OSU firmly established their grasp on #1 picking up Texas' 14 1st Place votes from last week, as well as, 2 from USC, 1 from ND, and 1 from AUB.

Dannyboy Ayers · Sep 10, 2006

why is USC in the mix they played Fu@&ing Arkansas

scooper · Sep 10, 2006

#3's a great place to be. The Irish play #2. It's in their hands. Win and they're in.

BGIF · Sep 10, 2006

As long as it's OSU, USC, ND in the top 3, ND controls it's destiny.

Look for the SEC to try to break up that threesome.

Dannyboy Ayers · Sep 10, 2006

i think that USC will drop out of the top 5 by the end of the season i give them 2 losses

I think LSU has a shot. The rest will knock each other off.

Dannyboy Ayers · Sep 10, 2006

LSU looks good but I don't see them beating Auburn

The media is having a love affair with them. Any win is a HUGE win for them. They are unbeatable. They are gods!!!

blah...

Dannyboy Ayers · Sep 10, 2006

and is West Virginia going to play anyone this year that has won a game in the last ten years give me a FU@%ing break they should not be allowed in the polls with that weak as schedule

No doubt!! There is NO way they should be ranked ahead of us. They beat up on an unranked opponent and we DESTROYED a #19 team. Doesn't make any sense.

It'll be a war. Too bad it's at Auburn. If LSU wins at Auburn, they deserve to be #2.

Dannyboy Ayers · Sep 10, 2006

Russel looks good but I worry about the D from Auburn and the fact that their running back might be too much for the LSU D

Dannyboy Ayers · Sep 10, 2006

ATTENTION ESPN, ATTENTION: PLEASE get off on USC's nutts there is no more room with all the ban wagon fans allready on them. Thank you!!

guff · Sep 10, 2006

Huh?

Huh?

Week 2 ND receives two first place votes after a lackluster performance at GT Week 3 ND receives one first place vote after hammering PSU.

Go figure

I have to suffer through all their crap...since I live on the West Coast.

ugh

Yeah, but look at who all the votes flowed to: Ohio State, who didn't look too shabby either against Texas. Between Penn State and Texas, I'd say beating Texas is more impressive.

Again, though, it's way too early to be this discombobulated about the polls. And we're basically right back at our preseason ranking anyway, with a chance to knock out one of the Top 3 later this year.

We're fine, guys. We're right where we need to be. Stop couting ballot points and start counting Notre Dame victories. 2 down, 10 to go...

onenybrother · Sep 11, 2006

I agree with Vince, stop worrying about rankings it's to early in the seasaon for that. We keep winning everything will play it's self out.
