Don’t count SEC out of BCS title hunt

Don’t count SEC out of BCS title hunt

The first BCS standings will be released Sunday night on ESPN, and it’s unlikely that an SEC team will be in the top 5.

ESPN’s Brad Edwards unveiled his projected BCS standings earlier this week, and LSU was the highest SEC team at No. 6. Auburn was No. 8 and Alabama No. 10.

Even though Boise State was No. 1 in Edwards’ projected BCS standings for this first week, he still thinks Oregon (No. 2) and Ohio State (No. 5) are in the best shape.

Don’t write off the SEC teams, either, even though they have some ground to make up this second half of the season.
