My (Updated) Top 25 Poll

Well, this is getting interesting. After several Top 10 teams were upended this week, there is a lot of confusion as to who should be ranked where. This is just one man's opinion...but at least it's one man who actually watches the games.

1.) Florida

2.) Alabama

(this space shall remain empty to show the distance between the Tide and Gators and everyone else).

3.) Texas

4.) Iowa

5.) Cincinnati

6.) TCU

7.) USC

8.) Boise State

9.) Oregon

10.) Georgia Tech

11.) Virginia Tech

12.) Miami

13.) Oklahoma State

14.) Ohio State

15.) Penn State

16.) LSU

17.) BYU

18.) Notre Dame

19.) Oklahoma

20.) Houston

21.) Utah

22.) West Virginia

23.) Wisconsin

24.) Kansas

25.) South Florida

It goes to show you how bad some of these supposed "top teams" are that I have teams ranked that lost to Colorado, UTEP, and Florida State in my Top 25. However, there just isn't much left to throw into the mix. The final 10 spots are usually a toss-up anyway (4-2 teams look a lot alike after a while), so don't be offended if your team is 20th; it could easily be 17th or 25th. We'll see how things play out the rest of the year, but right now, it's clear that there are two really good teams and some others that are trying to get a chance to play them in the title game. Who's gonna step up and become a great team? Not sure, but it's gonna be fun to find out.
