COLLEGE FOOTBALL POLLS


The college season is upon us. Can fall be far behind? It seems that the three polls, the AP, USA Today Polls and the ESPN.com Power Ranking poll all pretty much agree. The interesting thing is if you go down beyond the top five selected, Georgia and Florida State come up exactly the same, along with Michigan, South Carolina and Arkansas. who almost came up the same.

The football season seems a little strange without Ohio State and Penn State not being up their in the rankings, for obvious reasons. When will Notre Dame and Georgia Tech come back to glory? Brigham Young and Missouri also seem conspicuous in their absence.

If I had to pick my own poll, I would definitely pick LSU to be top dog in any poll, but injuries, academic achievement and actual play will decide the final outcome.
