Making the final rankings of the 2012-2013 college basketball season is rather easy than making a top 25 during the season itself, as Louisville made it quite simple by beating Michigan in the NCAA Tournament final, claiming their third national championship, leading a group of four teams from the Big East in the final standings.

Getting wins on the road against big rivals continues to be an issue in the top conferences, but Indiana, for now, are holding on to the top spot after two huge victories, including against state rivals Purdue. Undefeated (in the ACC) Miami and Gonzaga (In the WCC) are also receiving top spot votes in the latest College Basketball rankings. More
The last time Michigan were sitting on top of the basketball world was 20 years ago, when the fab five were still playing. A number one ranking doesn’t mean they’re national champions just yet, but it does say people are thinking they’re closer than they have been in quite some time. More
Are things going to be different in 2013? Who knows. Still, it’s always fun speculation, and it’s not a really bold assumption saying Alabama will be the early season favorites; Texas A&M will be the closest thing to a challenger in the SEC, while Oregon, Stanford and Ohio State will also have hopes of winning a national title.

There weren’t that many questions left heading into the final weekend of the regular season in College Football, with one big mystery left to be solves – who joins Notre Dame in the BCS national championship game.

Notre Dame are number one in the polls and the computers, meaning they rule the BCS standings and won’t be moved, regardless of the results of the conference championship games next week. Alabama or Georgia have somewhat of a semifinal on their hands heading into the SEC title game, with the rest of the fog mostly regarding BCS bowl slots. More
For the first time this season, a new number one. The Week 10 BCS Standings feature the Kansas State Wildcats as the number one team in the nation, with Oregon coming in at second. What does this mean for Notre Dame, also undefeated? Unless Oregon and/or Kansas State lose, there’s a very small chance the Fighting Irish make the national championship game. More
While there’s no change in the top spot of the BCS rankings, as Alabama beat LSU and put their toughest hurdle behind them and Kansas State kept their second spot after a win over Oklahoma State, Oregon leaped over Notre Dame after a big win over USC, while the Fighting Irish struggled to overcome Pittsburgh in three overtimes.

The SEC continues to dominate with a record five teams in the top 10, but it’s clear that Alabama are a leg ahead of the rest, dominating the number 1 spot. Kansas State, Notre Dame and LSU (without even playing) all enjoyed Florida losing to Georgia and falling to #7, while Oregon kept their #4 spot in the standings after beating one of the weakest teams in the nation.
