Arizona State should be 5th, maybe even 4th depending on what happens tonight. I could definitely see them winning the PAC 12 South tbh.

UNLV have a shot against your Dogs tonight?
too many fat little girlfriends in the SEC this week
I give them a good chance. Even though its in Fresno, UNLV can score alot of points to make this a shootout. I would not be surprised if it was down to the wire today.
UNLV's defense is as bad as Fresno which is saying something. I expect Fresno's offense to score 70.
ASU destroyed Washington tbh.
these rankings
After week 8...
1. Bama - Looking more and more like they will waltz into the SECCG (LSU/Auburn only real remaining tests)
2. Oregon - Juggernaut keeps rolling
3. FSU - Jameis Christ is the best QB in the nation right now, tbh
-
-
- ^^^ These teams are the only real contenders right now, imo
-
-
4. Mizzou - Dominated Florida with a backup QB...Defense is underrated. Will be tested yet again this week vs. South Carolina
5. Baylor - Offense is sick. Lache Seastrunk leads all RB's @ 10 YPC
6. Miami - Almost got beat by a ty UNC team, needs to cut down on turnovers
7. Ohio State - I can smell garbage, can you? May get beat by PSU on Sat
8. Stanford - Major test @ Corvallis late Saturday night
9. Texas Tech - Will find out more @ Breaking Bad University this weekend. Seem solid
10. Fresno St - Another easy win
Conferences?
The SEC East is a flaming pile of garbage. No way I can keep the SEC in the top 2 this week. LSU also the bed, but the west is deep and has 5 of the seven best teams in the whole conference...Still, it's a mess. Only narrowly behind the ACC
1. PAC-12
2. ACC
3. SEC
4. Big-12
5. Big-10
Pac-10 (only has one team with a losing record, Cal @ 1-6)
1. Oregon
2. Stanford
3. Oregon St. (yeah, I know they lost to a FCS team, but they've turned it around and have the best QB nobody has heard of)
4. UCLA
5. Arizona St.
6. Washington (Think they get it turned around)
7. Utah
ACC --- Lot's of depth after the top 4. Only 3 losing squads. Best defensive conference (VT/FSU/Miami)
1. FSU (Does anybody else think Jameis Christ sounds kinda fruity? Doesn't matter, he's a baller)
2. Miami
3. Virginia Tech (Has a dominant defense and has rebounded nicely since losing to Bama)
4. Climpsun (Got exposed. Overrated due to a win against what has proven to be a so-so UGA team)
5. Georgia Tech
6. Boston College (Dropped 34 on FSU, solid club)
7. Duke (lol basketball school, but has a very good offense)
SEC - Lopsided conference, but still only has 2 losing teams. East sucks . I expect them to pass back over the ACC in the future. Defense is an afterthought
1. Bama
2. Mizzou
3. Auburn
4. LSU (What happened to their defense?)
5. Aggie (if only they had a defense...)
6. Ole Miss
7. South Carolina (another team that used to have a dominant defense..what happened?)
Big-12 - Drops off a cliff after the top 5, but those 5 are solid
1. Baylor
2. Texas Tech
3. Okie St. ( the bed early but has time to turn it around)
4. Texas (Can they continue to play well?)
5. Oklahoma
6. TCU
7. West Virginia (3 of 4 losses to ranked teams)
Big 10 - lolololololololololololololololololololololol - Michigan State leads the "Legends" division. Need I say more?-- Somehow they only have 2 teams that have losing records. Expect that to change
1. Ohio State
2. Wisconsin
3. Penn St.
4. Nebraska (garbage. A relic of the past. Maybe the only brand name school that has almost no hope of regaining national relevance.)
5. Michigan St. (pretty good defense)
No sense in ranking any of the other teams... They are all terrible. Michigan is especially disappointing, tons of talent but awful. Brady Hoke should be fired. Perfect example of a coach who recruits well but has no idea how to develop talent

New AP Poll --- First BCS Rankings coming out later on
1 Alabama (55) 7-0 1495 2 Oregon (3) 7-0 1427 3 Florida State (2) 6-0 1395 4 Ohio State 7-0 1309 5 Missouri 7-0 1197 6 Baylor 6-0 1189 7 Miami (FL) 6-0 1130 8 Stanford 6-1 1118 9 Clemson 6-1 927 10 Texas Tech 7-0 904 11 Auburn 6-1 867 12 UCLA 5-1 832 13 LSU 6-2 739 14 Texas A&M 5-2 683 15 Fresno State 6-0 550 16 Virginia Tech 6-1 509 17 Oklahoma 6-1 501 18 Louisville 6-1 428 19 Oklahoma State 5-1 382 20 South Carolina 5-2 381 21 UCF 5-1 345 22 Wisconsin 5-2 258 23 Northern Illinois 7-0 220 24 Michigan 6-1 169 25 Nebraska 5-1 117
Yeah, the BCS rankings having Ohio St. 4th shows how terrible they are.
...Just imagine if that was the top 4 to end the year and the committee put the Buckeyes through over any one of those teams that sit in 6-10. This is why I think they'll increase the playoff from 4 to either 6 (with two byes) or 8 within a few years
By then Missouri would have played Bama in the SEC le game and eliminated one of them, same for Oregon and Stanford. No need to get all worked up with the initial release of the BCS standings. Still plenty of football left to sort things out.
You're definitely right, a few of those would be knocked off. But, as of right now, I still expect one of those Big12 squads to finish undefeated as well (probably Baylor). Still a very real possibility that there are 5 undefeated teams when the smoke clears.
I guess my point is that 4 teams isn't enough, and I'm sure almost every year there will be at least one or two (if not more) who have a legitimate argument for being in the playoff.
I'm still hoping that this year ends with 4+ undefeated teams. One last cluster to send the BCS to its well deserved grave![]()
USC beat Utah! We should be 4th not the Utes...That's how low USC is these days...fighting for fourth, baby!
Sup dude?
Glad Lane finally got the axe. What's the chatter about the coaching search?
Also, not enough movement for me to update rankings this week (other than Mizzou/TT) --- Conferences stay the same, too
Leaning hard on Jack Del Rio who, at this point, is the leader in the clubhouse. I also heard they will make overtures to Kevin Summerlin and Chris Peterson. Also, the dude from Fresno St. has been mentioned. At this point, I want someone who'll rid the stench of Lane Kiffin from Heritage Hall.
I think Del Rio would be great. SC guy, should be a great recruiter, and still young enough to potentially be around for a long time. Gotta wonder if he still has NFL aspirations, though. What he did for such a franchise in J'ville is impressive.
Sumlin would be fine, but I think the lights would be a tad too bright for Peterson (although he's a fantastic coach)
Whoever it is, they'll have plenty of talent. Sure there's still a lack of depth, but there are easily 10 wins on that team (for next year) right now. With Mora at UCLA, the future of LA football is bright, imho
I think he'll remain in the NFL. I think Pat Haden will go for the less splashy coach and I'm not sure who that is. I'm guessing it'll be a young coach that will be able to combat Jim Mora Jr. and get the Trojans back to even par with the powers out of Palo Alto and Eugene. I also read somewhere that they're looking to switch from a strict pro-style offense to a hybrid. That way, they can entice the stars out of h.s. that are going to other schools to play. I don't like the idea but maybe a mixture wouldn't be so bad.
