At least in the BCS, where it counts! The computers continue to love us. For now. Unless Tech loses to Oklahoma on Nov. 22, No. 3 is where the Longhorns will sit through the end of the season. Then, if Florida, as expected, beats Bama, Tech will be No. 1 and Florida will be No. 2 and they will play for the championship in Miami. Then all that No. 3 will be worth will be a bowl game. The only hope, I suppose, would be that Tech would have to play Missouri for the Big 12 championship–and might lose then. But that’s unlikely at the moment. That Missouri could beat Tech, I mean.
UPDATE: The daily’s Suzanne Halliburton reminds that, if Tech loses one before the end of the season, the Big 12 South team with the highest ranking in the BCS would play for the conference championship–which could be the Longhorns. But, at this point, that’s a big if.
