If they're not as good as the rankings, they'll get exposed pretty quickly when conference play begins (goes for us too).

Massey updated his BCS rankings.

USF #18.

He predicts USF has 54% chance of winning at Pitt. USF 30 Pitt 28.

He has USF going undefeated throughout the season.

According to BCS Central, Massey BCS is #17 not #18. It's a bit confusing, because he puts out different rankings.

9/26 preliminary pseudo-BCS rankings

AP Poll substitutes for Harris Poll; computer rankings from Billingsley, Colley, Massey, and Sagarin

FWIW, only ONE AP voter, Sam McKewon ranks ND (23rd). He ranked USF #14.

http://www.pollspeak.com/index.php?option=com_psreport&s=17&p=36&t1=72&t2=0&v=667&w=5&r=V&Itemid=3

I voted him "GOOD". Use your discretion.

Yeah but he dropped WV out of the top 25...

Well, how about voting for Scott Wolf from LA Daily News. He has USF #10 and WVU #8. BTW, he is the lead BAD voter. FWIW, our nemesis, David Just, has 29 "bad" votes and only 3 "good" votes, and still can't pull ahead of this guy.  ;)

Scott Wolf Voter Rating:   

 

Good:    37

Bad:    675

We are ranked just right... IF we can win Thursday night, like we should, then we will be ranked around #10 mark.

Depends on how impressive is our win and also whether ND wins big.

If those two things happen, I expect we will move up two or three spots in both polls.

We are over rated

I guess it depends on which ranking you are talking about. On the Massey comparison with 59 different computers reporting, USF is #14 which is in agreement with the Coaches poll.

We range from a high of #3 and a low of #38.

USF #3

USF # 38

Where would YOU rank USF?
