Jax, the new Sagarin's are out. Ohio State now has played the toughest schedule and is ranked fourth overall.
We also are now ranked nearly 10 spots higher at #7 in the ELO rating that counts in the BCS. We should rise substantially in the BCS, and hopefully that will influence the human pollsters.
Now, here's what I am wondering. If we're the only one loss team, then we get the BCS bowl as Big Ten champions. If we and Penn State win out, do we have a chance for an at-large berth?
