I’m feeling better about my USF comments after viewing their debacle of a football game last night.

1) Swap TCU and Boise
2) USC to 13th, move up 12 and 13
3) move USF down a slot (or two)
4) Put in VT

I think LSU is in about the right spot. There’s no telling what would’ve happened had that interception call gone the other way. Yeah, they couldn’t challenge Florida at home when Tebow had just had a concussion, and a few of their wins weren’t pretty, but the other teams ranked with them (Miami and Ohio State) have some issues as well.

TCU 4, Cincy, 5, Boise 6

@4 Pretty much agree on all fronts, I would have Boise below TCU and Cincy. They’re all undefeated, but Boise only has the one good win. And Oregon should still be above SC, they both have two losses, and Oregon won head to head. For similar reasons, SC should be above Ohio State. And yeah, Auburn blows.

And everyone knew this was coming, but go ahead and insert generic weekly comment about LSU being ranked too high.

I’d rather see Oregon State in there than Stanford. Both are 6-3 and the Beavs won the head-to-head.

With an off week, I’m not sure USF deserves to move up. Nor am I so sure they even deserve to be in the top 25. The Bulls did start 5-0, but it was against bad teams (Wofford, W. Kentucky, Charleston Southern, Florida St, and Syracuse). They have since gone 1-2 in the strong part of their schedule with losses to Cincy and Pitt and the win over WVU.

What’s the reasoning for Boise State being ahead of TCU? Last week I thought Boise was the better team, but after this past week I really don’t see how TCU wouldn’t mop the floor with Boise.

Also, why is Southern Cal ahead of Oregon? SC barely beat Arizona State on the road. Sure, Oregon lost, but it was just 10 days ago that Oregon destroyed USC. I’d say drop USC to #13 and move the other two up one.

Also like swapping VT with Auburn.

VT needs to be there. 4 ACC teams must be in the poll. Or we look bad…

I do to, but I’d rather have VT in there bc Auburn dropped three straight. they need to work back up and I think VT would handle Auburn head to head.

I like the inclusion of Auburn and Stanford.

Rather see us at the 25th spot. I’m just being passive about this, don’t want big heads yet.
