For the second week in a row, Florida has been ranked at the top of the BCS pile (the pile being an arbitrary pile of crap).

I find myself loathing the BCS a little less this week, though. The BCS has the not-so-glamorous Iowa Hawkeyes above the glitz of the USC Trojans, whereas the AP voters say USC is better than the undefeated Hawkeyes. Many attribute Big Ten flops in recent years to why voters are less likely to vote a Big Ten team to the top, even though the Big Ten isn’t the weakling it’s made out to be. People seem to forget that two years ago, a mediocre Michigan team took out Tebow’s Gators in Coach Carr’s last game. The media didn’t go off on how mighty the Big Ten was and how pathetic the SEC was. Instead it was brushed under the rug in order to focus on games where the SEC did pound the Big Ten.

I’m not saying that the Big Ten is better than the SEC or the Trojans’ PAC 10 for that matter. But I am saying that the computers have it right in looking at the undefeated record before the history. Now Cincinnati needs to get some love from the BCS. They’re just as undefeated as Iowa, after all.
