looks like the sports writers just copied their poll from the coaches with a few teams flip flopping. maybe i'm just biased...okay so of course i am biased, but UCLA? seriously outranking Auburn and Tennessee? yeah i know they beat USC last year but could they really beat any good team from the SEC? i doubt it. whatevs, when they get blown out by Oregon don't do i didn't say so. I Still think Georgia is highly overrated. replacing their entire offensive and defensive lines and most of their secondary doesn't exactly spell SEC East champions to me. the pollsters are sleeping on South Carolina, but i see the Cocks doing more than just scaring the shit out of everyone and losing close games to ranked foes like they've done the past 2 years. another team getting no love in the polls is South Florida. the Bulls may be one of the ugliest looking teams in college football, but they are slowing becoming the second best team in the limp dick of America known sometimes as Florida as Miami and Florida State continue to slide. a couple of other dark horses are Missouri and Alabama, don't sleep on the Tide. sure their D ain't much to look at, but they've got the best receivers in the conference not playing in Gainsville and a great young QB...if someone could actually establish thyself at runningback then Bama could easily end up with 8 or 9 wins.
