Wow! Cannot believe Ohio St. is ranked above Texas!

Why is that so hard to believe? No Vince Young is worth at least a drop to #2. Besides, the two teams play Saturday night, so it will all be academic after that. I do agree Ohio State might be a little overrated.

First time we've had a #1 vs. #2 matchup during the regular season in 10 years. Can't wait. It's going to be a GREAT game.

Well, mainly because Texas beat USC last year for the National Championship. I would have thought they would have had that #1 ranking coming in to this season! That will be a good game! But a lot of teams are overrated! Just like California was in their BIG loss to Tennessee Saturday. Of course, I will be going for the Longhorns Saturday night, even though I am a Tennessee fan.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. Last year's Texas team is not this year's Texas team. Fair? Probably not, but that't the way the voters see it.
