- Don't forget that this is a DRAFT and we rely on you to tell us how horrible we are.
- Virginia Tech focused on us "cheating" for two weeks and then proceeded to implode. Suck Turkeys. What are you gonna do this week?
- Notre Dame has creeped back in to the rankings (again).
- California jumps back in as the Pac-10 begins to influence the ballot rather well.
- Personally, I think Pittsburgh is too high and looking at my individual ballot, that is my fault. They will drop for sure, but how far people?!
- Is Auburn back? Are they for real?
- Central Michigan didn't move in the rough draft, but they lost. WTF? They'll be gone soon for the final.
- The Big 10 SUCKS

CMU
Should be out BIG TIME. They got spanked by BC. Winfield and Dane screwed up there.
Also, Iowa should’ve lost, in my opinion. That blown replay call cost Indiana a lot of momentum and 7 points.
Pitt’s got a tough 4 game stretch of Greg Paulus, Notre Lame, Hillbillies, and Cincinasty. We’ll see what they’re made of after that.
This new learning amazes me, Sir Bedevere. Explain again how sheep's bladders may be employed to prevent earthquakes.
After watching most of that Iowa/IU game, I think its just a matter of time before Iowa spins the cylinder and lands on a bullet. You can’t get that lucky that many times in a row and not end up with a hole in your head.
just sayin
Maker's Mark--nectar of the gods...
Well
Unless the game is rigged of course. But yeah, they have Northwestern, OhioSt, and Minn. I think they handle NW, but drop their last two.

Sometimes when you follow your team on many roadtrips, dehydrated, exhausted, and hungover, you miss some things. It’s why we write a DRAFT.

excuses
Always excuses. All I hear/see are the tears falling from our commenters that expect valid blog poll submissions from the lone GT blog in the Poll. They’re sad and disappointed tears. Very sad.

Winfield's Top 10
1. Alabama
2. Florida
3.Cincinnatit
4. Texas
5.Oregon
6. TCU
7. GT
8. Boise
9. LSU
10. Iowa
Yes I have Oregon higher than Boise. It’s a difficult decision that I go back and forth on quite a bit. Everything is a debate…Cincy>Texas? CHAOS!

My thoughts
I think Florida should be back in the driver’s seat at #1. Before this previous weekend, you could have made an argument that Texas should have been ranked #1 because of the relative lack of play from both UF and Bama. While I don’t think dropping 41 on ugag is much of anything, UF still proved that their offense hadn’t dried up entirely. If I’m ranking these solely on their play each without regard for their previous rankings, I’d go UF, Texas, Bama for the top three.
I’ve watched TCU and Cincy a few times now and I don’t think Cincy is the better of the two. TCU plays defense, which is more than any team Cincy has played can say. So, I’d go TCU, Cincy, Iowa, followed by Boise St. Big-10 or no, Iowa continues to find ways to win, and this last win they opened it up against a team they should have to begin with. I can’t take anything away from this latest Iowa win because it resembles the GT win over Vandy in almost every regard. As for Boise St, they simply are the worst of the undefeateds.
I’d have Oregon next followed by GT. I don’t think we have the defense that would allow us to keep up with Oregon right now, much less stop them full bore. They are playing lights out right now and we have serious concerns on defense. Regardless of the amazing second half adjustments, I’m not sure we could fight back from a large first half deficit against Oregon.
After that, the next change I would have would be keeping Pitt and Ohio St over Miami. I’m not impressed with the Wake win because Miami had not been able to stop Skinner for three quarters and couldn’t score either. As soon as Skinner goes out, Wakes offense sputtered and I have to think that wouldn’t have been the case otherwise.
Finally, Ok St got smoked by Texas and they didn’t move at all in the draft here. That just will not do, so I would drop them to 20. Below would be my final top-20. The remaining five are for replaceable parts. Take CMU out because they got pantsed and replace them with any number of 2-3 loss teams. You could seriously make an argument for and against them all and it would make no difference.

was thinking the same thing about UF that you say right now earlier today as well.
