I kinda like the flow ive been having, post my early leans for the week, do the research and post my plays for the week, then post what i learned from the week.

SC defense is better than I thought, but not as good as SC touts would lead us to believe. Ark has been putting up 2-3 tds against everyone, whether it be SC or Utah st or vandy, and Nebraskas play calling was obviously not testing SC, it was only playing for the cover or the over, either way, calahan wasnt going for the win.

OSU is anything but invinceable. They came out looking sloppy and Cincy beat themselves in the 2nd half. Look for them to drop a game to Michigain or another Big10 sneak.

Miami is garbage as is FSU. As VT D has been scoring about as much as the avg team in the NCAA(exagerating, but not by much) One has to wonder, how easy will the road be to ACC championship? VT is solid, and that cannot be said about BC, FSU,Miami, or clemson even. True they havent faced anybody, but I definitely think they are undervalued right now at 15. I can see them going undefeated. Not likely, but at 20-1 odds(or whatever it is) for them to win NC I think its worth a shot.

ND is overated. We all knew it, Michigain proved it.

Auburn is the best team in the nation! They were stingent on D against one of the best offenses right now. They moved the ball both through the air and on the ground when the needed to against one of the best defenses in the country. They are fast, strong, and experienced at most positions and their coach has the utmost confidence in them! Look for them in the NC game. I can only hope it be a rematch of '04

Auburn got every single rotten call the refs made in the game. I guess you missed these. Every single time LSU had a big play it got called back for something that never happen. Calling a team that needed home field advantage and every single bad call to help them the best team is a huge stretch. I thought they were a good team today but man did they get help.

I think the SEC is a good conference...just a little over-rated...I would love to see more games between them and the Big Ten teams...

Sun Tzu they are also the best team i watched today. Just dominated in all fazes and everytime they moved the refs kept pushing them back(2nd) half). They should have won by fifty.

Michigan was the best team I saw today. Even though the irish were overated, still tough to go into that stadium and dominate a quality team.

auburn and lsu looked like sec studs with great defense, but that won't win them a bowl game. they couldn't hold usc or ohio state to single digits and their offenses are better than average, but not by much.

usc did what it had to do and beat nebraska without breaking a sweat.

i hate usc, but so far it looks like whoever wins michigan st./ohio st will play usc in the big one, barring auburn running the table, and then you get a clusterfck and auburn gets left in the cold again.

And you are gonna also have WVa/LVille bitching because one of them will be unbeaten too...

I dont know, at Louisville's pace they wont have a single starter left by the time they make it to a bowl game, and WV defense cant stop anyone, so I am already looking ahead for that games over.

You are all definitely entitled to your opinions about Auburn, but beating LSU, whether at home or away is quite an accomplishment. And we will see how didferent teams matchup throughout the season, but I find it hard to believe Auburn cannot take USC on a neutral field. I would even say LSU could take USC, but again we will have to see. SC has a long road ahead of them, as do all these teams.

Call me anti USC, because I am, but I was much more impressed with Michigan and Auburn than SC.

Michigan looked awesome today!!

SC looked pretty good. Nebraska's D-line is the best USC will see this season.
If they can play injury free thru the season they will likely be in the NC game.

Auburn got all the calls in there favor today.
not the most impressive win(7pts scored) but they did get the win!
If they run the table NO WAY they get left out this time

Louisville & WVA are fakes!!
