Just watched the unveiling of the BCS Top-10 on FOX:
1) Ohio State
2) Southern California
3) Michigan
4) Auburn
5) West Virginia
6) Florida
7) Louisville
8) Notre Dame
9) Texas
10) California
As usual, the opening BCS standings are strange at best. Top 3 seem logical, or least not too out of whack. Though USC may be a little high with how they have struggled all year to put teams away.
Auburn at #4 is a bit of a head scratcher after losing to Arkansas, even with the win over Florida. Though they are only .003 ahead of WVU.
West Virginia and Louisville are not suprising because of the low strength of schedule, but that will change as they play each other and have tougher schedules down the stretch.
Texas at #9 seems a bit severe given that they are #5 in most of the polls and they have played a decently strong schedule.
Things will sort themselves out as the top teams match up and conference chamionships thin the field. Auburn looks to have the inside track if somehow only one team goes undefeated.
