O.K. Orson, you make some good points in your initial poll suggestions, but you are way off in others. For instance, not only did Utah lose Urban Meyer, but they lost the number 1 draft pick and all everything quarterback Alex Smith (look what happened to UCF after Culpepper left). So, without further ado, my top 10 preseason picks.

The Utes are hoping they don’t fall as fast in the post Alex Smith era as the Knights did when Culpepper left.

Some smartass at the Detroit zoo attempted to name a pair of baby Wolverines “Bucky” and “Sparty,” prompting an outcry from Michigan fans resulting in a name change for the new kits. Rather than bearing the names of Big Ten rivals, the new wolverines will now be known by the less offensive monikers of “Fuckface” and “InfantKillah69@aol.com.”

Baby Wolverines may be called kits, but never called Sparty. “Fuckface” is just fine, though.
Senior fullback Deon Anderson has decided to transfer. Anderson cited personal reasons for leaving leaves the Huskies with a hole at the position which will have to be filled by a red shirt freshman. But relax Husky fans, he’s only a fullback and the last time I checked this is still college football which isn’t really known for heavily relying on the fullback position.
Blue-Gray Sky, quickly becoming our favorite Notre Dame Blog, posts a nice bit on the BCS’ risible search for a new voting bloc for the rankings. (While you’re there, appreciate their fine choice of logo, too–what’s more badass than the Four Horsemen? Besides LSU’s Chinese Bandits? )
We have our own suggestion. Since the BCS isn’t taking this seriously, let’s kill two birds with one stone for them: let the District of Columbia decide the BCS. They’re forever whining about not having adequate national representation, anyway. Fine! Let them have it in the form of deciding something truly important: college football’s national champion. It’s a ridiculous idea, of course, but it’s as conscientious as anything the BCS can propose right now.

From Adams Morgan to Foggy Bottom…let them decide!
We’re putting the pipe down and going to bed, but before we do, we had to share a magically delicious quote from R.D. Baker’s Cheap Seats regarding Wyatt Sexton:
Wyatt better be careful. The last nut that claimed to be God in this country got his compound burned to the ground.
Horrible. And funny. Nice work!
