NCAA Week 2 Power Rankings

Remember this is all about Quality Wins and Bad Losses so if you lose to a top ranked team its not going to kill you, if you lose to Arkansas St. in the opener it will haunt you the entire season.


What an absolute bore of a college football weekend. Ohio had a chance to pull off an amazing upset but folded and the only really entertaining game to watch was a battle of Florida schools, one that did not include Miami, UF or FSU.

1. East Carolina - There is no arguing the Pirates place on this here poll. Nobody in college football has put together two bigger wins in the opening weeks that the Pirates. They knocked off the Hokies in dramatic fashion and pummeled the Mountaineers. These two wins, minus a bad loss, will keep the Pirates in this poll for a long time. Quality Wins: VT, WVU

2. Alabama -Week of mediocre victory against Tulane but the Clemson throttling carries through. Quality Wins: @Clemson

3. UCLA - A week off for the Bruins leads to a stationary spot. Quality Wins: Tennessee

4. Utah - Beat the pants off of UNLV after knocking off Michigan. Quality Wins: @Michigan

6. Mizzou - Followed up the win over captain Zookers with a blowout victory over Double Directional Missouri St. Quality Wins: (n)Illinois

7. Cal - Followed up their solid win against Michigan St. by beating Wazzu 66-3. I don't think Wazzu is very good this year.Quality Wins: Michigan St.

8. Vandy - With all that talk from Lou Holtz I would have you know thought the Gamecocks would throttle the Commodores. Alas Doctor Lou got it wrong.Quality Wins: South Carolina

9. USC -UVA is probably garbage but no one else really has big wins so USC will remain and after saturday either the Trojans or the Buckeyes will vault to near the top of this poll. Quality Wins: @UVA

9. Fresno St. - A much deserved bye week after traveling cross country. Quality Wins: @Rutgers

10. Arkansas St. - They followed their week 1 win by putting up 83 points against SWAC school Texas Southern. They were leading 52-0 at one point before half time. that's fun.Quality Wins: @Texas A&M

11. Georgia Tech - I have no idea how good BC is going to be this year, but we shall give GT credit for knocking them off atleast for now. Quality Wins: @BC

Dropped Out: Nebraska, Bowling Green

Noticeable Absences: The Majority of the AP top 11.

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.
