The official BCS rankings to not come out until this evening at 8:15 p.m. ET on ESPN's BCS Countdown show, but I went ahead and am going to predict what the first BCS rankings will be. However, before we get to that here is the projected top-10 rankings from last week via the BCS Guru.
Full chart is after the jump due to its size.

The changes for certain will be that the Michigan Wolverines will drop down due to their loss to the Michigan St. Spartans and look for the Oregon Ducks to get back into the top-10 after their quality win over the Arizona St. Sun Devils. Outside of that the rankings should look fairly similar this evening. The computers still like Boise State more than Wisconsin and that should stay the same this week and for at least one more week Boise will be ahead of Wisconsin.
Here is my opinion on what the first BCS rankings will be.
- LSU
- Alabama
- Oklahoma
- Oklahoma Sate
- Boise State
- Wisconsin
- Stanford
- Clemson
- Oregon
- Arkansas
So, we will see how close I am to predicting the BCS, with some help from the BCS Guru who has last weeks numbers in place.
However here is the projected standings from BCS Guru:
1. Alabama
2. LSU
3. Oklahoma
4. Oklahoma State
5. Boise State
6. Wisconsin
7. Clemson
8. Stanford
9. Arkansas
10. South Carolina
