overrated/underrated #3

According to the BCS computers (with AP rank/computer rank in parentheses)

Overrated due to a lack of wins over top teams
Oklahoma (5/9)
Missouri (9/13)
Hawaii (12/unrated) - 27 teams received a share of the computer vote
Texas (14/unrated) - Neither Hawaii nor Texas were among these 27
USC (13/25)

Underrated b/c they're not traditional football powers
UConn (16/11)
S. Florida (20/12)
UVa (29/18) - computers, however, overrate them since they don't take margin of victory into account

Underrated b/c of a tough schedule
Auburn (19/14)

The computers seem to think that humans overrate the Big 12 and underrate the Big East.
