FCS BCS 11/3/11 and Projected Playoff Field

[UNIFanSince1983]

Okay so I haven't done this in a couple weeks, but I have been fairly busy. I am putting up my FCS BCS rankings. It finally has all the computer ratings so it should be a little better. I am also going to put what I predict the playoff field to be based on my current BCS standings.

Definitely BCS-ish - no love for the smaller conferences!

And way too much love for the Ivies that are included...but that's beating a dead horse with BCS computer calculations.

Well, great job! I think. However, unless App loses at Furman & GaSo beats Wofford, no way GaSo gets the AQ. Assuming App wins out (Furman, Elon & Western), then App gets the AQ if GaSo beats Wofford. BUT, if Wofford beats GaSo, then Wofford gets the AQ. I'd say the likely scenario is App > Furman & GaSo > Wofford, so App = AQ.

Doesn't really matter as they would all be in no matter what.

Well, yeah, I agree. But, hey, this is a message board. Arguing fine points of detail that don't really matter is expected.

Unless Wofford loses to UTC, then APP gets if they win out

Let's just simplify this. Go ahead and lose to Furman

App should have the AQ over GSU after beating them...
