Let's go Sooners!

Completely agree.

I so love the regular season for my Sooners but so hate the bowl season because I know something horrible is going to happen everytime.

So can someone explain how USC ends up with more points in the voting than they had last week when they have a by week and Georgia dominates Central Michigan?

If you're going to start letting cupcake performances have such a large impact week-to-week, shouldn't what's good for the goose be good for the gander? They let OSU drop 2 spots (when Florida really wasn't impressive against Miami) but USC gets the grandfather? Anyone who's ever made a claim of East Coast Bias must be loving this season so far--can't find a highlight from Georgia, Ohio State, or Oklahoma.

UGA got more first place votes as well. No one really cares about a game against a non-BCS opponent, unless you lose it.

Yup. I think East Carolina is continuing to make believers out of people!!!!! I feel like they've been slighted a bit in this weeks rankings.

The two-time defending MAC champion is a much more impressive win than Virginia. USC dismantled UVA because they are awful . What kills me is that the same people who are voting for USC now based on beating down a terrible opponent and the ones criticizing Georgia for dominating Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl last year (which was reflected 3 weeks ago in the polls.)

UVA is the bottom of the ACC, which might be the #6 BCS conference. Beating a bottom-feeder ACC team is so much more quality than beating the champion of one of the top non-BCS conferences (WAC, MAC, CUSA.) Central Michigan was so good GameDay and CFL had no problem making the game an upset watch.

The media talks itself into circles and at the end of the day they're rewarding the team that got prime ESPN coverage rather than ESPN 360 coverage. How many highlights have we seen from Georgia? If this play (roughly 15 seconds into the clip) doesn't make SportsCenter's Top 10, what should? If Beanie Wells could do it, it would be the only clip we saw for weeks.

I could live with USC getting #1 after the first week because we didn't run up the score against Southern (remember when teams used to put their 3rd and 4th strings in for the second half so their opponents could get some work in to prepare them for their seasons? Did Mark Richt miss the save-the-date for sportsmanship's funeral?) USC didn't play this week and we dominated a better team and yet USC gets a further lead in the polls. Fantastic.

I can't wait for Arizona State so we can put the Pac-1 back in its place on national television.

gsu, you(GT) have a guaranteed win next week vs Miss State. State has the worst offense in the history of college football. Auburn tried to give MSU the game last night but State didn't want it. MSU gained 114 total yards. Who ever heard of a 3 -2 score in college football?

Miss State's offense doesn't even compare to NC State's.

Hah. Not to mention those guys are going to come out FIRING after that tough loss this week. I feel bad for the MSU players.

I do too. MSU has a decent defense. But they need some help from the offense. The defense will not be able to stay on the field 70% of the game, week after week. I say GT wins 38 - 3. You going to the game?

Stack System’s marketing materials inflate apparent swing speed and distance gains through selective presentment of data without qualification that purported gains are not the result, in whole or part, of its training protocol and products. * Yes, I'm joking about abbreviating both "SS." SuperSpeed wants: A judgment that the Stack System has disseminated false and/or misleading information in violation of federal and Illinois law. The deletion of all false advertising distributed and recall of all packaging containing false advertising and a requirement that Stack System issue notices (written or otherwise) to that effect to all current distributors and retailers of its products and all distributors with whom Stack System has done business in the past eighteen months. Written confirmation within 30 days of an injunction detailing the manner and form in which Stack System has complied. An order that Stack System disseminate corrective advertising informing consumers, the trade, and the public of Stack System’s unlawful conduct. 3X all profits received by Stack System as a result of its unlawful actions. 3X all damages sustained by SuperSpeed (as a result of Stack System’s actions) The cost of the action All reasonable attorney fees All other relief to which SuperSpeed are entitled and such other or additional relief as just and proper. Oy.
    • I'm not doing this for the hundred and twentieth time. Sorry in advance, but you get the massively abridged version. Those guys also benefited from the weaker/shallower fields. Also, Watson's career doesn't overlap with Jack's like many think it did. Tom is nearly a decade younger. Jack won only like four majors only after Tom won his first. And Tom won more British Opens than he did all three of the other majors combined, as it was his specialty (not Jack's). Arnie's career similarly doesn't overlap Jack's as much as many think.   Jack would also tell you Tiger was the better golfer.
    • Weaker depth of fields for sure. Some of the top level guys with Jack were pretty awesome. Tom Watson had the lead on the 72nd hole of the 2009 British Open, an event where Tiger missed the cut. Old Tom was almost 60 years old. Jack himself at age 58 finished Top 10 at The 1998 Masters and scored better than Tiger, who won The Masters by 12 shots just a year before that.   The success of both Tom & Jack in older age gives some hope that maybe Tiger can find the magic again at some point. He’s still trying to figure out how to build the stamina for 72 holes after the leg injury. I would love to see him jump on the leaderboard in the coming years. I know a lot of people have given up on him at this point, but that was also true from 2014 to 2017 with the back injuries. He had a hell of a resurgence in 2018 & 2019. Would be fun to see it again. 
    • Perceptive rules question by caddie unlocks Tour pro’s ‘dead zone’ relief A perceptive rules question by Xander Schauffele’s caddie, Austin Kaiser, unlocked “dead zone” relief during the Wells Fargo Championship.
    • I ran across an interesting new clip, Johnson Wagner went into that spot with the Referee who allowed the relief.  Apparently there was a perfectly reasonable shot to be made, as Johnson clearly demonstrated, so relief from the TIO was perfectly appropriate.
