JP25 Update

Wow. Texas is playing as good a football as you could hope to expect from any team right now. The chemistry and leadership on that team is now officially championship caliber. So in response I have slightly reshuffled my top 3. Alabama is looking more and more beatable every week, and with the loss of their nose tackle, "Mount" Cody, they are going to be vulnerable in the coming weeks.

The Mountain West Conference is no longer a back burner league. The quality of teams in this league appears to be deeper than the Big East, and at least on par with the ACC this season, so they deserve to have three teams ranked.

Top 25 (last week, record)
1. Texas (3, 7-0)
2. Penn State (2, 8-0)
3. Alabama (1, 7-0)
4. Oklahoma (4, 6-1)
5. Georgia (5, 6-1)
6. USC (8, 5-1)
7. Ohio State (10, 7-1)
8. Florida (6, 5-1)
9. Oklahoma State (13, 7-0)
10. LSU (9, 5-1)
11. Utah (12, 8-0)
12. Missouri (7, 5-2)
13. Kansas (14, 5-2)
14. TCU (25, 7-1)
15. Texas Tech (15, 7-0)
16. Boise State (18, 6-0)
17. Tulsa (20, 7-0)
18. Georgia Tech (21, 6-1)
19. Boston College (--, 5-1)
20. Pittsburgh (24, 5-1)
21. Virginia Tech (16, 5-2)
22. BYU (11, 6-1)
23. Arizona (--, 5-2)
24. Oregon (22, 5-2)
25. South Florida (--, 6-1)
