Week 9 Blogpoll

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

1. Alabama - I almost jumped Florida over the Crimson Tide this week thanks to the Hokies losing yet again, but after I looked at it some more Bama still deserves to remain at the top. Quality Wins: Virginia Tech(n), @Ole Miss, South Carolina, Arkansas, Tennessee

2. Florida - The Gators put another beatdown on the Richts in the cocktail party. The Bama Gator showdown is only a month away. Quality Wins: Tennessee, @LSU, Arkansas, Georgia (n)

3. Texas - If only Texas had a beneficial OOC win. Quality Wins: TT, Oklahoma (n), @Oklahoma St.

4. Iowa - If only the Big 10 had some impressive OOC wins outside of Arizona. Quality Wins: @Penn State, @Wisconsin, Arizona

5. Boise State - It's the debate in your head that says how can I rank team A over team B when team B has a better record and beat team A even though team A has 4 better wins than team B. For one more week I'm holding with team B, Boise St. Quality Wins: Oregon

6. Oregon- The crushing of USC was quite imptessive. It's too bad the Ducks choked in Boise else I would probably be voting them #1 in the country right now. Quality Wins: Utah, Cal, @UCLA, USC

7. Cincinnati - I moved up Cincy because Rutgers, BeaverU and USF all one this weekend and improved to 6-2, 5-3. 6-2 respectively. When they beat Pitt and WVU I'm gonna have a hard time not having them jump Oregon, Boise, Iowa and perhaps Texas. Quality Wins: @Rutgers, @Oregon State, @USF

8. TCU - Quality Wins: @Clemson, @BYU

9. LSU - .Quality Wins: Auburn, @Georgia

10. Georgia Tech - So Duke is essentially the only team that can dethrone from their ACC Coastal perch... I think it's safe to say their in the ACC Title Game in a few weeks. Quality Wins: Clemson, UNC, VT

11. Southern Cal -This weekend was embarrassing but they still do have three huge road victories over ranked opponents. Quality Wins: @Ohio St., @Cal, @Notre Dame - Bad Losses: Washington, Oregon

12-25 is just a massive I have no idea whats going on disaster that I likely just made a lot of mistakes because I didn't have a ton of time to analyze this... Next week there might be a bit of a reshuffle as I take the time to analyze team by team a little bit better.

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.
