Well, we went from having no blogpoll ballot this week to having two after Scipio emerged from a spelunking adventure through Mammoth Cave National Park with his laptop and a Mint Julip. No word on Clipper Cooper. So this week we get ballots from both HenryJames and Scipio.

1. Texas – Rivalry game tighter than expected. One win away from the BCS championship game.
2. Florida – Win over dead FSU sets up biggest game of the year thus far.
3. Alabama – Survived against Auburn, but surviving is all that matters at this point.
4. TCU – The second best team in Texas gets to the BCS.
5. Cincinnati – The only thing standing between them and the BCS is Dave Wannstedt’s moustache.
6. Boise St – Beat yet another western school not in the Pac 10.
7. Oregon – Three senior starters in their two deep.
8. Ohio State – Really hoping they don’t get anyone south of the Mason Dixon line in their bowl game.
9. Iowa – I hate myself for ranking them in the top ten.
10. Virginia Tech – Not the best three loss team in the country, but they’re the highest ranked.
11. Oregon State – A win over Oregon puts them in the Rose Bowl.
12. Miami – Firmly entrenched as the second best team in the state of Florida.
13. Georgia Tech – In a just world a loss to a Marc Richt-coached team would keep them out of the BCS.
14. Penn State – Joe Paterno is still coaching. Someone needs to tell him.
15. Pittsburgh – Dirty Sanchez vs Cincinnati Bowtie
16. Nebraska – No James Brown on the Husker roster.
17. LSU – Can you fire a coach who goes 9-3?
18. Houston – No Houston coach has won 11 games since Bill Yeoman.
19. Texas Tech – Almost lost to Baylor.
20. Cal – Remember when Jahvid Best was a Heisman candidate?
21. Stanford – That dude from ‘Life Goes On’ is a pretty good running back.
22. USC – I give Pete Carroll credit for not showing any mercy against guys who wear sweaters and play acoustic guitars.
23. Oklahoma State – Pity vote.
24. West Virginia – Did anyone think they would be better than Michigan at this point?
25. BYU – Losing to Florida State is almost as embarrassing as telling people you’re a Mormon.

1. Florida – Florida OC starting to get it and use weapons better.
2. Texas – How much of our dominant D has been facing bad QBing?
3. Alabama – Squeaks it out against their Aggy. Chizik attended the Les Miles school of clock management.
4. TCU – Played poorly and still won by 41.
5. Cincinnati – Suspect D, but Pike was fantastic.
6. Oregon – This Thursday for the Rose.
7. Ohio State – Boring Big 10 champs waiting to face OSU or Oregon in Junior Rose Bowl.
8. Boise State – Watched Nevada game and I’m just not buying it. Broncos will be “vindicated” playing a slow-paced Big 10 runner-up closely in Fiesta.
9. Iowa – Will they or Penn State go to Fiesta?
10. Virginia Tech – Hammer UVA after slow start.
11. Georgia Tech- ACC title game features losers to two 7-5 SEC teams.
12. Oregon State – Play the Ducks for the title. Most underrated Pure Hate Rivalry in CFB.
13. Miami – Impressive against dangerous USF.
14. Pittsburgh – KO’ed in Backyard Brawl. Cincy for the Big East title.
15. Penn State – Lamed their way to possible Fiesta Bowl berth.
16. LSU- Lucky to beat Arkansas.
17. Nebraska – Struggled with Colorado. O Rly?
18. Houston – Pasted poor Rice. Title game with East Carolina upcoming.
19. California – Don’t be surprised when Washington upsets them in Seattle.
20. BYU – Better pray they avoid a team of athletes in bowl.
21. Stanford – Harbaugh has had a magical year.
22. USC – Heats up the UCLA rivalry with a taunting victory. Upcoming Arizona game no gimme.
23. Oklahoma State – Blew a BCS bowl. Badly. Gundied.
24. Texas Tech – Pathetic effort against Baylor. WTF.
25. West Virginia – Devine inspiration against Pitt.
Flippd a coin, went with Carthage bane.

As spotty as the Big 12 has been this year, I think it’s going to be worse in ’10. Record-wise, it’s probably going to look like the ACC.
Funny thing: TCU/Boise/Cincy are all going to be in serious conflict over our game this weekend. If we win, all 3 have great chances at a BCS game. If we lose, at least one will definitely not get in. John Nash would have a field day with this one.

Zac Lee is the white James Brown.
And those photos are just how I see HJ and Scipio, only more handsome somehow.

Our offense is what I imagine it being if we plugged in Zac Robinson and asked him to read coverages every down.

6 undefeated teams.
0 one-loss teams.
Crazy.

That’s what I love about reading BC. You never know when someone is going to slip a “game theory” reference in with their “game analysis”!

The most perfect season of college football ever played.
