Polls for week of Nov. 6

Well, the official polls aren't out yet, but they can be put in this thread. I've updated my poll for this week.

Feel free to criticize, but at least understand my criteria. I rank teams based on results for this season only; it doesn't matter what anybody did before this season. The entire body of work for the season is considered equally, I don't care when a team loses. I factor in margin of victory somewhat, but a 24-point win is pretty much the same to me as a 54-point win. Beating true cupcakes means virtually nothing.

01. Texas
02. USC
03. Alabama
04. Miami
05. Penn State
06. LSU
07. Va. Tech
08. Georgia
09. tOSU
10. Oregon
11. Notre Dame
12. Florida
13. Texas Tech
14. Florida State
15. W. Va.
16. Auburn
17. UCLA
18. Wisconsin
19. Fresno St.
20. TCU
21. Ga. Tech
22. Colorado
23. scUM
24. Oklahoma
25. Minnesota

I think the real polls will look very similar to that as far as the teams immediately in front of us go.

That why this weekend's SEC games are huge for us

LSU vs Alabama

Auburn vs UGA

We need the SEC runner up to be well behind us in the BCS...we should all be big Bama fans from here on out.

LSu will be ranked ahead of Penn State in the human polls, but they shouldn't be.

Penn St. has defeated NW'ern with a late 4th-down conversion, top-10 tOSU, Minny, and top-20 Wiscy. Their loss was a last-second one on the road to a now-ranked scUM team.

LSU beat top-15 Florida, top-20 Auburn in OT on a missed FG, and 4-loss Arizona St. on a 4th and long bomb. They lost to a Tennessee team that's now 3-5.

Penn State's wins are at least as impressive as LSU's, and their loss is not as bad.

These are the adjustments that most voters don't make.

If Bama loses to both LSU and Auburn, we're also OK as far as the SEC competing for the at-large BCS bid. We just don't want Bama to split their next two games. I explained this in more detail in the BCS thread, at the bottom of page 1.

I think Notre Dame will be ranked another spot or two higher, only because they are Notre Dame...and because even though Tenn. is having a downright aweful season, they are still Tenneessee in the pollsters eyes. Again this is bull[censored] though because who has Notre Dame beat? Have they beaten any top 25 teams besides scUM?
