Here's my thoughts on week 9:
When you look at this week as compared to prior weeks it was really boring. No real upsets. I know UConn beat USF but not as good of an upset as UK beating LSU.
I thought UGA going on the field was a real statement by Richt. Knowing how upset he gets by his team being flagged for penalties, I think he was sending a statement to Meyer and the rest of the Gators that UGA was not afraid of them.
Did not get to see Oregon or ASU in their wins. For that matter have not seen those teams all year and I agree with Herbstreit on this, teams in the west are at a grave disadvantage to the voters on the east because we just don't see their games.
I was shocked at how easy OSU defeated Penn St. I'm beginning to believe that OSU is better than I thought, but one thing for sure Tressel can coach, no doubt.
UT beat a good USC team and looks like Phat Phil will save his job by winning the SEC east.
Here's my Top Ten:
1. The Ohio State University (like I said I think they are better than I think they are)
2. LSU - before you start crying SEC, I think they are the class of the league, and I think they deserve to be #2 in the best conference in the country and will probably win the SEC West and the conference championship Game.
3. Boston College - Because I think they have the Heisman Trophy winner in Ryan.
4. West Virginia - They are coming on strong and if they had not had 6 turnovers at USF they would be #1.
5. Oregon - Haven't seen them play but they did go to the Big House and win.
6. Oklahoma - talking about the most overrated team in America, this is it.
7. Arizona State - either them or Oregon will fall out next week.
8. Kansas - can you imagine OK - KU for the Big XII championship and we are not talking basketball?
9. Missouri - Of course the tigers would like to play in the Championship game.
10 Georgia - After they way they manhandled UF how could they not be in the Top Ten.

I do the very best I know how, the very best I can, and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out right, what is said against me won't amount to anything.
