Neither team is clearly number 1, most people seem to say that bama has played better this year but Florida started number 1 and shouldn't fall till they lose. Arguments can be made either way. Bama has played a bit better schedule to this point than Florida imo and will have the better schedule by the end due to the east being way down this year and VaTech being a better OOC opponent than Florida State.
Have you watched a Florida game this year? They are doing what it takes to win but they don't look like the same dominating team they have been when playing SEC opponents (see LSU, TN and ARK games). Last week you were saying SC would win and had bama's number and now bama is not impressive because they only beat SC by 2 touchdowns? SC has a great defense and is a Top 25 team. FL barely beat an unranked (but good) Arkansas team that Bama absolutely destroyed. I have no problem with people voting FL #1 but to suggest that they have clearly been more impressive than Bama this year is laughable imo.

This logic is rediculous. Just because they barely got by Arkansas they aren't playing good. For one the Arkansas team that showed up against FlA was much different than the one that showed up against Bama
You forget when you're number 1 you have a target on your back everyone plays you there best all year.
You simply cannot compare an SEC team one week to another saying "oh we destroyed them, they should" because every fan in the SEC knows there are no gimme games
Bama Looked real impressive against Va. Tech.. Weren't they loosing the whole game?
I don't think that Bama looked impressive against South Carolina at all. They won, and thats great and I'm not sour about it, people forget they are the 2nd ranked team they should win...And they didn't dominate South Carolina They were leading by 7 points a majority of the game. There offense only scored 13 points...
