Michigan managed another victory, the Tide rolled as usual, and TEBOW GOT SPANKED!!

[WebbPA]

Yeah Florida won by a huge margin, but do you know how satisfying it was to see Tebow get laid out?!?!?  We rewound it 6 times on the DVR lmao.   Of course ESPN made it their headline, and I heard Tebow's name every 30 seconds until the game ended (he's not that good guys, Florida managed just fine without him)

You must have immensely enjoyed watching Dale Earnhardt die.

[tcco94]

I dont think he meant it in a bad way Webb but Tim Tebow did get rocked pretty hard...and you cant blame anyone because that was a clean hit.

Welll #5 Penn State losses to Iowa. Makes me even more pissed off knowing both #4 and #5 both lost which would have put Cal in even better position but #6 Cal lost to  >:(.

Ah I stoped watching second quater yelling at the TV. 
And that put me in a such a bad mood I didnt want any other games! Only Wisconsin and Cal today. 

[SeanTK]

Ugh...that Penn State game was rough. I think everyone here has aching throats just from yelling at our own team. Our defense performed fine (most Iowa points were scored against our offense unfortunately), but all aspects of our offensive line just were not with it yesterday. Multiple interceptions, too much QB pressure, etc.

[tcco94]

The BCS standings must really be a joke here. Cal drops 18 spots to #24. Thats absolutely BS.

Alabama without question are the best team in Football. The most balanced without a doubt. They've faced a highly ranked team to start. a tough conference foe and despatched them with ease, and they are still 3rd in the rankings behind a team who rely far to much on one player to win, and a team who've faced no-one yet.
Texas have an easy schedule the whole way so unless they suffer a meltdown they should be in the National title game, and it would appear once again Florida and Bama will have to fight it out for the 2nd spot despite both being a whole level better.
I am slightly nervous about LSU, they are definitly a sleeper and could throw a spanner in the works.
This should be the definitive year for showing why a playoff system is needed. How many top 10 ranked teams have now been knocked down because of losses to less ranked/unranked teams?

I agree with you on everything. The BCS standings show that it is really stupid. Not just because im pissed about Cal but for an example when BYU beats Oklahoma because they have an injured Sam Bradford for them to move up to #9 and be in the top 10 when I thought was overrated which is why they lost.

I think on an average about 3 teams in the top 10 have lost and got bumped out if I remember correctly. I dont really think that Cal should have been so low as #6 but they shouldn't be all the way back at #24.  >:(

Its only been 4 weeks so I wouldnt worry about Texas, I hope they lose to an unranked team and see how far they will bump them. 
For you Alabama lovers, im sure your all happy about Tim Tebows concussion (not sure if its going to keep him out) but that might be bad news for Florida fans. Next week is a MUST win for Cal or else this season is a throw away and the only thing ill look forward to is the Hiesman Watch. 

[BigTruck]

I'm going to miss next weeks games, I'll be in the field training my reservists, but here's hoping for another Michigan win, and we already know the Tide will roll 

[WebbPA]

Neither Florida nor Alabama has had to face an evenly matched opponent.

Florida had a weak first half against Tennessee but that's the only criticism I have.  Alabama hasn't played a tough schedule to date but is beating its opponents (including Arkansas) by huge margins.

Florida lucked out and gets next week off (time for Tebow to heal although it looks like his injuries weren't that severe) but has to play at LSU on October 10.  That's their toughest opponent until Alabama.

Alabama plays LSU at home on November 7.  After Florida beats LSU they won't be #4 any more but they will still be formidable.

Other than playing LSU and each other I don't see anything standing in the way of either team going undefeated.

My pick (duh) Florida, but I think last year's team was better.

[tcco94]

Well some of these top teams for the first few weeks arent playing big teams yet so the season is just starting with the great games to come.

Game of the week this week SHOULD have been Cal v.s. USC but now with Cals drop Coach Tedford better get my Bears this win or you wont be seeing alot of posts from me anymore...only for Jahvid Best. 8-)
