Signs Point to Buckeyes-Tigers for Title
NEW YORK (AP) — The first piece of the BCS puzzle has been revealed and LSU appears to be a good bet to join Ohio State in the national championship game. The USA Today coaches' poll released Sunday had Ohio State as a comfortable No. 1, which was no surprise. The Buckeyes received 46 first-place votes and 1,469 points.
LSU was a solid No. 2 in the coaches' poll. The Southeastern Conference champions, who lost for the second time this season less than two weeks ago, had 1,418 points.
The Bowl Championship Series uses the coaches' poll, the Harris poll and a compilation of computer ratings to determine which teams will play in the national title game on Jan. 7 in New Orleans.
The two polls count for two-thirds of a team's BCS average, and points received, not just rankings, are taken into account. The computer ratings make up the other third of a team's BCS average.
BCS analyst Jerry Palm, who runs http://www.collegebcs.com, said Sunday in a phone interview that Ohio State and LSU are both likely to be among the top three teams in the computer ratings. If so, it would take a dramatic difference in the Harris poll to keep LSU from grabbing the second spot in the final BCS standings and a matchup with Ohio State at the Superdome.
"Unless Oklahoma is No. 1 and USC is No. 2 ... Unless we see something totally off the wall in the Harris poll," Palm said LSU is safe.
The Harris poll was due out later Sunday and the BCS matchups were to be revealed Sunday night.
Oklahoma was a distant third in the coaches' poll with 1,331 points, followed by Georgia (1,277 points), Virginia Tech (1,242 points) and Southern California (1,227 points).
After Missouri and West Virginia lost Saturday night, it opened the way for a team with two losses to play for a BCS national championship for the first time.
Barring another wacky turn of events in a season full of them, LSU will be the lucky two-time loser.

BCS party at Stan Sheriff tomorrow, All invited
The University of Hawai'i has invited its fans to take part in a segment of Fox Sports' live showing of the Bowl Championship Series Selection Show tomorrow from the Stan Sheriff Center.
The Warriors, 12-0, rallied from 21 points down to defeat Washington, 35-28, at Aloha Stadium tonight.
The Warriors are expected to clinch a berth in the BCS.
Sheriff Center gates will open at 2:15 p.m. and fans are expected to be seated by 2:50 p.m., for the program which starts at 3 p.m., UH said.
Admission is free and UH officials say they would like to fill the 10,300-seat arena much as Boise State did for their BCS announcement last year.
UH coach June Jones, Warrior players, cheerleaders, Rainbow Dancers and pep band will take part.
The bowl pairings, which likely would send UH to the Allstate Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, will be revealed in the 40-minute program that follows Fox's NFL coverage at 3 p.m. Hawai'i time. Fox will televise four of the five BCS bowls, including the Jan. 1 Sugar Bowl.
"This will be an incredible atmosphere with members of the football team, cheerleaders, pep band and enthusiastic fns participating," said Herman Frazier, UH athletic director. "We want to show the nation the fantastic support that our Warriors receive from the entire Hawai'i ohana."
"They are an exciting team that we want America to get to know better, and what better way than when you have a prime-time BCS selection show?" said Fox spokesman Dan Bell.
"Not only are they a tremendous story, they have one of the best players in the country in Colt Brennan, one of the most exciting offenses and best teams in the country."
Last year, Fox did a similar segment from Boise State's jam-packed 12,380-seat Taco Bell Arena as the 12-0 Broncos received their Fiesta Bowl bid.Fans are encouraged to wear green shirts and bring ti leaves, pom-poms and signs.
Last year's selection show drew an audience of 13.3 million households. The 2007 Sugar Bowl was seen in 14.5 million households, according to Fox.

Books of Norman Mailer
Norman Mailer, the author whose name was synonymous with literary celebrity in the second half of the 20th century, died Saturday at the age of 84.
Mailer died of renal failure at Mount Sinai Hospital, said J. Michael Lennon, his biographer.
Mailer’s death represents “the loss of a literary giant who was 100 percent American,” said Dick Cavett.
His books are:
1."The Naked and the Dead" (1948): Called one of the greatest war novels, not without reason.
2."The Armies of the Night" (1968): This account of the 1967 march against the Pentagon created New Journalism.
3."The Executioner's Song" (1979): The story of Gary Gilmore that many critics regard as Mailer's true masterpiece.
4."Tough Guys Don't Dance" (1984): Mailer's own favorite: a dark, taut thriller that he knocked off to pay the bills.

Triple ID Thefts & Got $100k
By Jennifer Sullivan
Seattle Times staff reporter
A Mountlake Terrace High School dropout who is suspected of assuming at least three identities to gain entrance to some of the nation's most prestigious colleges and to fraudulently collect more than $100,000 in student loans is now the subject of a federal investigation.
Esther Reed, 29, disappeared from the area in 1999 after pleading guilty in King County to stealing her sister's checkbook. Since then, law-enforcement officials say, she has conned friends, employers, boyfriends and college-admissions officials into believing she was one of three different women whose identities she assumed in order to gain admission into Harvard, Columbia and California State University, Fullerton.
Reed is now wanted by federal authorities because she fraudulently received more than $100,000 in student loans, racked up credit-card bills and obtained a passport in someone else's name, according to federal charging papers. She was indicted last summer by a federal grand jury in South Carolina on charges of mail fraud, wire fraud, aggravated identity theft and Social Security fraud, according to the indictment that was unsealed this week.
Assistant U.S. Attorney W. Walter Wilkins said the U.S. Marshals Service and the Secret Service, which is assigned to investigate identity theft and Social Security fraud, are searching for the missing woman. He said that if Reed is found, tried and convicted she could face more than 20 years in prison.
"She could be anywhere," said Wilkins, who is based in Greenville, S.C. "Esther Reed has obviously become very creative and skilled in assuming somebody else's identification."
Before the indictment, Reed was wanted by King County authorities for the checkbook theft and by police in Travelers Rest, S.C., home of a missing woman whose identity Reed allegedly assumed.
On July 4, 1999 — the same year Reed last spoke with her family in the Pacific Northwest — Brooke Henson vanished from a house party in Travelers Rest. Local police believed the 20-year-old woman had been slain, until receiving a telephone call from New York City police last year.
Henson, a high-school dropout, had somehow gained entrance to Columbia University. A prospective employer researching Henson's background contacted police in New York when she found a Web site dedicated to the missing woman, according to police in Travelers Rest.
