In what poll? AP? AP doesn't count in the BCS. FYI, MU is #6 in the BCS. ;) But in regard to the intent of your post, yes, MU is ranked higher. Perhaps the Orange did not feel that MU was really any better than KU. Yeah, I know they won the head to head. I'm not saying I agree. Just speculating on what they might have been thinking.

VT is a top 40 team.

We're still laughing. Go Hokies!!!

I'd wish you luck against the 109s, but you won't need it.

That's apparently what happened. But it shouldn't. Hence my railing against the system and the bowl reps.

If that's how it works then, if MU ever has a chance to run up the score on KU, don't complain.

Oh, I don't disagree. I don't think it is fair. That is exactly why we need a playoff.

They're up to 74 in the final SOS rankings. MU's up to 3. :)

Virginia Tech is 4.

So I just bought this house and I live next door, here in Denver, to a smokin hot KU alum. I am a VT alum...how can I work this to my advantage?

Unfortunately, you're only the 109s' SECOND quality opponent. Were that not the case, it would be us. We all know what happens when they play good teams.

The good news? You can go ahead and order that Orange Bowl championship t-shirt now.

I wonder how many years it's been since they played a defense like VT has.

Yep. There are several MU that have to make themselves feel better about this by dogging KU. I find it amusing. And I even admit that MU got screwed over in this deal.
