It is looking more and more like Florida, UT, and Bama are the cream of the crop this year......everyone else seems to be basically average.

We'll see...

Biggems;2970209 said:its true though....look at all the ranked teams losing to average or below average opponents this season. Actually the upset trend has been going on ever since the 2006 season. I mean there were always upset, but not on the level that there have been in the last few years. Honestly, the top level programs and their fans can no longer count on all the lesser conference, and even the lower tier conference, opponents as a W. They have to actually show up and earn it more and more these days.
I will say that it does make for some entertaining football.
I feel a playoff system would make it even more exciting. If Conference Champs made it to the playoffs, it would allow for better non-conference games. Florida would no longe schedule Furman or Wofford. Texas would no longer play North Texas. Florida could play USC in non conference and Texas could play Alabama. It would be awesome for the fans.

We came back and shut out the next two opponents including a Tulsa team ranked #1 in Offense last year. Meanwhile, Texas has only played one fairly decent team in TT and struggled part of that game. I would say there are a couple more good teams this year besides the top three.

If OU beats Texas next month, will you still say that? If OU barely loses to Texas, will you call Texas a great team that barely beat an average team like you claim OU is? Curious....
