Week 7 Blogpoll

Before you yell and say where is so and so team, please read my polling philosophy and then yell afterwards.

1. Alabama - The Crimson Tide could use their QB to get squared away a little bit better, but with their dominant defense and rushing attack they will not falter against lesser opponents. They will hold them down with their D and eventually wear them down with their O. Quality Wins: Virginia Tech(n), @Ole Miss, South Carolina

2. Florida - Ws are all that matter in the greater scheme of a game. Sometimes they come in unimpressive and slightly ref helped fashions. The Gators only won by 3 this weekend against a solid Arkansas team, perhaps it was their lone rough game that they still managed to come out of victorious. Quality Wins: Tennessee, @LSU, Arkansas

3. Iowa - The worst thing to happen to the Hawkeys this weekend was Ohio St. losing as they are their lone big opponent remaining. Virginia Tech losing is one more road block out of their way to the BCS title game, but they're really gonna need Texas to lose simply because they have only one big game left that has been severely diminished in stature. Quality Wins: @Penn State, Michigan, @Wisconsin

4. Texas - We finally welcome Texas to the Party. The problem with the Longhorns is that their OOCs are complete shit and Oklahoma is likely to lose multiple more games throughout the season with Landry Jones as starter. In addition, Okie St. no longer has Dez and TT is their best current win but they also lost to Houston. If UF and Bama run the table to the SEC title game, Texas will never reach #2 in this poll. Quality Wins: TT, Oklahoma (n)

5. USC - I decided to have the Trojans jump Boise St. because even with the Washington loss they have three victories that Boise St. would almost certainly have come out with a loss in. Quality Wins: @Ohio State, Cal, @Notre Dame - Bad Losses: Washington

6. Boise State -Quality Wins: Oregon

7. Oregon-Quality Wins: Utah, Cal, @UCLA

8. Cincinnati - I'm starting to think that USF isn't exactly good. Quality Wins: @Rutgers, @Oregon State, @USF

9. Houston - Texas Tech is good, they beat them and Okie St. Quality Wins: @Oklahoma State, Texas Tech, @Miss St. - Bad Losses: UTEP

10-12: The ACC 3 - It's a three way tie with Miami, VT, and GT now after GT's win and there is little to differentiate any of the three so we bunch them together.

Honestly after 12 its just a mess of what to do with these teams. BYU has a miserable loss to FSU and beat a faltering OU. TCU beat 3-3 Clemson and 3-3 UVA. LSU beat UGA and Washington two ok teams. TT beat Nebraska, so did VT. I wanted to kick out Ohio State but to bring in whom? Georgia? Certainly not Kansas or Oklahoma or Utah, teams with no quality wins. Everybody in the Pac 10 seems to be 4-2. It's just a mess.

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.
