Half the teams in College Footballs Top 10 lost this weekend
Edited on Sun Sep-30-07 01:02 AM by sasquatch
:wow:
Well the good news is my Buckeyes will be in the Top 5 again but for the first time this season. Some of the college football pundits also predict Wisconsin will be in the top 5 as well making that Ohio State vs Wisconsin match-up very enticing.

1. Not enough for me.
I'd have liked to see everyone with at least one loss at the end of the year to really throw this so-called national championship up in the air.

2. They need to really throw the hammer down to force a playoff game

7. well, I didn't say #1. Just the rep alone is worth a 9 or 10. Haters. nt.

8. There's a good chance of that - their strategy is working perfectly:
everyone is underestimating them now, they'll sweep the rest of the season and vault straight into the title game. Unfortunately, the game will be cancelled in the second half when the Superdome roof collapses under the weight of all the guano from flying pigs... ;)

9. Their t.v. deal guarantees a pre-season top 10 ranking every year.
If they can scrape together 2, maybe 3 wins, I say top 10 is realistic.

11. Yet another reason that pre-season polls are a joke.
There should not be a poll until October 1 at the earliest.

12. I'm afraid you're probably correct
But then again this is the first time I can think of where you've had this many Top 10 upsets. Michigan's season is almost a complete joke right now and Ohio State's defense is way better than it was last year.
