The BCS Top 25 (Week 12): Oregon Back in Top 5

By ⋅ November 15, 2011 ⋅ 2 comments

1. LSU How vast is the talent gap between Alabama and Western Kentucky? Did LSU even have to try this week? Whoever scheduled that game is brilliant. The Tigers absolutely needed some rest after the massive clash two weeks ago. 2. Oklahoma State As much as I would love for losses by the top teams [...]

The BCS Top 25 (Week 8): Cowboys Sitting at No. 4.

By ⋅ October 18, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Quick note: with the release of the BCS rankings this week, the Top 25 wrap-up will be based on those rankings from here on out. The biggest change will be my shift from complaining about stupid voters to complaining about flawed algorithms. Let’s get to it.

The AP Top 25 (Week 7): Kansas State Sneaks Up Rankings

By ⋅ October 10, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. LSU (40) How dare they give up points to the then-17th ranked Florida Gators. I was once again disappointed that they did not get the shutout. With that said, they seem like they’re playing with more than 11 defenders. Their defense is awesome, and I mean that in the most literal sense. 2. Alabama [...]

The AP Top 25 (Week 6): Wisconsin Jumps into the Top 5

By ⋅ October 3, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. LSU (40) I was legitimately disappointed that LSU couldn’t hold on to the shutout this week. Kentucky never had a chance against them. Assuming they keep winning, the Tigers’ matchup with Alabama looks like it will be the game of the season. LSU doesn’t have an easy schedule in the interim though, with games [...]

The AP Top 25 (Week 5): LSU Claims Top Spot

By ⋅ September 27, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. LSU (42) Not even one week can go by without LSU being involved in a rankings flip-flop with another winning team. It was justified this week though. Their defense is truly terrifying, and their team speed causes problems all over the place. I still have trouble believing Les Miles can win another BCS Championship, [...]

The AP Top 25: Week 4, Boise State’s Smooth, Clemson Hot

By ⋅ September 20, 2011 ⋅ One comment

1. Oklahoma (37) With the win over Florida State, Oklahoma took three first place votes each from Alabama and LSU. They also looked like a team that could win the BCS Championship. Great analyst that I am, I believe they are a really good football team. 2. LSU (14) After their win over Mississippi State [...]

The AP Top 25: Week 3, Auburn and Arizona State Climb in

By ⋅ September 12, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. Oklahoma (32) Without a game this week, the Sooners became the first school to be ranked No. 1 in 100 AP polls. That achievement has very little bearing on this year’s team, but it impressive nonetheless. Good for them. They have a massive game at Florida State Saturday, and with a win they could [...]

The AP Top 25: Week 2, LSU jumps Alabama For No. 2 Spot

By ⋅ September 7, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. Oklahoma (32) The Sooners opened with a convincing win. It was nothing spectacular, but they didn’t have anything to fear from Tulsa. They just went about their business, and now they can prepare for the huge matchup with Florida State next week. 2. LSU (17) After winning the opening weekend’s marquee matchup, it’s tough [...]

College Football: The AP Preseason Top 25

By ⋅ August 22, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Preseason rankings are basically guesses and contribute to the competitive imbalance of college football. However, from a fan’s perspective they are very helpful and give a moderate idea of what to expect from the coming soon. Here’s this year’s preseason AP Top 25: 1. Oklahoma (36) Landry Jones leads an impressive passing attack that could [...]
