We shall have to wait and see…. I think that USC has a great shot to creep back in there and I also believe that the 12 will pick each other off as the SEC does every year giving them just that window.

Georgia still isn’t blowing up my skirt… Bama looks good but they haven’t faced another big, bad O/D line, yet. They worked Georgia’s lines and I would like to see them do that against LSU (oh, and GA was wearing black… that hadta mean something )

No competition will ever be enough in the Big 10 to make anyone happy after tOSU’s ever-present shitting of non-conference made beds and USC gets a free pass in the Pac 10. Even though Wiscy played like they didn’t want to be there PSU treated them as such and that says something (see Michigan and tOSU’s wonderful showings today). I would love to see PSU redeem some honor this year and screw the rest of the Big 10 in the process

Damn I want a playoff….

Yes, Alabama hasn’t played well at times, but in their biggest game so far (at Georgia…forget Clemson, they’re a Tommy Bowden-coached team and you know how that is) they thrashed a good team very convincingly. Penn State, however, has yet to play anyone of note (and don’t call a Wisconsin team that didn’t seem like they wanted to be in it against Ohio State and couldn’t catch Steven Threet in a game that again they didn’t play like they wanted to win “notable”)–while they’ve looked good so far, it’s easy to look good against crap competition.

But you are right, there still is a good amount of football to be played (which is why I think that a B12 South winner will not run the table–the top 4 in that division are just insane)

Face it. There is a lot of season to play, football exists outside of duh SEC, and we’ll never know until we start settling the NC on the field.

For the record, I would take PSU over Bama without hesitation after watching that asswhipping today

But what does this all mean?

–Texas should, by all means, be number 1 this week. The way they played in the 2nd half was astounding. Bama should be number 2 after playing that powerhouse side Bye’s got, Penn State 3 and then it just gets sloppy after that (not 1, but 2 Utah schools possibly in the top 5?). Mizzou, Oklahoma and LSU should all drop to the lower rungs of the top 10, joined by Okie State and the other Utah school (probably the apostates, as BYU was higher to begin with), as well as someone else.
–Congratulations, Colt McCoy. You just moved yourself into the fabled cat-bird seat for the Heisman, possibly joined by Moreno. Daniel and Bradford took hits but could get right back into it.
–As for fellow Missouri fans? It’s hard to look for a silver lining, as it just proves EVERY DAMN THING the detractors said about this team (Daniel’s a glorified pizza-boy, no pass defense on deep fades, the uncanny ability to give up the big play), but I might have found one: last year, after the Tigers lost to an Oklahoma team in a “That Game”, they came back to beat a Texas team (last year it was Tech), playing with something to prove.
–I’m deathly afraid that, if things progress like they just might, we’ll see another NCG with a very good, no doubt, SEC team just manhandling an utterly overmatched school from the Big Televen (Bama versus Penn State), simply because they both are undefeated. If that happens, several websites will implode, Mike Alden will file papers to join the Big Ten, and I will throw my hands in the air and begin writing a virus to crash the BCS computers.

My fantasy team thanks him.

So, I’m going to focus on getting my weekly dose of Petros Papadakis and let the commenting go.

HBTD.
