Two Weeks Down and USC Is Still #1

Uh..... why in the world is USC still #1 ?

LSU beats the daylights out of VaTech and they still get less than half of the votes in both polls!

While the Hokies are still ranked in the Top 20 after they struggle vs. ECU in Week 1, and suffer a disgustingly bad blowout at the hands of the Bayou Bengals.

Plus, Auburn falls out of the Top 25 (along with TCU and Boise State), due to their loss vs. South Florida, and the Bulls are still outside looking in.


Ugh.

I'm an LSU fan, and I'm not the least bit surprised.

To be honest, I would rather be number 2, no complacency....

I'm praying that we get USC in the title game so we can wax them :pray:

Hey, it's not easy to play Idaho and nobody in consecutive weeks.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that the AP poll is better than the USA Today poll.

Anyone that pays attention to rankings this time of the year has way too much time on their hands, besides USC looked good in practice yesterday. :D

^^You automatically get 3 points just for playing at home.
This space needs to be filled with a new sig...but I'm too lazy to make one.

^Rivals.com has the Huskies losing 20-17. In fact, most odds makers have the Huskies as a 4-4.5 point underdog.

The Huskies will have the home town crowd in their favor and the fact that the Buckeyes are inexperienced at the qb postion, that's about it. OSU is in a differant league as far as talent goes compared to the Huskies. I'm predicting 30-10 for the visitors but actually hope i'm wrong.
