BlogPoll Ballot Week 7... Official

Comments welcomed, as always.

Rank	Team	Snark
1	Southern Cal	Wavering a little bit here but Texas' marquee win over OSU is losing luster by the week.
2	Texas	I am required by law to include the words "monkey" and "back" and "off" in this section of the poll. So: BACK OFF, MONKEY!
3	Virginia Tech	What should have been a functional DNP against Marshall was close for a half, but given that their offense has always been bad I don't think it's particularly surprising or troubling.
4	Georgia	Okay. I'm a believer. Watching UGA throttle the Vols was impressive. There are a large number of giant angry defensive linemen in the SEC this year and Georgia appears to be playing 13 of them at once.
5	Alabama	DNP.
6	Florida State	Again a supposed functional DNP goes somewhat awry.
7	Miami	Functional DNP vs. Duke.
8	Michigan State	DNP.
9	Notre Dame	DNP.
10	Florida	Another wobbly day at the office for Leak.
11	Penn State	The offense is a tiny increment better and the defense is just as good, so Penn State is squeaking out wins instead of losses this year.
12	UCLA	Largely unsure of exactly what to do with these teams.
13	LSU	Functional DNP vs. Vandy. Sorry Vandy, but you lost to MTSU: functional DNP you are once more.
14	Boston College	Beat UVA soundly.
15	Cal	Shoulda won. Did not.
16	Ohio State	Ohio State was the one team I pegged exactly: despite Troy Smith's heroics against Michigan he's a far below average DI QB, and he's wasting Holmes, Ginn, and a spectacular defense all by himself.
17	Minnesota	I want chicken, I want liver, meow mix meow mix please deliver.
18	Auburn	DNP.
19	Wisconsin	51 points to Northwestern. 42 points to BGSU. Michigan scores 20. Ugh.
20	Texas Tech	Fluky win over a flukily undefeated team.
21	Louisville	Crushed a not-awful UNC team.
22	Oregon	Er... now is the time on BlogPoll when we grab whoever's left.
23	Tennessee	Utterly dominated by Georgia.
24	Colorado	Put the nail in the A&M coffin; only loss to #7 Miami.
25	Georgia Tech	It's either them or some mid-major, and they have three wins over not bad teams, including Auburn, and one shoulda-won against NCSU. It's unfortunate that the Golden Tornado/DJL detente had harsh reality intervene.

Dropped Out: Arizona State (#11, "a third loss will be met with harsh reassessment"), Michigan (#24)

Games I Saw: Michigan-Minnesota; PSU-OSU; UT-UGA; last bit of GT-NCSU

Help Requested: What should I do with Cal and UCLA? Any better suggestions for the tail end of the poll?

Update: Commenters make cases for UCLA and PSU so they rise a bit at the expense of LSU and BC.
