POLL EXPLANATION & ABOUT THE BCS: The Harris Interactive Poll, USA Today Coaches Poll and computer rankings each comprise one-third of the BCS Standings. To derive the percentages, each team’s total points in the Harris and USA Today polls are divided by the maximum possible points (2,600 for Harris and 1,550 for USA Today). The computer rankings percentage is calculated by dropping the highest and lowest ranking for each team and then dividing the remaining total by 100 (the maximum possible points). The BCS Average is calculated by averaging the percentage totals of the Harris Interactive Poll, USA Today Poll, and computer rankings. The teams’ BCS Averages are ranked to produce the BCS Standings. The six computer ranking providers are Anderson & Hester, Richard Billingsley, Wes Colley, Kenneth Massey, Jeff Sagarin and Peter Wolfe. Each computer ranking provider accounts for schedule strength within its formula.
The BCS is a five-game arrangement for post-season college football that is managed by the 10 Football Bowl Subdivision conferences and institutions. Its purpose is to match the top two teams in a bowl game and to create exciting matchups in four other games. The No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the Dec. 8 BCS standings will play in the Vizio BCS National Championship Game on Jan. 6, 2014 in Pasadena, Calif. The winner of the game will be presented the Coaches Trophy, emblematic of the national championship. For more information, visit www.bcsfootball.org or www.facebook.com/EveryGameCounts.
