    1. LSU
    2. W. Virginia
    3. Missouri
    4. Virginia Tech
    5. Florida
    6. Georgia
    7. USC
    8. Kansas
    9. Ohio State
    10. Oklahoma

    On a neutral field, it's a virtual coin flip as to who wins between LSU and WVU.

    WVU against the D that played tonight could have been ugly.

    i know that i'm probably the minority here but you guys gotta start giving kansas some credit. they play the most solid football out of anyone in the top 10 right now.

    when i say that i mean it as in statistically, and in the areas of discipline.

    If LSU played the likes of a La. Tech for their first 11 games, we would be 11-0 as well. Their SOS is that bad.

    Our stats would be 550 ypg offense and 185 ypg defense.

    Compare and contrast.

    I don't think they beat my top 7 teams on a neutral field.

    Kansas does not turn the ball over while forcing a LOT of turnovers and scoring off of them. Not only that, they never get penalties. Maybe we could learn a little from them...They have won all their games, while maintaining the discipline that Mangino has instilled. If you remember a while ago, a Kansas WR showboated after scoring a TD and Mangino chewed the dude out for a long time on the sideline right after that. They have my respect, they are not only winning, but winning the right way.

    And I would not say you are crazy, either.

    fair enough - but one of the announcers in the Ohio State game yesterday pointed out that Kansas has not played a single opponent who has received a single vote in the AP poll. (I didn't check to see if that's true.)

    I don't think Kansas deserves the #1 spot, but certainly they deserve to be in the Top 5. Lots of teams have weak schedules and few (if any) are undefeated. Hell, Bama lost to ULM. Kansas deserves the respect they're getting for going undefeated. I think LSU should get the honor of outing the weakness of their schedule in the NC game.

    All this doesnt' matter when you play crappy teams. We would look like the best team ever if we played their schedule. OU will beat them.

    My top ten
    LSU
    Florida
    Ohio st
    Georgia
    VT
    OU
    USC
    Kansas
    WV
    Missouri
