Darn, UF is a bit lower than I hoped. Should move up with a couple wins in the next few weeks.

Uggggghhhhhh

Mark Schlabach's article this week asking if Texas is actually tested:
Think it would be that easy against Southern California? Or Alabama? Florida? Georgia? How about defending national champion LSU?

Probably not.
Probably based on what you fucking dickfat?

(probably based on SEC total defense #s; this oughtta be retarded to everyone but fip- so Texas isnt tested because theyve beaten highly ranked Big 12 teams and SEC teams are tested because they dont score on each other)

I hate them very much but Texas looks like the best team to date.

I still don't think they get through the Big 12 unscathed though.

It will happen. It always does.*

I had written anything above the Rose Bowl off, but hell, if we can beat Penn State, we're right back in this thing with a remaining schedule of Illinois, Northwestern, Michigan.

I think basically every one else in the picture would need 2 losses for them to let us get in though.

And the SEC will release a statement tomorrow saying, "he was defending himself."

1. Texas - not even a question
2. Alabama - destroyed Georgia in their place
3. Penn State - can't put them above Alabama when they lack a win the caliber of that GA win
4. Oklahoma - only loss is to the best team in the country in a neck-and-neck awesome game
5. Oklahoma State - unbeaten, nice win over Mizzou
6. USC - That loss to Oregon State is unacceptable.
7. Ohio State - Only looked really good once. Won't matter if they win Saturday.
8. Florida - They've looked better than Ohio State, but OSU lost to the #1 team in the country at the time on the road, Florida lost to Ole Miss.
9. Boise State
10. Utah

I find it hilarious that Texas Tech is ranked above Boise and Utah just because they're in the Big 12. Utah's played a tougher schedule than Tech so far and Boise beat Oregon, which is a better win than anything Tech's done.

Nice wins by Tech over 2 FCS schools, SMU, Nevada, and 3 of the bad teams in the Big 12.
