If you want to know what is wrong with the BCS, you have to look no further than the Northern Illinois computer rankings. Their computer average has them at 9.00, ranked above Wash. State, Nebraska, LSU, and Mich. State. Northern Illinois is having a good year, and they even have an upset under their belt. But lets be honest, do they really deserve to be ranked 6th on two computer polls, 7th on one, and 8th on two more? Are the sports writers and coaches all wrong about NIU? Are the computers right, by ranking them as a Top 10 team?

Of course none of this matters right now, because the only BCS poll that counts is the last one. Still it's nice to know just how bad the BCS is going to screw things up this year.
