It was difficult to figure out who deserved #7 this week. Wiscy would have been there if they had shown up in the second half on Saturday.

My poll for this week, just because I like to stay transparent.
1. Alabama 2. Oklahoma 3. Missouri 4. Penn State 5. Texas 6. LSU 7. Texas Tech 8. USC 9. Florida 10. Ohio State 11. Auburn 12. Utah 13. BYU 14. South Florida 15. Georgia 16. Kansas 17. Boise State 18. Wisconsin 19. Vanderbelt 20. Oregon 21. Kentucky 22. UConn 23. Oklahoma State 24. Virginia Tech 25. Northwestern Looks like out of the 9 points for Kentucky, I was 5 of them. But, heck, they haven't lost, and their d-line looks really really good to me. This week was a little bit more difficult. Last edited by JXC; 09-30-2008 at 11:00 AM. |

I like this poll, it's better than what the AP has up. Here is my ballot. Couple of thoughts.
I don't think teams should necessarily move up or down during bye weeks. Moveing one place or so isn't so bad, but I don't necessarily think that Texas Tech is better this week than last just because Florida lost to Ole Miss (besides I'm not sold on TT anyway). I also don't believe that Illinois should drop because they lost to the #6 and #3 teams, and looked pretty good in each game. They are supposed to loose those games (if they were supposed to win, they would have ranked higher, right?). So, I kept them right where they were last week. Finally, I'm not sold on Texas Tech and South Florida. TT will likely loose to OU and Texas, and it just seems silly to move them up the polls just to knock them back down again later. (By the same logic, if they loose to Texas and OU, I won't knock them down much either, unless they get blown out.) Oh, Auburn sucks, at least on offense. And UConn would be my 26. Looking forward to UConn-USF. -z 1. Oklahoma 2. Alabama 3. Missouri 4. Texas 5. LSU 6. Penn St. 7. USC 8. Florida 9. BYU 10. Ohio State 11. Georgia 12. South Florida 13. Texas Tech 14. Virginia Tech 15. Auburn 16. Kansas 17. Wisconsin 18. Utah 19. Illinois 20. Vanderbilt 21. Fresno St. 22. Boise St. 23. Georgia Tech 24. Oklahoma St. 25.

I have a very hard time putting Brigham Young in the top 10. I mean who have they beaten this season excess for some very poor Pac-10 teams and they only beat Washington by 1 point. I just think that there are quite a few teams beneath them that would take them to the woodshed. Well, maybe not the woodshed but they certainly would beat them.
I also have a problem dropping Illinois also way out of the top 25 just because they lost to Penn State and Penn State is ranked in the top 10 and they did play at the Criminals' Valley. I certainly think they would give UConn a run for their money. Still unsure about Vanderbilt because I can barely read the name but I will have a better handle on them after they get taken care of by Auburn this Saturday. I also think Utah is getting too much respect because they beat sCum and Air Force by a touchdown... please. |
