blogpoll - Draft - Week 13

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.
