Last week's ballot

Dropped Out: North Carolina (#21), Clemson (#22), Florida State (#23), Washington (#25).

Star-divide

  • Am I too bullish on Iowa and Houston, overreacting to big wins by both teams?
  • I wanted to put Oregon on the ballot, but Missouri and Michigan are both undefeated. Should I put Oregon in anyway? Who should it replace?
  • Which teams are too high? Which teams are too low?
  • Miami wasn't punished as harshly for its loss because it was on the road against a Top 25 team. Cal and Ole Miss lost to teams out of the rankings and Penn State lost at home to an unranked team.
  • Cincinnati has already amassed quite a resume with road wins against Oregon State and Rutgers and a win over Fresno State. The Bearcats jumped idle Oklahoma.

We have them at #5 too, but ...

I have the sneaking suspicion that LSU may be vastly overrated. Sure they are 4-0, but they have played arguably the 2 worst SEC teams, a Sun Belt team and Washington. Verdict is still out on UW if they are any good this year.

Bottom could easily fall out over the next few weeks with a road game in Athens and home tilts with Florida and Auburn.

theyre a difficult team to figure

they could be really good or they could be really mediocre. the same can be said for virginia tech and iowa.

LSU is a tricky team. It’s a problem for allSEC teams…play no one, win, beat each other, gain praise. I have a friend who lives in Baton Rouge who states LSU is not that great.

The college football season is so fragile. It's like a glass ball being pushed around from stadium to stadium by a rhinoceros.
