  • USC Move to Number 1

    Does anyone feel there will be an impact on games with the recent leapfrong of USC over Georgia and OSU?

    I ask this because historically voters have not had teams who won leap over other top teams if they in turn have won. Now Georgia and OSU had cupcake teams which they both beat convincingly, and USC put a beating on a lower tier D1 program.

    All that being said, will teams now look to run up to score to insure they in turn don't get passed by in the polls? So we may have seen teams stay on the ground or rotate in reserves early in the 2nd quarter, will we now see teams pour it on through 3 quarters?

    And should this influence our betting of taking large favorites ?

    OSU -35
    Georgia -24.5
    Oklahoma -22
    Oregon -36
    Alabama -31
    LSU -24.5

    Some of us may have stayed away from these games due to the big numbers, or in fact taken the dogs (although I already liked Oklahoma, don't tell KB) but now these teams may put a little extra on these soft opponents.

    Thoughts?

    Normally, I would agree with you. I despise when votes leap teams over other team. IMO this 'rule' doesn't apply for the first game. The preseason poll is a guessing game.

        Polls are useless this early in the season.

          Georgia should never had been number 1 - Florida is better.

          The question is, which SEC team will beat Ohio State for the national Championship this time?

          I think Florida will be the SEC team to beat Ohio State for the championship this next time.
