The first part of the bird's nest has been unwound.
The USA Today Coaches' Poll has Ohio State and LSU playing for the national championship.
Ohio State has 46 first place votes. LSU has 11 first place votes followed by OU with two and Hawaii with one.
Considering that the coaches' poll, combined with the Harris Poll, make up two thirds of the BCS rankings, it would likely take a drastic disagreement from the Harris Poll to keep LSU out of the title game.
