PrintBird: Acedarney is not gonna be happy with us this week. Five teams moved 5 or more spots in our rankings as I completely reevaluated every team in the poll.
Winfield: Now that most teams have about 3 games under their belt, I have completely scrapped my old ballot and have done my best to start over so there's a lot of movement. Let's be honest, the top 10 is what really matters and after that's its still a mess, a real crapshoot. I haven't seen anyone who can really hang with or beat Alabama, they stay at number 1. Oregon and Ohio State could be swapped for #2 or #3 but with the Ducks just straight up dropping points from every angle and that dismantling of Tennessee two weeks ago, they get the 2 spot. Stanford gets a big push up to the top 10 because they just look disgusting good as they shut out UCLA and wiped the floor with Wake Forest....Some other people may raise their eyebrows with Texas dropping in my mind to 11 but they aren't winning with enough style points in my mind to give them much credit. Erase the name "Texas" and look at their scores and who they play and you wouldn't give them much thought.

Looks pretty right to me
but like you say the top ten is about all that matters at this point and the rest is too confusing. If I were to quibble it would be to suggest that both TCU and Florida look one or two notches too high. What was you said about Texas could also be said about them.
As I said in response to your earlier blog poll, Alabama is the Super Bowl champion until proven otherwise. But who knows, by the end of the season we may crown someone like Nebraska as national champions. It is a long season.

Stanford
I still think Stanford would have won the game but I can’t believe Wake Forrest playing a game where they kick off at 11pm on their body clock. I have to think that factored in the game a bit. They feel a bit high to me.
UF (although I’m starting to like them because their fans also dislike UGA and FSU) looks like they will either get it together and challenge ’Bama or fall apart when they play a good team.
Haha
I wouldn’t have even looked at this thing except I caught a glimpse of my screen name. Like I said, I’ll check this out later in the year, when things have calmed down. For now, I’ll leave y’all alone and you can throw teams all over the place like a crazy game of chutes and ladders.
