The official BCS standings made their way to the public Sunday evening, and the Boise St. Broncos were about where they should be. The Broncos entered the polls at No. 22, however they are getting a tiny bit more respect from the computers, compared to the human polls, and are No. 20 in their overall average.
The computers still do not have a lot of data, and that explains why Florida State and Clemson both have a .000 computer average -- as a reminder the highest and lowest score is tossed out.
There will be a bigger break down in the BCS tomorrow, but here some quick thoughts as they relate to Boise State (and maybe Nevada):
• There are no Big Ten teams in the standings, meaning if Boise State is going to make a BCS run they just need to be No. 16, at this time
• Three Big East teams are undefeated and that will not last.
• Boise State's destination will be the Orange Bowl. Fiesta Bowl gets first pick of at-large and will take Notre Dame if they are not (can't believe I am saying this) in The BCS title game.
