College Top Ten

1. Oklahoma - The best team in the country's best conference? Until somoene slows the train down (please say it will be Texas...), the Sooners are the team to beat.
2. Alabam - The best team in the country's 2nd best conference. Unlike Missouri and Texas, LSU has faced some stiffer competition this season.
3. Missouri - As the season has progressed, the Tigers early season win against Illinois looks a bit more impressive. Also, they leapfrog Texas as the Longhorns opponents seem to weaken.
4. Texas - The Horns are yet untested, but they haven't looked this good since 2005, when they were led by a junior, fleet of foot Texas grown QB...
5. LSU - The true tests for LSU come up this week. The win against Auburn looks weaker in what is shaping up to be an overrated SEC.
6. BYU - Undefeated and rolling. Until someone knocks them off, this is the BCS buster.
7. Penn State - Up until the last few weeks, PSU wasn't impressive to me. The spread HD seems a complete package, reminding many of the high scoring 2005 Orange Bowl squad. Still, I give Ohio State the edge in the battle for the Big. This Saturday's matchup with Wisconsin may be tougher than critics think.
8. Texas Tech - Becuause of Ohio State and USC's mishaps, Mike Leach finds himself in the top 10.
9 & 10. USC and Ohio State - Just wait: when the end of year arrives, these two will again be in talk for the BCS title game berth...dammit.
