eehh. Not so much. There is alot of season to go yet, as you rightly pointed out.
Personally, and this is no shock, I think Alabama should be number one in both polls.
But I am disgruntled.
Some reasonable reasoning suggests that they are virtually unchanged from their championship roster,
They have not lost a game, so they should not lose their ranking. But based on who they have played
and how they have performed, I give the edge to Alabama. But the coaches poll is voted on by not only
people who don't want TX to come too far up should some whisper of blight be cast on a SEC team,
but by people who generally do not see as much football as the AP pollsters do. They vote what they
hear and what they catch on sportscenter. They are busy playing games and during the week, planning
for games. I believe the AP alot more. Alabama is No.1.
Still not sure of who is the best team, but I do not like the way FLA plays. Something stinks about both
how things happen in games and how things are perceived by the officials, or so it seems to the non-FLA viewer.
