I was expecting Oregon to rise even higher than 8 ...

we easily hop Oregon back if we win on the road at Alabama ...

That said, after watching Oregon last night, I think Oregon is the best team in the country right now.

Interesting that there is only 120 points seperating #4 and #9 ...

It's basically a big jumbled mess from 4 to 10.

So here is the conference breakdown for teams in the top 25:

Pac 10 = 4
Big Ten = 4
ACC = 3
SEC = 3
Big 12 = 3
Big East = 2
Wac = 1
MWC = 3
Ind. = 1 (ND)
C-USA = 1

Man this poll is garbage.

What do you guys think of this:

Oregon beating USC was bad for us (in the "we win out" scenario).

If USC HAD won out...

With USC and LSU having one loss, we would be able to argue:

1) We avenged our one relatively close loss
2) We beat a team that beat them

Now with Oregon, the arguments might get uglier:

1) Oregon smoked the same team we beat by one score
2) Undefeated Boise St. beat Oregon

So, Oregon would have an argument AND Boise...

We still probably get the cred we need if we win out, but...

Oregon deserves better. Does anyone in the top 10 have as impressive victory (blowout) than the Ducks?

USC will have to lose 8 games to fall out of the top 25. They got bum rushed yesterday and barely fall at all.

USC falling to 12 in the AP is a joke

Seems like folks are penalizing LSU for their game against Florida when our offense stunk.

The way Oregon has been blowing out teams they should be way higher. They lost to Boise in the first game of the year and since then they've been ripping a new a-hole in every team they play. I think that Oregon could beat every team in the top ten (as of now). But LSU still has room for improvement and I still see a Texas/LSU BCSNCG

It's simple, if LsU wins out the Tigers are in.
