Earlier today, Illinois beat #1 Ohio State on the road 28-21. Illinois controlled the ball for the final 8+ minutes in the game. Looks like the new #1 and #2 will be LSU and Oregon.

I'm still a Sooners fan.

Anyways, the whole ranking concept in college football is ridiculous. It's the same in the CHL (Canadian Hockey League), they rank teams 1 through 10 based on little more than records. It's flattering, but by no means indicative of much.

I agree, it is ridiculous. They need to scrap the BCS and go with a playoff system. There's so many one loss teams this year, you can't honestly say the two teams that will be playing for the national title deserve it more than the other one loss teams. Also, Florida being ranked higher than USC when Florida has 3 losses, and USC has 2 losses is a joke.

Yea didn't USC win like 50-some games in a row or something stupid like that? And they're not ranked the #1 football program in the country. Don't make much sense.

No. They lost 1 or 2 last year, and 2 this year. I just don't get how a 3 loss team can be ranked higher than a 2 loss team. USC's two losses are by a total of 8. Florida's 3 losses are by a total of 19.
