This week's BlogPoll had more movement (see all our BlogPoll ballots).  What a strange top 10 lineup we now have after more bizarre upsets.  LSU got lucky but you have to give them credit for going for the win over Florida.  The Gators disappointed at the end of that game but they stay high in our rankings because what team below them would really beat them in a matchup??   Seriously.  They still have a brutal schedule ahead of them in the SEC so that story is not finished being told by any measure. 

Similarly, we think SuC stays high even though they fell asleep at the wheel a second week in a row because now they will bring it just like they did against Michigan in last year's Rose Bowl after their epic loss to us. Cal is lucky they aren't playing SuC for a month.  But we are watching for signs of a breakdown in SuC.   Oklahoma bounced back from a disinterested loss at Colorado.  They played tough at Texas and remain our outsider for the championship game.  Texas doesn't drop but 2 slots because they were in their game until the end in a solid effort like Florida.  Cal and Ohio State moved up by virtue of wins and a loss by SuC.  

The rest of the top 25 just fall into line .. no real surprising movements. BC is really over-rated but until someone beats them they keep their move up. Wisconsin and Georgia took their falls due to the nature of their play the last couple of games not just their losses last Saturday.  The Big East will have another cave in when South Florida has their first loss.  Still too highly ranked for our tastes and we are sure they will start to beat each other up for Darling of the BCS.  Not much else to say, so we'll get you to it .. here is our BlogPoll ballot:
