Another week, another blogpoll ballot. To be honest, I don't quite know what to do with this right now - just not enough data, so fill free to give me a piece of your mind. Except for Oklahoma at #1. It's not changing until they lose or I have an incredibly compelling reason to change it. So basically, until they lose. Let it go (Kyle).
| Rank | Team | Delta |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Oklahoma | -- |
| 2 | Southern Cal | -- |
| 3 | Georgia | -- |
| 4 | Florida | -- |
| 5 | Ohio State | -- |
| 6 | Missouri | -- |
| 7 | LSU | -- |
| 8 | Auburn | -- |
| 9 | Texas | -- |
| 10 | Alabama | -- |
| 11 | East Carolina |  14 |
| 12 | Wisconsin |  1 |
| 13 | Oregon | 1 |
| 14 | Wake Forest | -- |
| 15 | Texas Tech | -- |
| 16 | Kansas | 2 |
| 17 | Arizona State | -- |
| 18 | South Florida | 1 |
| 19 | Utah | 1 |
| 20 | Florida State | 1 |
| 21 | Brigham Young | 5 |
| 22 | California | 1 |
| 23 | Penn State | 3 |
| 24 | UCLA | -- |
| 25 | Fresno State | 1 |
Dropped Out: West Virginia (#13), South Carolina (#22).
In other news, Riley Skinner and Sam Swank were both players of the week. Good stuff - not that I'm surprised.
Jim Grobe is apparently in Bristol today doing various things with ESPN. I guess with the bye week and the day off tomorrow he has time for that type of thing. Should be great for some publicity. He'll be doing a live chat at 12:30 if you want to participate in that.
Game times are out for week 4. Wake will play FSU at 7:00 p.m. on ESPN2. I'm interested to hear your opinions on playing down there in a night game. I guess it worked well last time. Anyone going? I'm trying to decide if I am or not.
Only seen one news link: The defense isn't satisified with their performance. Glad to hear that. I'm sure they'll bring it at FSU.
It's a bye week so we've got some time to kill. If I get a couple hours to spend breaking down the film I'll try to do that. I'm sure we'll come up with something.

Nice job on the poll, but you're on crack if u think FSU is better that Penn State, PSU is a top 20 team.
