Default Top 10
This is a crazy college season so far. Just curious to see how others would vote if they had one for the current top 10 teams. Mine would be:

1. Texas
2. Florida
3. Alabama
4. Oklahoma
5. Va. Tech
6. Houston
7. USC
8. Oregon
9. LSU
10. Miami

Before anyone laughs or riducules this, try your own and see how hard it is. First thing I'm sure people will wonder is how Oregon is ahead of Boise St.? Try your own.

I'm okay with this. I could see Iowa going far. And Cinci is a good team.

You've got Notre Dame too low. They clearly are #2 behind Florida.

And Temple 7th? They just smoked SUNY Buffalo. That has to be good for top 5, at least.

I'm biased against ND. Temple's non conference schedule is too SEC-like. Army is a sleeper. Beware the Wishbone.

They will beat Michigan. Michigan State really isnt all that good. WI and OSU will be tough. I think thier only loss will be OSU.

VT isn't far behind them. One thing is for sure...if their defense doesn't force turnovers, a very mediocre team will knock them off this year.

At least UNC's offense had a stellar performance today

has been very disappointing this year.

nd is playing mediocre teams at best and barely getting by. VT's defense is legit.

iowa --- outside looking in


Houston wasn't considered a powerhouse this season, so i don't know why the pollsters thrust them into the top 15 with their win over OKSU. They beat TT (non-ranked) by 1 point and throttled northwesteast south state, so a previously unranked team is now justified being put in the top 15? pollsters just ran a little too much with this team

Their defense is very legit. Bud Foster is amazing, but if their defense doesn't produce turnovers like they were unable to against Duke, they will lose again this year, most likely to a very mediocre ACC opponent. (Hopefully UNC )
