Another Crazy Week

#s 4,5,6,9,18,22, and 24 all lost this week. It proves to me that few teams are for real. Right now, that list includes Florida, Alabama, Texas, Cinncinati, and Virginia Tech. Its looking like a crazy season.

Next week I feel the most over-rated team in the country is going to get crushed. Im going out on a limb to say that Georgia will crush LSU 41-17 in Athens. The Kittens slipped by Miss. State 30-26. The kittens are running out of lives.

Houston may be the best Non-BCS team in the country. They beat Texas Tech 29-28. This is their 2nd win over tough opposition. I think we may see them 12-0 and in the BCS by the end of the year.

Here is my current top 10.

1.Florida
2.Alabama
3.Texas
4.TCU
5.Virginia Tech
6.Boise State
7.Oklahoma
8.USC
9.Ohio State
10.Cincinnati

Miami is back!

So first off I want to say that Da U is back in business. They dismantled Ga. Tech 33-17 and J. Harris has established himself as a dark horse heisman candidate. Miami has taken a big jump ahead of everyone else in the ACC, and I wont be surprised if we see a 12-0 by the Canes at the end of the season. Why? They play in the ACC. They have established themselves as a premiere player in the nation, making them an easy pick to dominate the conference.

Week 3 Predictions

We will make this short and sweet.

(14) Ga. Tech 28
(20) Miami 20

(19) Nebraska 24
(13) Va. Tech 27

Tennessee 9
(1) Florida 45

(17) Cincinnati 24
Oregon St. 10

(18) Utah 17
Oregon 31

Fla. State 10
(7) BYU 35

(23) Georgia 21
Arkansas 27

Texas Tech 14
(2) Texas 42

Auburn 31
West VA 17

Thats my story. On a side note I thought Vandy could upset LSU last week, if not for a bogus defensive holding on a pick, I think it may have happend.

Wacky Saturdays Continue, Cowboys Shocked

The biggest story from Saturday was Houston's 45-35 stunner in Stillwater. Houston's offense marched up and down the field on the Cowboys, with Case Keenum passing for over 350 yards. The Cougars got up 24-7 at the half, but the Boys came back. Houston didn't bck down though, and got a big victory. This should cement Houston as the #1 team in C-USA.
#3 USC scored in the last minute to defeat #8 Ohio State 18-15. The game got me to thinking about how over-rated both teams are. OSU, coming off a near loss to Navy almost beat the mighty Trojans? I think USC should wipe the floor with their easy schedule, until they play CAL. I think there may be some embarresment in that game. As I see it there a few teams in the nation at one level and everyone else is far behind.

Level 1 (ranked in order)
Florida
Texas
Alabama
Penn State
Ole Miss
Cal

Level 2
USC
BYU
Oklahoma
North Carolina
Ga Tech
Va. Tech

Level 3
Everyone Else

As we continue through the season I think my assumptions shall be proven, but for now here is my currnet top 10 as an offcial pollster for the Unnoficial BCS Fan Poll.

1. Florida
2.Texas
3.Alabama
4.USC
5.Penn State
6.Ole Miss
7.Cal
8.BYU
9.Oklahoma
10.Boise State

The Rest of my poll can be seen here.
