The first thing I notice here is how weak the ACC is this year.  Only two teams qualified in the Top 25 from the ACC which are Georgia Tech and North Carolina and both are way down in the list at 22nd and 25th respectively.  The next thing you’ll notice is I still have Southern Cal ranked #1 despite the loss to Oregon State.  We’re going to have some more upsets in College Football this season and Southern Cal could find themselves right back into the chase for the Championship.  The AP and USA Today have LSU ranked ahead of Florida but I have the Gators out in front.  These two will meet this weekend and after the game I think you’ll see why I have Florida ahead of LSU at this time.  Another thing I notice is that Vanderbilt is 13th and 14th in the polls but I don’t have this team ranked.  They played a great game against Auburn this past weekend but they’ll get their first loss of the year at Mississippi State this weekend.  This team has definitely over-achieved and it’s letdown time.  I will have a TOP 4* CFB play this weekend!  CFB is now 16-8 67% last 24 releases and TOP 4 and 5 unit CFB plays are now 16-7 70% last 2 years.  My NFL is now 69% on the season!  Don’t you miss anymore winners!
