Seattle's being a dork, but at the same time you're overstating things to suggest, "Oh! They dropped us! They must hate non-BCS schools!" It's not exactly a BCS/nonBCS thing. For example, if Kansas makes it up to the top five and then drops a game, they're going to be punished in the polls a lot more than Oklahoma or Texas would for dropping the same game. Not only are Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas all BCS schools, but they're all in the same conference. So it's not a BCS-nonBCS thing. It's just a preconception thing about which schools "should" be ranked where. |

You really cant argue the drop, Oregon has to jump BYU just based on common opponents, East Carolina also jumps BYU based on beating 2 top 20 teams in consecutive weeks.

That makes sense. I'm going to "think Bronco" and not sweat this too much. The answer is to go and perform better this week.

Let me add that we were tied with ASU and they beat Stanford 41-17 so I can see them jumping us as well. Thats 3 spots all justified.
