The BCS is out, and -- WHAT?!

The BCS polls are out, as was noted yesterday, and Log's Blog had a chance to breakdown the rankings, and it turns out that an old favorite here at the Times is ranked # 18 in one computer poll. That's right, North Warhawks State is the #18 team in all the land according to Jeff Saarin's adjusted rankings. People seemed shocked by this, naturally, but is it more preposterous that the Bison are #18 in a computer poll or that South Florida is #2 in a couple of the human polls?

except on that USA Today link, they're ranked number 53. Saturday's game should be a good one.

Rachel: In the poll that the BCS uses from Sagarin, they take out margin of victory, which is the ELO_CHESS column in red, where they are 18th
