Football Wrapup

The BCS standings came out today, with a surprise. Michigan, who lost yesterday to #1 Ohio State, remain at #2, which means that the BCS Championship game could be a rematch of yesterday.

Most sports consider head-to-head records in the rankings. For instance, the Padres and Dodgers ended the season with identical records, but the Padres are considered the division winners because of their head-to-head record.

However, Michigan is only .007 above USC in the rankings. If USC beats #5 Notre Dame next week, they could edge out Michigan (whose regular season is over). USC would also have to beat UCLA the following week.

As I predicted, the Patriots easily beat Green Bay, shutting them out 35-0. And Buffalo won by a field goal, beating Houston 24-21.
