Multiple choice poll on the way…

2

They all stay, no losses this week.

3

Wait. Sorry for the double post, but I just realized that’s LSU ahead of FSU, not Florida. What the hell? LSU jumps 3 spots on a win over TCU? I mean, I know TCU was a “ranked” team, but way to pat your own back there writers. “We said TCU was good, so LSU must be better than we thought.” And Florida drops 2 spots WITH A WIN? The damn sportswriters are making the case that they should no longer be allowed a preseason poll. Personally, I say no polling until Week 3.

Poll closes in 26 hours.

5

Thank the SEC for not making this weekend a total bore in the Top 10.

6

Hmmm… I say Georgia will beat South Carolina, BUT…

Since the voters regard every team in the SEC as a powerhouse, South Carolina won’t fall far. They’ll end up #11 and Georgia will crack the top 10 again.

7

Yeah, I voted for SCar to drop out this week. I think GA bounces back from a tough road loss to win at home, and will knock them out.

8

If San Jose State hadn’t lost their coach to Colorado after last year, I might have gone for the upset pick there. Stanford escaped 20-17 last year against the Spartans in the opener.

9

Yeah, in my pools I picked Georgia. Here I picked SC. Call it my way of limiting my losses.

LOL at BobLibDem not voting for Alabama, A&M, & LSU. Really don’t think it is possible for the #1 team to fall out of the Top 10 on a bye week. :cool:

Hate can do wonders to your reasoning abilities.

Slightly off topic, but Ole Miss cracked the Top 25 this week. Hotty Toddy!

16

Flim Flam, Bim Bam! Ole Miss, By Damn! Really one of the all-time great cheers in college football.

And it appears The U is creeping back from the doldrums. Although, I have to say that Muschamp coached the single worst first half of college football in recent memory. So many unnecessary bad decisions…

Other than that, the rest of the games played out about like I expected (but didn’t vote - I voted too quick and forgot SC and UGA were playing :smack:).

I know we were on a bye week, but it’s bullshit that UGA jumped us and is in the Top Ten with one loss. It’s too early in the season for that shit, but the AP voters continue to fellate the SEC. Look at the OOC so far this year, folks, they ain’t all that and a slice of bread.

Seriously, is there a team in the west you don’t root for? I thought you were a Miss St. fan.
