College Top 10: Sept. 7, 2010

Posted: Tue 3:26 PM, Sep 07, 2010

My Top 10 for September 7, 2010.

Welcome back college football, we missed you! 

What a weekend to open the college football season -- from the overtime thriller between Utah and Pittsburgh Thursday night, culminating with a great come-from-behind Boise State win Monday night against Virginia Tech.  Don't forget Baylor winning its home opener in front of the third largest crowd ever at Floyd Casey Stadium. 

With every team in my Top 10 going through the "eye test" this weekend, two things stood out.  Boise State looks better than I thought.  The Broncos must now dominate their opponents the rest of the way if they want to play in the BCS title game.  On the flip side, Florida doesn't look as good as I thought.  They struggled with Miami (OH) in the Swamp on Saturday -- they entered the fourth quarter with only 26 yards of total offense!  The offense really lagging behind, after losing so much on that side of the ball.

I have a feeling they'll be more moving around for next week's poll -- 4 teams in my poll will have ranked AP opponents this weekend -- Alabama (Penn State), Ohio St (Miami), Oklahoma (Florida State) and Miami (Ohio State).  But, it does mean we'll get another great weekend of college football (Yes!)
