Sooners No. 10 Heading Into Bedlam
November 27, 2011 | Football
NORMAN, Okla. -- Oklahoma landed at No. 10 in the latest BCS standings released Sunday evening. The Sooners (9-2) were ranked No. 10 in the Harris Poll and No. 11 in the Coaches' Poll.
OU was No. 13 in the AP but that poll is not utilized by the BCS.
Oklahoma has defeated three teams in the BCS Top 25 including No. 11 Kansas State, No. 22 Texas and No. 25 Missouri. The Sooners lost to No. 17 Baylor. Oklahoma State is ranked No. 3.
The Sooners travel to Stillwater to play the Cowboys in the Bedlam Game Saturday night. The winner will claim the Big 12 championship and the league's BCS berth. The game will kick shortly after 7 p.m. on ABC.
The BCS rankings are determined by three components: the Harris Interactive poll, the USA Today coaches poll and the average of six computer rankings. Each component counts one-third toward a team's BCS score.
The six computer rankings are Anderson & Hester, Richard Billingsley, Colley Matrix, Kenneth Massey, Jeff Sagarin and Peter Wolfe. Each accounts for schedule strength in its formula. The highest and lowest ranking for each team is dropped, and the remaining four are added and divided by 100 (the maximum possible points) to produce a computer rankings percentage.
