Week 6 simulated BCS standings: Fresno State holds steady at No. 22

Fresno State has stalled in the latest mock BCS standings.

By Jeremy Mauss
Cary Edmondson-USA TODAY Sports

The official BCS standings will officially be released next week, so this is the final simulated numbers. Right now it is Fresno State who is the highest rated non-BCS team at No. 22, but the MAC's Northern Illinois is right on the Bulldogs tail at No. 23.

The computers like Northern Illinois by just a little bit, but once the high and low scores are removed then the two schools are pretty even. With no real strength of schedule left for either team on the schedule, each team will need to win and win big, plus hope teams above them fall. At this moment, No. 12 is likely where Fresno State, or any non-BCS team, will need to be to earn a BCS bid since Louisville is currently in the top 10.
