Rice fans are conceding that the game is going to be in Huntington after that poll came out....They seem to be a group of fans with class and intelligence....

10 votes in Harris. Rice zero. Done Deal.

[goherd24]

Sturt, each of the voter polls are weighted 1/3 in the total score. We basically get a score in 1/3 while rice doesn't and the computers alone are fairly close. Yes, we will host. Celebrate man, be happy!

[Luke80]

Sturt, this is the projection based upon what we know.  i am not Chuck Landon but i would say this is a done deal

CBS has update with Harris results.......we are 33 rice is 56.........no way no how rice to get close.......at all.

[goherd24]

I know it. Source if being a major college football fan? That work.

If not, Google bcs formula, the harris, USA today and computer rankings make up the 3 parts to the bcs average. Just saw we have 10 harris poll votes as well. And rice 0. We should be around #32 in the BCS average with rice being in the 50's.

Trust me sturt. Buy your tickets after they post to the website tonight and be happy

The Coaches' Poll is weighted 1/3, the Harris Poll 1/3, and the computer ratings average (four of the six) is 1/3.  With Rice receiving no votes in either poll, and Rice's average from last week (around 54), Rice would have to jump nearly 30 positions in the average to pass Marshall.  Given that Rice played a team rated lower than their own rating, it is mathematically impossible (IMO) for Rice to pass Marshall.  Just like Marshall, Rice needed human votes - and didn't get any.

But, 8:30 pm will be here soon enough.  :)

Oh lord he's back... Arguing. Imagine that. Feeling superior and asking for links and sources, the two things he is the best at. I think gb60 likes reading novels for posts. You can find him camping out on the smack board.

It's being projected that Rice computer average this week is 53, while ours is 63.75.   Those votes are HUGE.

Indeed.   ;D

Big... with all due respect... emphasis on "due"... do you ever have anything to actually ADD to a conversation, or do you just go from thread to thread taking shots at people you evidently don't like?

There's nothing implicitly "feeling superior" in saying "I wonder if there might be some bad karma" here.

There's nothing implicitly "feeling superior in saying "Can I get a source on that?"

And... "You can find him camping out on the smack board?"... ummmmm... really?... cause, as I go over there, I see your username with regularity there as I scan the threads... but... little-ol-meeeee?

March 2013... there's one... oh... and, February 2012, there's another.

(Oops... sorry to bring up anything factual... I know that evidently sends a big-ol-hillbilly-burr up your azz.)

To me, I can't decide if "tedious" or "juvenile" more describes you... which might be why, when I try to imagine the face behind the username, Scott Farkus... complete with raccoon cap... comes to mind.

Where do you go online to buy the tickets?

[exanimate]

Where do you go online to buy the tickets?

If you are a season ticket holder, log in to your account at herdzone.com. Click on Season Ticket Renewals.You will see a link that says CUSA. Your seats should be reserved. You were supposed to reserve by Friday so not sure if they are still available or not.

[goherd24]

Yeah. Will just have to wait until tonight after its official

[GoHerd2010]

Another question I am seeing on twitter. Students will have to probably pay the $25 for a ticket. I'd say the ticket office better discount those so they can get as many students as possible in the stands.

Not sure they can. More than likely the conference sets prices and policies.

This would suck!

Surely not. That would definitely hurt the attendance.
