1. Southern Cal (#1) (4-0) - Stanford - the Trojans were not impressive, but it was one of those survival games....
2. LSU (#2) (5-0) - Florida - an impressive win this week over the hungry Gators may push the Bayou Bengals over USC....
3. Cal (#6) (5-0) - bye - an impressive, yet close win in a hostile stadium....they were fortunate that Cameron Colvin let the ball slip out of his hands....
4. S. Florida (NR) (4-0) - @ Fla. Atlantic - this is my poll and I am moving the Bulls to number 4....earlier this year they won at Auburn, who went into The Swamp and beat Florida....the win over W. Virginny caught people’s attention....
5. Florida (#3) (4-1) - the Gators lost to a very good Auburn team....a win this week over LSU will have them back in the top 3
6. Ohio State (#9) (5-0) - @ Purdue - beating up on YSU, Akron, Northwestern, and Minnesota does not mean that you will get ranked over Florida just yet....
7. Wisconsin (#10) (5-0) - @ Illinois - a nice win over Michigan State....but like the Buckeyes, the Badgers have a weak non-conference mark....
8. Kentucky (#12) (5-0) - @ South Carolina - the Cats magic ends on Thursday night in Columbia, S.C.....
9. Oklahoma (#5) (4-1) - vs. Texas - the Sooners blew a 24-7 lead....they might have been peeking at Texas with that 17-point lead....
10. Boston College (#13) (5-0) - vs. Bowling Green - Matt Ryan may be the best quarterback in the nation...
11. West Virginia (#4) (4-1) - @ Syracuse - yeh, I know Pat White got hurt in the S. Fla. game, but the Mountaineers were flat overall....a huge disappointment for a team with huge hopes...
12. Oregon (#7) (4-1) - bye - the Ducks had the misfortune of having the ball bounce the wrong way....
13. South Carolina (#15) (4-1) - vs. Kentucky - Spurrier got the ship back on track after the loss to LSU....they can gain some momentum by beating Kentucky....
14. Georgia (#16) (4-1) - @ Tennessee - the Dawgs took care of business against Ole Miss....they face a tough task at Rocky Top this week....Tennessee is looking for a big win....this will be a big test for Georgia...
15. Texas (#8) (4-1) - vs. Oklahoma - the Horns may be over-rated....they barely beat Arkansas State and C. Florida.....this is a watershed game against Oklahoma to determine how the rest of their season goes....
16. Purdue (NR) (5-0) vs. Ohio State - this may be a short stay for the Boilermakers as they take on the mighty Buckeyes....
+1 Illinois (4-1) vs. Wisconsin - a win this week will make the Fighting Illini a legitimate team for the Rose Bowl....
