Slappy’s 25 Things about the College Football Poll
Monday, Oct. 5, 2009 at 3:20pm
1. I’m not understanding why Auburn is so low. It’s taken the Tigers five games to score one point less than it did all last season.
2. Are we penalizing Notre Dame because we’re A) sick of Jimmy Clausen and B) hate Charlie Weis? If USC won three games in the last minute, would it have 11 points in the poll or be top 5?
3. Same idea, different result: Did Michigan get booted out of the poll for losing in overtime in a game they were predestined to lose because of DickRod? Would it have happened to Kansas?
4. Iowa’s lucky, but if Michigan wins, will the Hawkeyes freefall?
5. So you know, Central Michigan’s votes are coming from one person, not a group of people who think the Chippies need a spot here.
6. If Boise and Cinci run the table and the rest of the FBS has a loss, should they play for a championship?
7. Is Stanford worthy of a spot?
8. Does Bama get burned at Mississippi or is Jevon Snead the most overrated SEC quarterback since Tee Martin?
9. The last time Webby’s boys cracked the top 25, they peaked at No. 2. Can USF go that high again?
10. Oregon is No. 14 and hasn’t lost a game since they lost a player. Think Chip Kelly has any regrets?
11. Which team gets the bigger patsy this week: Penn State with Eastern Illinois, Texas with Colorado or Boise State against Bye?
12. Nebraska and Missouri on Thursday night? Have these two programs sunk that low?
13. Deep down, think Les Miles likes Nick Saban?
14. Anyone else waiting for Ohio State to be the team to pop Fraud’s balloon this week?
15. My feet resemble bear paws.
16. OK, they really don’t, but I saw that line on one of these once and thought it was ballsy stupid.
17. Which team gets their bubble burst twice and still goes to a BCS bowl – Virginia Tech, USC or Florida?
18. 13 teams are unbeaten – four in the SEC alone. How many remain standing at the end of the weekend?
19. Do four unbeaten SEC teams mean the league is really good or scheduling is really easy?
20. Think if Jim Delany had to do it all over again, we’d have no Big Ten Network?
21. Think if they had to do it all over again, we’d have an 18-team WAC with divisions instead of two nine-team leagues?
22. Biggest disappointment this season? Georgia? Okie State? Oklahoma?
23. Stealing from Whitlock: Which team will win first – Ball State or Kansas City? I say Ball State; KC doesn’t get to play Eastern Michigan.
24. The dome of the US Capital weighs 8,909,200 pounds of cast iron. (just seeing if you’re all still with me)
25. Tebow or Bayou? Discuss.
