1. Ohio State (No Movement): Well, the Buckeyes sleep walked through a horrible opponent and now other teams think they may be vulnerable, they are mistaken. 2. Michigan (No Movement): The game against Ball State was closer than the score appeared, but at the same time it was not as close as the score appeared. Lloyd Carr put his subs in too early and they let Ball State back in . This just confirms a few things I have said all season: 1.) Michigan has no depth 2.) Lloyd Carr is an idiot. 3.) Chad Henne is very average and continues to make stupid throws.
3. Texas (No Movement): Well, they didn’t lose so they will stay. #1 Question on everyone’s mind? Will the pollsters allow Texas a rematch vs. Ohio State? I am not sure on this one.
4. California (No Movement): Cal put away an underrated UCLA team pretty handily, 38-24. The game was more like 38-17, but the Bears gave up a late TD. Now they get one final tune up before they pound USC’s BCS hopes into the ground.
5. Auburn (No Movement): Well Auburn has no one left to play, I guess now they are just forced to sit back and pray for an Arkansas loss. Due to the “Nebraska Rule” Auburn has no chance at the championship game unless they win their conference. Unfortunately for them, they cannot even play in it unless Arkansas loses a game.
6. Florida (No Movement): Florida should be able to coast into the SEC championship game now. The Gators have clinched their spot, now all they have to do is win it.
7. Wisconsin (Up 2): The Badgers have no one left to play, so they should probably just go ahead and start celebrating that BCS berth now.
8. Arkansas (Up 2): This team continues to prove that they are going to be a factor in the SEC (for a couple of more years). Mitch Mustain is as advertised.
9. LSU (up 4): Wow, what a game against Tennessee. It was a shame that someone had to lose it, but I am glad it was Phil Fulmer. Screw him.
10. Tennessee (Down 3): Vols get a tough one this week after a tough loss last week. This week they play in what is probably the game of the week against Arkansas. I like the Hogs to beat’em without Eric Ainge.
11. USC (Down 1): Someone had to be here, seems like a nice place for USC to hang out until they lose another game.
12. Notre Dame (Down 1): Well, I guess Quinn gets another week to polish up his stats. I wonder if beating a three loss USC team will be enough of a quality win coupled with gaudy stats from a soft schedule will be enough to push him over the top in NY.
13. Boston College (Down 5): This year’s ACC Is like two years ago’s Big East which was actually ½ of conference U.S.A. a year before that. Any questions?
14. Rutgers (up 1): They beat Louisville, who beat West Virginia, who beat Eastern Washington. This proves that the Big East Conference probably has at least three teams that are better than the seventh best team in the Big Sky Conference. Until someone in this conference starts scheduling some serious heavy hitters out of conference, I will not take any of them seriously. I will say that I do like the way that the Scarlet Knights play and that was one hell of a great game to watch.
15. This space for rent.
On a positive note I am not getting email from West Virginia fans anymore; I guess they took the computers out of the prison libraries. Amazing what a loss to an equally crappy, overrated team will do.
