The first Bowl Championship Series standings of the college football season will come out Sunday night. Get ready to see Brad Edwards regularly on ESPN. He is the network's so-called "BCS guru."

Edwards already had projected that the top three teams in the standings Sunday will be Alabama, LSU and Oklahoma, in that order. On a teleconference today, Edwards said be thinks Oklahoma State will come in at No. 4.

So national semifinal games really could be in the picture. Alabama plays host to LSU on Nov. 5. Oklahoma visits Oklahoma State on Dec. 3.

This is my thoughts, that ESPN is trying to build us up for a fall. They don't like us much at all, so be leery of those goblins! I do believe they would get inside of our players head if they can. RTR!

I have thought that in the past, but not so much since Saban came along.  They love CNS.  Just look at all of the pro Alabama commercials they make.

ESPN loves ratings.  Talking about Alabama brings ratings.  Using the transitive property - ESPN loves to talk about Alabama.
