A great week of college football wielded losses to formerly undefeated Auburn, Georgia, and Oregon. This weekend also killed any national championship hopes that LSU or Oklahoma may have had. Florida and Michigan strengthened their resume as they both put away their opponents while teams ahead of them lost (Auburn), struggled (USC) or are becoming an unintentional victim of scheduling (West Virginia). I believe Florida and Michigan have distanced themselves slightly from USC and West Virginia due to their play on the field and their quality victories. The list of unbeatens have moved down to 6 in the Top 10 and some of them will fall with in fighting in the coming weeks. Other unbeatens that are trying to move up the ranks are #21 Boise State (who will be a victim of their scheduling and their feeble attempt last year at trying to step up in competition when they got spanked at Georgia), Missouri and Rutgers. Tennessee, Texas and California really stepped it up this week and stood out among the one loss teams. Arkansas makes their entry into the Top 25 with their shocking defeat of Auburn, of course their debacle versus USC still looms over their heads. Next week looks to be very tame compared to this week with Auburn/Florida being the only game that jumps out at me. Will Auburn take out their frustration over the Arkansas game against Florida?
