NCAA Power Rankings

1. USC - Domination of Virginia in Charlottesville impressive. Will improve as Sanchez gains experience.
2. Georgia - Lots of talent. Pedestrian QB play and a brutal SEC schedule will be tough on the Bulldogs.
3. Oklahoma - 50-0 halftime lead tells us OU was considerably better than Chattanooga...but I think we knew that.
4. Ohio State - The Big 10 is pretty bad again, so they'll probably punch another ticket to a BCS Championship beatdown.
5. Florida - Maybe the most speed in the country and won't rely on Teabow as much this year.
6. Missouri - Offense in mid-season form, defense made Juice Williams look like Tom Brady.
7. Texas - Soundly manhandles a pretty decent team, immediately has more off-field problems.
8. LSU - Refused to let Appalachian State shock the world again. Lots of talent in Baton Rouge.
9. West Virginia - Won't miss Slaton much. Pat White and Noel Devine will provide plenty of firepower.
10. Kansas - Default number 10. Too many of the other big boys struggled.

The Big 12 and SEC are so far and away the best conferences that it's ridiculous. Both can make a semi-legitimate argument for 5 teams in the top 10.
