Rwebb, you went to Broadmoore! Ha, I lived a few streets down from St. Thomas Moore.

I graduated from U-high though.

Don't care for the Trojans

For me its Flori-duh. Game is always my birthdy weekend and a win was a great present.
I am from New Orleans and my wife is an LSU grad.

Because of Saban, Bama has become the most heated rivalry. I think when he walks onto the field in BR for the upcoming game, the earth will shake.

If both are still undefeated, that should be the game of the year.

This is true. Having 1/2 of the conference in the Top 25 and 3 of the top 5 isn't too shabby. The only downside is the tough conference schedule, difficult for any Big 12 team to come out undefeated (like the SEC). Of course, if the first few weeks are any indication, there very well may be a one loss team (at least) in the BCS title game.

I would add "go K-State", but I'm torn. Part of me is hoping we lose every game from now on, so Ron Prince is a goner. I'm sure Texas Tech will be more than happy to oblige this weekend.

Well, it took the better part of the first half, but USC answered the challenge and put a pretty big beat down on the Ducks. Seeing the game in person, I have to say USC looked progressively stronger on both offense and defense.

ANY and ALL of the favorite teams could stumble this year, so I would keep that in mind before piling on USC and the PAC 10.

Can't wait for the "civil war" here...Ducks vs. Beavers. You see, I have 2 favorite college teams. The OSU Beavers and whoever is playing the Ducks.

I believe your memory fades...it was the Beavers who beat USC, 3-0, when USC was ranked #1 and O.J. was the star running back. If memory serves, it was 1964? The game now known as "Giant Killer 1"...

Another great week of football! I never guessed Auburn would go down, despite their non-existent offense. For next week:

No. 5 Texas at No. 1 Oklahoma
No. 17 Oklahoma State at No. 3 Missouri
No. 4 LSU at No. 11 Florida

This is the week that the Big 12 really starts feasting on itself, though I predict that both Missouri and Oklahoma will win.

On a sad note, I need help reserving a domain name. How about "fireRonPrincenow.com". As a KSU fan, I now feel the pain of Nebraska fans, because I know how they felt when Bill Callahan was destroying their team. Watching Ron Prince dismantle the program that Bill Snyder worked so hard to build into a national contender just makes me sick. The beating at home by TTU was the worst in 12 years. The KSU defense has given up over 500 yards in 8 straight games. The offense looks incapable of getting a single yard on the ground, and the offensive line has our pocket passer running for his life. Sad, sad days in Manhattan.

You mean after beating up on an unranked Arizona State? I'm soooooo impressed.

But don't worry, every voter west of the Rockies will put USC #1, because it's their "destiny". How they are currently in the top 10 defies description. Florida and Oklahoma should still be in front of them, because they were beaten by top-10 teams. Oregon State is very much NOT a top-10 team. Not to mention USC's schedule defines the term cakewalk. How many more top-10 teams do they have to beat to win out the rest of the year? Oh that's right, they don't play another ranked opponent. Yup, I'm impressed.......

Matt, you had a pretty awful week on your picks. What did you have, 1 winner in a UNC team?

#1 will most likely go to Texas since Bama (who hasn't been winning big) had the week off, Penn St. #3, then start guessing.

Oklahoma will be in front of USC, not so sure about Florida.

Hook'em Horns! I doubt they get the #1 spot though, they never get credit in the polls.
