For a third straight year College Football's Harris Poll has extended me an invitation to be a Top 25 voter (1 of 114 in the country). I am honored to be trusted with such a huge responsibility. It's a role I am passionate about and take very seriously as the Harris Poll is a huge part of the BCS equation that determines who plays for a National Championship. I will continue to make my votes public on this blog site. Check in each Sunday morning to see how I voted. Feel free to leave your thoughts, praise and/or criticisms in the "comment" feature on this page. Below is how I voted in the first "official" Harris Poll of the college football season (although I have kept a "Top 25" log since day one). I continue to vote Texas #1 because I love teams with senior quarterbacks with a "chip" on their shoulder. I think the "Horns" believe they were robbed last year of a national title shot and they will play like they have something to prove. So far, so good. Colt McCoy and company haven't been tested yet with games vs. LA-Monroe, Wyoming, Texas Tech and UTEP but I have seen nothing that makes me second guess my preseason prediction of a Texas raising the Sears Trophy in January. Florida has been impressive too and will benefit from a week off after Tim Tebow was taken to a hospital with what was believed to be concussion in the Gators' win over Kentucky on Saturday night. Next up for Florida is a date with LSU in what should be a Top 5 showdown on the Bayou. The teams I am most impressed with through four weeks are Virginia Tech, Boise State and Oregon. Even with one loss (34-24 to Alabama in week 1) I am ranking the Hokies #4 this week after demolishing Miami (who I had at #4 last week) on Saturday a week after rallying past Nebraska. Boise State continues to roll and won't be tested again until Oct. 14th at Tulsa. And finally, Oregon (a team Boise St. beat earlier in the season) was so impressive in a 39-point throttling of California vaults all the way to #12 in my poll this week thanks to back-to-back wins over Top 25 teams (Utah & Cal). Rank # 1: Texas Rank #20: BYU |
