Wow. Was that huge statement by Oklahoma or what?
I’m not sure what I’m more impressed with - the margin of the win or the fact that the Sooners held Texas Tech to just 21 points.
So the big Sooners win bumps them up a spot. Tech drops a few, but I refuse to drop them out of the Top 5 because I think they’d beat both Alabama and Penn State.
Without further ado, here are this week’s Top 5:
1. 
2.
3.
4
5.
FLORIDA - The Gators basically took this week off playing Citadel. Nice how that scheduling worked out. Tebow played less than 2 quarters and Florida still put up 70.
OKLAHOMA - I watched the entire first half with my jaw touching dropped on my bar stool. 42-7 at half? This was certainly a statement game for Oklahoma who many think are the better than Texas despite the head-to-head loss.
USC - Not that a win over the Irish would mean much anyway, but USC’s slim title hopes were shot with Notre Dame’s loss to Syracuse. In case you missed it, and if you live outside LA you probably did, the Trojans smoked Stanford this weekend.
TEXAS - Let the griping begin. I’ve covered the Big 12 mess before, but Horns fans are fuming that Oklahoma jumped them in the polls despite the head-to-head win.
TEXAS TECH - Let’s just hope the embarrassing loss at Oklahoma doesn’t ruin the rest of the year for the Red Raiders. They belong in a BCS Bowl game.
On the cusp (in no particular order): Alabama, Penn State
Don’t mention Utah to me. Please. Let’s get serious.
