does anyone else find it a bit alarming that USC catapulted 5, I repeat, 5 spots in the coaches poll for beating a team they were supposed to beat? The same team that UGA beat in their own stadium just a few weeks ago? Call me a kook, but it looks to me like the biased pollsters are going ahead and making sure the Trojans make up ground they won't get later on down the season against teams that will not be ranked, much like ASU wasn't. What a complete and obvious travesty.

Please, someone convince me there's not a conscious effort by the pollsters to make sure there's not another SEC champion this year. I'd love to hear it.

well if you ask the Gumps, nobody will jump them because they are ALABAMA and have tradition and Bear Bryant.

dont really understand this either. im fine with them keeping their spot as did uga. we traveled 3000 miles to look just as good as they did when asu still had shite to play for. frick the voters. i dont really mind the rankings right now bc i know itll all play out, but i just hate the bias.

Penn State, Texas, and Alabama moved up.

Missouri and LSU both lost.

Texas Tech had an ugly win over Nebraska who just got blown out by Missouri last weekend.

They jumped BYU because of wins by both Virginia and Ohio State yesterday.

No use trying to convince you if you believe something that insane to begin with.
