WASEAN (pronounced Wah-Shawn) is a college football team rating system. The acronym stands for Winning% Algorithm for Scoring ExpectAtioN. The name not only describes the system, but honors Toledo's star running back during the 1990s, Wasean Tait. More details are here.

Oregon and Oklahoma State have moved up to 3-4, while Stanford and Boise State drop to 7-8 after losing. I don’t see much chance of the “Big Eight” changing, as the gulf between #8 and #9 and is bigger than the spread between #9 and #17.
