BLOGALICIOUS COLLEGE FOOTBALL TOP TEN-PLUS
1. Kansas(def. Oklahoma State 43-28) - I'd call this week a trap game if it weren't the Cyclones. Still, you have to think that some minds are on Kansas City.
Next opponent: Iowa State
2. LSU (def. Louisiana Tech 58-10) - expect a similar score this week, even on the road.
Next opponent: at Mississippi
3. Oregon (Idle) - Dixon's out, the Ducks are down 20, and the Ducks' backup is Ryan Leaf's brother. On top of it all, Erin Andrews is wearing something frumpy. It's all going to hell.
Next opponent: at Arizona (11/15)
4.5. Missourahoma (def. Texas A&M 40-26 and Baylor 52-21) - no, it's not an AT&T ad, though I'd accept renumeration for furthering their ad concept. I know the Sooners beat the Tigers and thus should be billed ahead of them, but Missouri did beat Colorado, something Oklahoma couldn't do. So I'm calling it even for now, illogical or not. If nothing else, next week will break the tie.
Next opponents: at Kansas State [Missouri] and at Texas Tech [Oklahoma]
6. West Virginia (Idle) - still on track for a big conference title game against UConn, assuming they can do what the Huskies couldn't do and top the Bearcats on their field. UConn better not screw things up by losing to Syracuse.
Next opponent: at Cincinnati
7. Ohio State (lost to Illinois 21-28) - there are worse things than a loss to the Zookers. Losing this week at home, for example, and giving Lloyd Carr the retirement gift he'd most want.
Next opponent: Michigan
8. Arizona State (def. UCLA 24-20) - they get some time off to contemplate a game thick with Rose Bowl implications, should this Oregon-Arizona game keep going the way it is. This could be the only time all season that Sun Devils fans are rooting for the in-state rival.
Next opponent: Idle
9. Georgia (def. Auburn 45-20) - is there still a possibility that the SEC East could end in a four way tie? Because that would be awesome. Of course, things have to go south for the Bulldogs this week for that to happen, but Andre Woodson has a track record for that sort of thing.
Next opponent: Kentucky
10. Mississippi State (def. Alabama 17-12) - Sylvester Croom finally gets his team to break through, putting their second straight win over the Tide on the mantle with wins over Kentucky and Auburn. And they're bowl eligible, to boot. Congrats to one and all.
Next opponent: at Arkansas
109. Miami(lost to Virginia 0-48) - OK, you're 5-5, but you get blown out in the last game ever at the Orange Bowl? What the hell happened to you? I hated you at the height of your thuggery, but you guys are just sad now. Who'd have thought that the dud team in the ACC expansion would be you lot?
Next opponent: at Virginia Tech
