So, I went 16-5, same as Denis. But that's fine.
Here's my top 25:
1(1).USC - They absolutely MANHANDLED Arkansas.
2(2).LSU - Still pretty convinced.
3(3).Texas - Winning is great. Winning at Rice is just neat.
4(5). Florida - Urban Meyer + Chris Leak in an offense he can run + crazy talent on both sides of ball = possible SEC Championship.
5(4). Virginia Tech - Woo-hoo, they beat Ohio.
6(6). Georgia - Not gonna jump up playing cupckaes.
7(11). Florida St. - Boston College came in looking for upset. FSU said no.
8(10). Miami - Great game against Clemson. That was unbelievable.
9(9). Arizona St. - They're winning the ones that they should.
10(7). Tennessee - Either Florida is for real or Tennessee is just bad. I'm gonna go with Florida is real and that Tennessee is #2 in the SEC.
11(8). Ohio St. - San Diego St. looked good for second. A second.
12(13). Georgia Tech - Winning the ones they should.
13(14). Michigan - Nice to see Michigan back throttling teams. Let's see them do it to someone good.
14(15). Auburn - They still haven't recovered from the Georgia Tech loss.
15(25). Louisville
16(16). Purdue
17(17). Virginia
18(12). Notre Dame - Can I say I told you so yet?
19(18). Boston College
20(19). Texas Tech
21(21). Iowa State
22(NR).Texas A&M
23(23). California
24(24). Washington St.
25(NR). Alabama
Almost there: (One big win from breaking into the 25.)Wisconsin, Colorado, Oregon, TCU, VANDERBILT.
Ready to drop: (One loss away from disappearing.) 18-25, Louisville
I LOVE VANDERBILT. AND BAYLOR.
Maybe it is just because I am sympathetic towards cupcakes, but both of these guys are 3-0 right now. Vandy could go 5-0, and then be 1 win away from going to a BOWL GAME.
I think Baylor is also going to turn some heads in the Big 12. I think they are going to shock Oklahoma St and Missouri in the last 2 games of their season to go out on a serious high note.
Vanderbilt has a serious quarterback named Jay Cutler. Watch for him. I attribute this thought entirely to Skip Bayless, who said Cutler's name a gajillion times on a 1st and 10 segment on ESPN during the weeks leading up to the season. Vandy will win their next 2 (Richmond, Middle Tenn St.) and then go on to take down South Carolina(woo!) and Kentucky.
It's a monday. I HATE mondays.

Alright, just a couple of quick things. Auburn...Give me a good argument for this team being ranked 14th. I know they have dominated a couple of crap teams, and I admit they are a good team. However, since they lost their opener, to a then unranked Georgia Tech, I think they need a convincing win against some decent South Carolina and Arkansas teams leading into the LSU game before I can give them the credit. I give you this chance to change my mind.
Also, why did Clemson dropped from your rankings. This is a team that played an amazing game and lost in double OT to a Miami team that you have ranked 8th. Are A&M, California and Washington State better than Clemson?
Sic. Em. Bears.
