than schools like Tennessee, Boston College, Wisconsin, Texas Tech & UCLA - not bad company to be in!

Also, according to Sagarin, we should favored by 15 over Pitt.

The year is young.  If the teams wins, everything else will take care of itself and tiebreakers won't even be needed.

Sagarin's BCS ranking (the one he sends to the BCS for official purposes) is purely based on wins & losses, right now he has us ranked #14 in that ranking system.
