NCAA Week 12 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.

Not very much movement in the power rankings due mostly to an incredibly boring weekend of college football.

1. Texas Tech - Headed to Sooner territory this week. Quality Wins: Kansas, Texas, Okie St.

2. Alabama -#2 is never a bad spot to be. The next two games are against Miss St. and Auburn both very winnable games. Then the tester against Florida. Quality Wins: @Georgia, @LSU

3. Texas - Hoping for an unimpressive Sooner victory. Quality Wins: Oklahoma(n), Mizzou, Oklahoma St., Kansas

4. Florida - Gave Papa Ball Coach a beatdown. Quality Wins: LSU, UGA(n) Bad Loss: Ole Miss

5. Oklahoma - Week off and now host Texas Tech in a make or break game. Quality Wins: Cincinnati, TCU, Kansas, Nebraska

6. USC - Still hoping someone knocks off the Beavers. Quality Wins: Ohio State, Oregon, Cal

7. Utah - Boredom weekend for them. Quality Wins: @Air Force, Oregon St., TCU

8. Penn St. - Indiana is terrible. Quality Wins: Oregon St., @Ohio St.

9. Oklahoma St. - The Mizzou win is carrying through pretty nicely. Quality Wins: @Mizzou

10. Boise St. -Another easy victory. Quality Wins: @Oregon

11. Georgia - Losing to Auburn would have been piss poor. South Carolina isn't good and neither is LSU so they flip flopped with Okie St. Quality Wins: Vandy, @LSU Bad Loss: Florida(n)

Dropped Out: TCU

Noticeable Absences: Ohio St. will not be ranked in the power rankings at any point this year.

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...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
