Glad to see that Notre Dame is having a respectable season. It was great to be there to see them win in Ireland, but it's even better to see them now 5-0! With all the losses yesterday, I think #5 in the AP today is not too optimistic. I really think they have a team that can beat both Stanford and USC this year, who have proven themselves more vulnerable than expected, especially on the road. Not saying they are GOING to beat them, but it's more hopeful this year than in many seasons past. I'm having a hard time coming to grips with the fact that ND has a great defense this year. I've harped on the D for so long that I'm still shocked when they don't blow a 4th quarter lead. Manti T'eo is going to be sorely missed next year.
West Virginia: Geno is an AMAZING talent. No doubt. He's my Heisman guy right now. However, how does your QB score EIGHT touchdowns, alone, yet your team still only wins by 7 points? If anything happens to Geno, WV is sunk. They are a one-trick pony, and will be exposed sooner or later. However, as long as Geno is playing, I guess a win is a win is a win.
I'm honestly surprised LSU didn't lose by more yesterday. I'm not sure what that says about either LSU or Florida...
I honestly couldn't choose between Alabama and Oregon right now. I'm leaning slightly more towards Oregon, just because Alabama has to get through the SEC. I think they can, and will, do it. However, conference games in the SEC have the habit of producing upsets on a regular basis. Oregon hasn't even stumbled yet this season, that I can think of. They are quick and high-scoring with multiple threats. As much as I'd like to see the SEC keep the National Championship, I'd be putting my money on Oregon if the game was taking place next weekend.
Can't believe we're already starting the BCS next weekend!
