NCAA Week 2 Power Rankings

Remember this is all about Quality Wins so until USC thumps Nebraska this weekend they aren't here yet.

1. Louisiana State - Yes I know Sean Glennon sucks but that LSU team looked pretty damn good this weekend and his O-Line didn't give him much of a chance. The game was essentially over by the start of the 2nd quarter and then LSU let in rain down on the Hokies the remainder of the game. Good thing for the rest of the SEC and around the country that Les Miles is coaching LSU and usually finds a way to blow a game or two, cause they look good.Quality Wins: VaTech

2. Oregon - If App St. didn't shock Michigan last weekend their is no doubt in my mind I would have Oregon at #1. Their defense looked good enough, but Dixon looked out of this world this weekend. Quality Wins: Houston, @Michigan

3. South Carolina - Man did I enjoy the vid of the Gamecocks taking it to Corso this weekend. He is a moron. The Cocks went into Georgia and took out their division rivals and now have a head start on the rest of the teams in the SEC East. Good for the Ole Ball Coach.Quality Wins: @UGA

4. South Florida - No way the Big East won a solid out of conference game? They schedule those things? Who knew. And South Florida hasn't even really been mentioned as a contender for the Big East over Quality Wins: @Auburn

5. California - After the opening week big matchup versus Tennessee the Bears went to Colorado St. for a testing road matchup and squeeked out a victory. It may not have been by the most impressive of margins, but that's typically a tough place to play. Quality Wins: Tennessee

6. Oklahoma - So at first I had Oklahoma down as winning and then super smart Simon decided that he needed to pick an upset this weekend and well instead of taking the logical choice and pick Oregon because they have a black QB and Michigan can't stop athletic QBs, I was in denial and picked the U over Oklahoma. Bad move.Quality Wins: Miami

7. Clemson - The Tigers weren't overly impressive in their win this weekend against Lousiana Monroe but still cling onto the head start they have withing the ACC after their opening week win versus the Seminoles. Quality Wins: FSU

8. Texas - Looky here the Longhorns reemerged this weekend and handled their business. Everyone in Texas and Oklahoma if they weren't already thinking about the Red River Shootout are now. Both of these teams should be undefeated then and it will decide the Big 12 South. Quality Wins: TCU

9. Washington - Ty Willingham, 2 wins & 1 win versus a ranked opponent. Charlie Weis, 0 wins and 2 throttling at the hands of ranked opponents. Tyrone must be laughing his ass off. The problem? Their next 5 games are against Ohio St., UCLA, USC, Arizona St. and Oregon. With two later contests against Hawaii and Cal. Tell your AD to ease up on you a bit. Damn. Quality Wins: Boise St.

10. Appalachian St. - The miracle boys of week 1 look like less home run hitters after Michigan was throttled by Oregon at home. Eventually they will fade of the rankings since they will get no more quality wins this season, but for one final hoorah I'm leaving them on the board. Quality Wins: @Michigan

11. Wisconsin - This spot could have been one of many because no one really stood out in a large group of teams. I'll give it to Wisconsin because I think Wazzu could be a solid squad this season and a win at UNLV could be deamed quality at the end of the season. Quality Wins: Wazzu

Dropped Out: UGA and Auburn with losses to new entrants Southern Florida and South Carolina, Missouri the Illinois win doesn't quite stack up after week 1, WVU same with their win over Western Michigan, Wyoming same with their win over UVA, & for GaTech well ND blows.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Ranking the New York Jets Historical Helmets

There's no way you can't go with the Helmet they won the Super Bowl in. You just can't. Next, I really don't understand why they don't where the helmet with the Jet as their throwback uniforms. That helmet is awesome. Then I'm going with the Helmets from the 80s because it's the classic feel and the white face mask is 10 times better than the black one. And the rankings continue until you get to... The Titans Helmet. I hate everything about those Titan uniforms. The Helmets are boring and the colors are GOD awful. Navy blue and Mustard? What the hell is that. Disgusting. If they wore those unis when I was a kid I'd probably be a Giant fan, and be much happier with my life in football.
