Not much time left for Boise State to get the equalizer. The Lady Broncos beat Nevada just one week ago, but none of that means anything now.

Boise State #19 in Projected BCS Standings
The BCS Standings are actually fascinating to watch if you know what to look for; it's really too bad they are shelving the computers in favor of a backroom committee. The system in two years will be far less transparent and far less enjoyable for fans to follow.
One thing to look for is the difference in the three components. Naturally, the two polls pretty much mirror each other because humans are prone to emotion and thus built-in biases. But if a team is ranked right, all three components will match up rather nicely. So when you see numbers beside a team like Florida State, you can easily spot that something is amiss. Numbers that different mean that at least one of those components and more likely two are dreadfully off. If Florida State is truly a Top 10 team, they would have to play about three more ranked teams to bring that computer rating up when the truth is, they have at most one (Clemson) on their schedule. You will also note that that same team, Clemson, has zero computer points (They did get rated in one of the six computers.)
What this means is that Florida State is being artificially propped up by the voters when they haven't played a schedule deserving of a high ranking. Their schedule strength will go up as they sift through the ACC, but it won't approach Top 10 in the computers. Often what will happen is the team ranked too high will lose somewhere down the road, bringing the human polls more in line with the computers. And, the computer rating will go up somewhat (as long as they keep winning) to get closer to the polls.
Obviously if some teams are overrated you will have the exact opposite situation for other teams. Case in point--Rutgers, which is #10 in the computers but much lower in the polls. Rutgers has played a much-more worthy schedule in the tough Big East than either of the two ACC teams. It doesn't mean they'll finish the season higher--they still have to win, but again it points out that something has to give. Another such example is Texas Tech.
These projections are slightly different than the early morning projections, and differences of less than 12 points reflects the margin of error, so the official BCS Standings will deviate somewhat from the projections shown below. They are simply meant to give you an idea what the official Standings look like.

Boise State Officially #22 in BCS Standings
As Blue Through and Through posted this morning, Boise State is #22 in the Official BCS Standings, although those who didn't read this blog didn't know that until just now on ESPN. Know before millions of people who have to withstand watching ESPN--check out this web site regularly!
Boise State #22 in Projected BCS Standings
Three things to watch:
1) The race for the top "non-BCS", which Boise State finally won't have to put up with next year. Currently, Boise State is #22, Ohio is #25 and Louisiana Tech #32.
2) The race between Boise State and Michigan. Currently, Boise State is #22 and Michigan is #24.
3) The race between Boise State and the top ACC team. Right now, voters have artificially propped up both Florida State and Clemson. Note the huge discrepancy between both of the poll percentages and the Computer Composite for both Florida State and Clemson. At least one of those numbers is way, way off and as the season progresses, the three numbers will come towards each other. Currently, Florida State is #14, Clemson is #18 and Boise State #22.
1. Alabama 100.00% + 100.00% + 92.00 = 292.00

Boise State Moves Up to #19 in Projected Computer Composite
Two of the six computer ratings that the BCS uses to compute its BCS Standings have not released reports yet this year. They are Wolfe and Anderson/Hester, and they will release their first ratings tonight when the Official BCS Standings are unveiled. So the following projected Computer Composite only takes into account Sagarin, Billingsley, Colley and Massey, the four that have released ratings on their web sites. The Sagarin ratings are official; the other three are projected based on last week's ratings, this week's results, and historical treatment of those results.
(You will notice that the #1 team in the Computer Composite is the same team that has been #1 in Blue Through and Through's Top 25 College Football Teams since Week Two.)

Boise State #18 in Computer Composite
For the first time this season, we have all four computers relevant and unbiased. The BCS Standings incorporate six computers, with the high ranking and row ranking for each team thrown out. To simulate this, we take the four existing scores as one half of the computer composite, and average that with the two middle scores doubled (throwing out the high and the low). This gives us our best and most educated estimate of the true Computer Composite when it is unveiled next week using all six computers:
1. Notre Dame (21 + 22 + 25 + 24) = (92 + (46 x 2 = 92))/2 = 92.00
