USC #1 Again on Footblog Top 10

Tuesday, September 9, 2008 Leave a Comment

1(1) USC - Trojans remain at #1 during their off week. Since their offense spent the week going against their defense, they faced a much tougher challenge than Georgia and OSU who faced Central Michigan and Ohio.

2(3) Oklahoma - Impressive offense led by Bradford. Their defense is not where you'd want them to be, but the way they took over the 2nd half, I don't see anyone being able to outscore them.

3(5) Georgia - Dobbs returns an INT for 78 yards. Knowshon was completely unstoppable the whole day. Tough to stop Georgia when they dominate both sides of the ball. Duh

4(4) Florida - I had them over Georgia last week, but their offense didn't impress me much. Their defense was tough, but they shouldn't have been limited to one TD in the first half against a young rebuilding team.

5(2) Ohio St. - I'm still trying to figure out how Lou Holtz can possibly say that the Buckeyes have a better group at tailback than the Trojans. Herron led the Buckeyes in rushing with just 50 yards against Ohio. They had trouble moving the ball against a much inferior team and if it weren't for a muffed punt, they could have easily lost the game. Still, they have great players and may have been looking to far ahead to their big match up on the 14th. Expect them to play like much better next week and cause the Trojans some trouble.

6(6) Missouri

7(7) LSU - Only a hurricane can stop this team.

8(10) Texas - Colt McCoy's performance quickly crushed whatever hope an early 6-0 lead gave UTEP. 20 for 20 passing and 4 TDs can do that to ya.

9(x) Wisconsin - They break in to our top 10 with their beat down of Marshall. Well it was just Marshall, but I like Hill, I like a team who can crush a team after being down. Next week's game against Fresno State should be fun to watch.

10(x) East Carolina - Some would question how a previously unranked team can jump so high on my top 10. They beat Virginia Tech and embarrassed West Virginia. I don't know what else they have to do to get attention. Besides, Auburn at #10 is too high for that team who I see losing big against LSU.

If my rankings can keep going...

69 Chattanooga - Cause I love saying that name
70 West Virginia - Shame on you. Shame on all of you


and that's Week 2's Top 10 (cause do you really care who goes to the Guacamole Bowl?)
