The Coaches' Poll is 1/3 of the aggregate score.

Last week in the computer rankings, Bama has 5 twos & 1 three while Okie had 1 two & 5 threes

 

RK TEAM AVG AVG A&H RB CM KM JS PW %
1 LSU 1.0000 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1.000
2 Alabama .9551 2 3 2 3 2 2 2 .950
3 Oklahoma State .8712 3 2 3 2 3 3 3 .930

 

Jerry Palm is projecting three of those to flip to Okie.  (Sagarin is already out.)  That would give Okie a 0.0200 lead in the computer component. also 1/3 weighting of the aggregate score.

3 Oklahoma State 0.9305 2630 0.9148 3 2 2 2 2 3 2.25

Finally, Palm projects a 0.0243 lead in the Harris poll, the final 1/3 of the BCS score.

Now if a fourth computer poll flips to Okie (for an Okie computer lead of 0.04), and the Harris comes in tighter than a 0.0183 lead, then Okie will surpass Bama.
