The initial BCS rankings of the 2012 football season are out and, not surprisingly, Alabama is ranked No. 1. The undefeated Crimson Tide (6-0) is also ranked at the top of the AP and USA Today poll.

But what about the other teams?

Oregon, which is currently ranked No. 2 in both the AP and USA Today poll, came in at No. 3 in the BCS. The second best team in the country according to the computers and the polls? Florida.
