1. closed the gap on Notre Dame and nearly jumped to #7

    FSU dropped down 2 spots on an idle week

    1. Ohio State
    2. Michigan State
    3. TCU
    4. Baylor
    5. Ole Miss
    6. Georgia
    7. Notre Dame
    8. LSU
    9. FSU
    10. UCLA
    11. Clemson
    12. Utah
    13. Alabama
    14. Oklahoma
    15. Texas A&M

    Utah the big mover, 5 spots.

    Florida enters at #23. MSU #22.
  2. Yeah, I hated to pull for Florida yesterday, but it helps our strength of schedule and hurts Alabama for Tennessee to lose.
  3. Could not agree more on all fronts.

  4. Not bad at all for an "ugly" win, especially when all of the teams above us also won their games!

  5. So...with Oregon getting emasculated by Utah last night, does Michigan State really belong at #2? That #2 ranking is on the merit of that one "quality" win over Oregon, and they struggled more with their directional school yesterday than we did with Syracuse.

    Acutally, the media wasn't mentioning us having "struggled," it was all about Fournette again--that's going to be the narrative of the season for us, and I'm more than happy with that.

    Also, TCU is a definite pretender at #3. Their fall will come, and Baylor's will, too. I think OU will reassert their dominance in the Big 12 this season, toppling both of those Texas private schools.
  6. Georgia / Bama will be good this week.
  7. Excellent points as always, Stacey. I like how the narrative of our game yesterday is focused on Fournette (quite frankly, as it should be), and not on the sloppy aspects that us fans are nitpicking to death.

  9. That's why they shouldn't have polls so early in the season.
  10. I tried to pull for Florida (just threw up in my mouth a little) but I just couldn't do it. If we win our games, sos won't be an issue.
