The USA Today website is not updated yet... but it's cool that we moved up 4 spots!!!

Good to see Auburn back in the top 25. Cant believe that USC only fell to 7, that will be one to worry about. They could easily be a 1-loss team that gets in the national championship game over an undefeated team. I think its definately fair at this point for us though. We didn't do enough to stand out, but we didn't hurt ourselves with a loss either. We'll have to work out the bugs and win again next week.

USC.... what a joke.

USC.... what a joke.

Add BC, Oklahoma, and OSU to that list.  Call me when you play someone, guys.

5 is right... do I like that we are tied with Ok, no, but that's not worth being bothered by.

USC?!?!? What a joke. How do you only drop to seven after you lose at home to an unranked, crappy stanford team, playing with it's backup QB?

[snarling Bull]

Wow

[Buller64]

Cincinnati could complain, that was a good win on the road for them and they only improved 3 spots.  And this week we are above UF (14).

Exactly.

What a joke.

Sounds about right for us. I cannot believe that they have Cincinnati that low. They should be at 14 at least, if not higher.
