My top 10 right now:
1. Alabama
2. Florida
3. Texas
4. Boise
5. Cincinnati
6. USC
7. TCU
8. Oregon
9. LSU
10. BYU

Not even the names on the jersey. I just look at the colors. If Cincinnati or Boise played Oklahoma tonight, I'd take Oklahoma and that's even with the backup quarterback. With Bradford, I'd take Oklahoma by double digits over either team. You'd honestly take Boise or Cincinnati over Oklahoma? Over USC?

Neutral field? Yes and yes. This is just an OK USC team by their standards (and they're still 6th in the nation IMO.)
Boise beat a better team than Oklahoma, which currently sits atop the Pac-10 and unless USC gets a little better in a week will likely end the season there, too. I know the rest of their schedule sucks but that really isn't their fault, no one will schedule them. Cincinnati is a tougher defense schedulewise because they've played a bunch of decent-but-not-great teams but I know what I see- they are absolutely pounding people and won't lose before the bowls if Pike is back OK.

I would take Boise at home over OK or USC. USC isnt that good.

I'd take Boise and Cincinnati by double digits over Oklahoma with their backup qb playing. They couldn't beat BYU with him. Boise and Cincy are both better than BYU. ON the blue turf and Landry Jones playing, Boise would beat OU by 21. USC?? They barely beat a down Ohio State team this year and barely beat a Notre Dame team that plays zero defense. What's so great about them??

Damn Hurricanes

Alabama looked like crap. Couldn't get in the end zone at home against Tennessee? There are really no good teams in the entire country. There are just some that are better than others but none that are really good. Bama looked like crap today. Florida looked like it against Arkansas and LSU. Texas could barely beat Oklahoma without Bradford. USC had their hands full with Notre Dame and Ohio St and lost to Washington. Miami couldn't handle Clemson at home. Virginia Tech lost to a Georgia Tech team that completed one pass in the entire game. This is pathetic.

there are some Great defenses but those teams have very average offenses.
this team reminds me very much of Bama's 92 NC team. #1 defense in the country and Don't lose the game on offense. do just enough to win.

I don't think the defenses are all that great. I think it's playing against pathetic offenses that's making them look better. Damn Bama should have lost today. Two blocked field goals in the fourth.

Iowa looks like they are either going to OT or possibly losing here. MSU just executed the hook and lateral to perfection.

I know Texas annually sodomizes Mizzou but they look a bit more like themselves tonight. I think they're pretty good and by the time we get to mid-November they will have been aptly challenged.

TD Iowa. Game over.

4th down and 0:02 to go.
