Pudge Poll #7

id just like to say that last weekend i got 10 out of 10 picks right on the espn fantasy college pickem. not to brag, but ive only been picking 3 weeks and im already in the top 50 percentile. and im three weeks behind some of those chumps. im kinda mad i havent been doing it all year cause i bet id be in the 85-95 percentile. whatever. im a football geek.
25. Oklahoma State (4-1) well how about that. the cowboys sneak back in, mainly because they won without their star wideout dez bryant(for having improper relations with primetime)
24. Oklahoma (3-2) well sammy bradford came back and they rolled over baylor. do you think that it was a good enough tune-up for the red river shootout this week vs texas?
23. UTC Mocs (4-1) i mean a conference road win is big in my book. BJ continues to play very well for the mocs. i hope that they continue to do so. georgia southern this week will be another big game.
22. South Carolina (5-1) well they did win, but they struggled something terrible against kensucky. couldnt figure out how to stop randall cobb. this great D that they are built upon has given up some big numbers to some bad offenses. but they somehow beat ole miss....
21. Ole Miss (3-2) well losing on the road to a top 25 team and getting beat by the #2 team i guess doesnt hurt that bad. need a good win from the rebels or they are toast.
20. Nebraska (4-1) beat former pudge poll member missouri soundly. big 12 stock seems to be slipping this year with the exception of okla and texas.
19. YOU PICK- (houston, notre dame, utah)
18. Penn State (5-1) you get no write up for beating eastern illinois like a drum.
17. South Florida (5-0) beating cuse and fsu helps, we will see how they do this week against cincy in a nationally televised game. huge for the big east.
16. BYU (5-1) continues to roll along. two weeks they play the biggest game of the year for either team. tcu vs byu
15. Ohio State (5-1) yeah they whooped wisconsin, but they scored on 2 pick sixes and ran a kickoff back for a td. qb terrell pryor put up crompton like numbers. 5-13 for 87 and no tds.
14. Kansas (5-0) man oh man. same song different verse this week. won again. still havent played anybody. maybe todd reesing will get some heisman hype instead of jimmy clausen.
13. Georgia Tech (5-1) well they ran for 400 yards and scored 49 points. on fsu. now they play vtech in a huge bcs bowl game implications.
12. Iowa (6-0) went on the road to the big house and beat michigan. their D could be legit, well until they play a good team in a bowl game.
11. Oregon ( 5-1) they beat ucla without their qb, rb, and best db. pretty tough when you consider what the qb does for them. good for the ducks and im glad to see them rebound since the upset at boise.
10. Miami (4-1) routed FAMU. big suprise. still alive if they can get some help. will finish in the top ten.
9. TCU (5-0) went on the road and beat triple option team air force. they need to have a big win over byu in a few weeks. head coach gary patterson continues to lead a very good program.
8. USC (4-1) lots of people are starting the best one loss team debate and i have USC 3rd. beat oregon and win another title might get them 2nd. but the media might have their way and somehow get them to the bcs game opposite the sec champ.
7. LSU ( 5-1) getting beat by the defending champs doesnt cost you that much. but i see lsu dropping quickly in the west as alabama continues to dominate. is auburn the #2 team in the west? time will tell.
6. Boise State(5-0) got jumped by a team this week for lack of a weak schedule. could be a theme developing here...get in a real conf boise.
5. Cincinnati (5-0) coming out of the bye week i see them beatin south florida. they question will not be about the bearcats running the table. the question will be if they can A-jump boise in real life, and B- will the media let an undefeated big east team play for it all against the sec winner?
4. Texas (5-0) the longhorns are good. dont get me wrong. and IF...IF they get a win over oklahoma that will def help them out. they just dont seem to have it clicking yet this year. and they didnt look that good until late against...colorado?
3. Virginia Tech (5-1) beat the crap out of boston college and continues to set themselves up for a big big bowl game...
2. Alabama (6-0) i should give them more credit for going on the road and beating ole miss...but i dont. i was really high on the rebels to start the year, but they havent dont anything yet. however...the rebs did slow bama down some- made them kick 5 field goals, but they didnt do anything on offense. 3 pts really? tide has everything needed for a national title run this year. and next. write that down.
1. Florida (5-0) how good are the gators? they go on the road to one of the toughest venues around...and get a win on a saturday night. something that lsu had won 37 or 38 in a row. oh and this wasnt the typical florida offense. there was almost zero tim tebow. it was all dive run plays with moody, demps, and rainey. a pretty good combo nonetheless. and once they realize that their D was crushing the tigers they just wanted to run out the clock. plus the missed a short fg and didnt even try another. does 23-3 sound a lot better? cause thats about what the score really was.
until next week.
