RankTeam Snark
1
Texas Why, yes...
2Southern Cal ...this is the exact order...
3
Penn State ...these somewhat controversial...
4
Ohio State
...top four teams were in before. Ha.
5
West Virginia
Uh... and I had WVU 13th.
6
LSU Please make up your mind about the sucking.
7
Virginia TechAt least next year will be mercifully devoid of Michael Vick and his chili cheese fries.
8
WisconsinMy great hope for the BlogPoll is that a 10-3 Wisconsin team that played a very tough schedule and beat the tar out of a 9-3 Auburn team ends up, you know, in front of Auburn. Then, and only then, can the BlogPoll declare victory.
9
AlabamaIt's good! Sort of!
10
Georgia
Kyle said it best when he bemoaned the fact that we won't be getting rid of this Big East autobid thanks to the Sugar Bowl.
11
Miami
Christ almighty.
12
Auburn
DNP.
13
FloridaWere handed the game by Iowa with a small assist from Conference USA. Still, 9-3, tough schedule, defense that tends to choke small children to death, etc.
14
TCU Stupid SMU game.
15
Notre Dame Fiesta was a few OSU turnovers from being a lot like that game against the other OSU (Oregon version) a few years back. In the end, ND's best result was a loss to USC. They beat one meh team in Michigan but showed that in reality not even a Super Genius like Weis E. Coyote can make his cornerbacks fast. Worse resume than any of the 9-3 teams ahead of them, thus the harsh assessement.
16
UCLAHard to believe they're 10-2.
17
Louisville
Oversight on first draft.
18
Boston College
Winning the Depression Bowl a tough trick for many teams.
19
OklahomaNot so much of a disaster after all.
20
OregonThe Holiday Bowl: shutting up Pac-10 teams that whine about BCS at-large berths since 2004. And thank you for that.
21
Texas Tech
Hyyyarrr.
22
Florida StateWide everything!
23
Toledo
Sure.
24
Michigan
Best 7-5 team ever.
25
Iowa
Second best 7-5 team ever.

Games I Saw: BCS bowls, Alamo fiasco, Iowa-UF, AU-UW, bits of VT-UL, and some other random stuff.

Help requested: Anything. There is a vast swath after about #8 where arguments are being heard.

Update: Bumped Oregon down and UCLA up (in front of Oklahoma), Added Louisville at #17, revamped the bottom of the poll to be more internally consistent: if I'm going to overrate Big Ten teams it may as well be the right ones. Thanks to commenter statprof for offering a strong argument in favor of the Cards.
