Here you go. GT did some hurting on VT, knocking them from 4 to 15 while they climbed from 19 to 11. Don't see UGA anywhere, though. Later, QD.

Ya after Florida's barely squeaking by against Arkansas Saturday, I say Alabama takes the #1 spot easily.

Florida, Miami, USC, and LSU are all over rated. Iowa should be at #4 right now.

That could be said for the entire top ten besides 'Bama.

The top 10 is pretty messed up, but it is all due to biased voting....USC should NOT be where they are, but so many people don't want to see them fall anymore. It is already bad enough to them that USC wont play for the championship.

- Florida is good, but doesn't deserve a #1 spot right now (BCS). #1 requires style points and DECISIVE wins, which UF is lacking @ the moment (not saying they don't have it in them!)
- Bama deserves #1 right now(BCS). Period. End of Story.
- Texas........is EXTREMELY lucky to be 6-0 and caught a break by taking the wind out of Oklahoma's sails by taking Bradford out again. They were on a roll, and they just crumbled in disappointment when Sam went down. Let's not forget that poor showing against a severely un-talented Colorado team (even though I love CU)

- Cincinnati/Boise State: both of you get a better schedule and then you might deserve these rankings, but thanks to pre-season polls and big names falling all season, these "unranked BCS busters" get the spotlight. They will put them this high and knock out other good teams, but they would never let either play for the Natl Championship because it wouldnt be a game

- Iowa...ehh you can stay there, good games so far

- Miami: Your one loss came decisively at the hands of a VT team that just got beat for the 2nd time this year. You have a smart coach, not because of his coaching, but because of his scheduling ability. You played an unimpressive FSU team, had all off-season to prepare for tech (which you admitted to doing exclusively for a week in spring camp) and you got a 10-day break before you played them while they were playing their 3rd game in 12 days!!!! So needless to say, had you played GT a week later, or even a week earlier, you would be 4-2 and not a top 10 team whatsoever.

- LSU is fine in my book, but havent looked impressive against teams like UGA, so a top 15 ranking is in order, but more towards 14 or 15

- TCU: You might have one tough team on your schedule which is UTAH! Take a backseat and step back to the 15-20 range at most!

- Georgia Tech: I am a biased tech fan, but feel a 9-11 ranking is acceptable and fair. They were ranked 14 before the loss to miami and have played some great football since then and beat the #4 team in the nation. If it weren't for biased voters, tech wouldn't have left the top 25, thus placing them a spot or 3 higher than they are now.

My only other problem is with South Carolina: They played really well against Alabama, and even though they had a bad game, were one tipped pass from beating UGA. They deserve to be 18 at most, but not #23.

UF, USC, OSU= overrated as fuck.

Glad to see Bama took the top spot even if it just is the AP.

Agreed, but you forgot to mention LSU. I also think Iowa is underrated as hell at #7, they should be #4 at worst right now.

It is alot of fun to give the poodle fans hell. Listenin to the radio today they were talking about how well the defense is playing. They seemed to forget that UGA played Vandy and it was only a week after being embarrassed off the field in Knoxville.

Exactly. I don't care if my team isn't very good this year, we still beat the drum brakes off UGA!

Let's face it, the Top 25 as a whole is a damn mess right now. Very few teams truly deserve the rank they're holding down this week; the Gators included. They haven't played like the #1 team as a whole against anyone but their creampuff games and Kentucky. The D held it down against LSU, but the offense was and has since been basically nonexistent. The Arkansas game was like a car accident on the side of the road... I wanted to look away and leave so badly, but at the same time I couldn't help but watch. That shit was seriously ugly.

At least you are realistic, some Florida fans are going on about that tough Florida schedule and that a win is a win in the SEC. If you ask me, right now you have Bama and everyone else. Outside of Bama, I honestly dont know if any of these tp[ 10 teams would have made the top 20 last year.

LSU will be gone soon. They lost to the only decent team they have played and they will lose at least 2 more this year.

SC will finish the year with no less than 4 losses and will finish unranked again.

Florida will be ranked high no matter what they do. They are media darlings and will feel the benefit.

ya'll got to remember this is the AP polls and not the BCS.

FL is doing good, but the past game did put a hurting on them. i don't know wtf was with them. i'm a FL fan for life. its just my team. so i will pull for them even if they're in the last spot.

bama is actually doing a lot better than i thought they would since, last season, they lost a lot of their starting players, but they are still kicking ass like they were last year. gotta give them the props for that.

LSU, they might as well be out. same with UGA, neither are doing all that good this year.
