We witnessed a bit of a shake up in what was at least my Top10 this weekend with Texas going down in flames and Arkansas falling to Alabama. We can expect even more this coming week with Alabama and Florida facing off. Also with conference play starting around the nation we all know that scores are going to get much tighter and the probability of upsets much higher.
So anyway, here's how I'm voting this week...unless you can change my mind.
1. Alabama - The Tide were tested against Arkansas and a chink in the armor was discovered in the Bama secondary but they got what matters most which was a win.
2. Ohio State - Unchallenged against Eastern Michigan.
3. TCU - Closer than expected against SMU but still a convincing win.
4. Oregon - A trip to Arizona State proved that things are going to get tighter for the Ducks in conference play but their offense is still unbelievably impressive.
5. Oklahoma - What's that? A win on the road!
6. Boise State - Cupcakes from here on out for the Broncos.
7. Florida - Huge game looming for the Gators this weekend.
8. Nebraska - A bit of a let down for the Huskers after last week's road trip to the West Coast.
9. Auburn - Gonna push Alabama for the best team in the state?
10. Miami - Impressive on the road at Pitt in the Thursday night game
