Personal polls for 2012 season

[BB73]

There isn't a BP poll this year, but folks can post their polls at any time; which of course allows their choices to be debated.

My poll is based mostly on what happened in week 1, rather than preseason expectations - so the preseason poll is almost meaningless to me in filling this out. I allow for a great deal of movement in the poll over the first few weeks. It's tough to know how good or bad some of the opponents really are; but I dropped Oklahoma, Wiscy, and Florida all of the way out after they struggled against teams that have traditionally been rather weak. Also, TSUN dropped all of the way out after being completely outclassed.

My poll after week #1 (it is NOT a guess at what the final poll will look like, it's based on what's happened so far):

01. Alabama
02. USC
03. Oregon
04. LSU
05. West Va
06. tOSU
07. Clemson
08. Okla St
90. Sparty
10. Fla St
11. Notre Dame
12. Nebraska
13. Georgia
14. Utah
15. Arkansas
16. Ariz St
17. Tennessee
18. Mizzou
19. Louisville
20. S. Carolina
21. Va Tech
22. BYU
23. Baylor
24. Nevada
25. Texas

You are wrong. Not enough $EC teams in the top ten! ESPiN told me so.

1. Bama

I didn't see enough other games. But I do know the following:
Michigan doesn't belong in the top 20
Ohio State doesn't belong in top 10 if they can't clean up pass defense
Penn State - HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Virginia Tech doesn't belong in top 15
I don't think any other Big Ten team belongs in the top 10. Yes, I've considered Sparty and Wiscy and Indiana.
Oh - maybe Nebraska can be in the top 10. Let's see how they play the rest of September. They need to clean up their defense though. Southern Miss QB ran all over them for the parts I saw.
