2. Southern Cal (Team of destiny? Or destined to lose?)
3. Virginia Tech (DNP)
4. Georgia (Not dominant, but quietly effective)
5. Alabama (Prothro absence showed in close win)
6. Miami (Best defense in country, with apologies to VA Tech, TX)
7. LSU (Les Miles sucks)
8. UCLA (We’re not big believers, yet)
9. Texas Tech (See: UCLA)
10. Ohio State (Santonio Holmes is a stud)

12. Notre Dame (They were the unlucky ones on Saturday)
