I will never root for Whoregon, even if they play Ohio State or USC.
We have the same family policy.

I do think Colorado will lose plenty of games this season, so it's only prudent we root for them over Whoregon. Let's get Whoregon a loss early in the season, then watch Colorado lose to USC.

Who to root for:
No 1 - Georgia shouldn't have any issues with UAB
No 2 - Michigan shouldn't have any issues with Rutgers, but the sports writers are not impressed with UM up to this point. If the game is too close they could lose a little support.
No 3 - Go Baylor.
No 4 - Go Clumson.
No 5 - USC will dispatch of USC quickly.
No 6 -Tuff one here. If ND wins, they likely jump us in the polls, but if OSU wins, they likely gain points.
No 7 - Go Iowa.
No 8 - We need to motorboat Cal in a big way to get more attention. Another 600 yard 5 TD performance will do the trick.
No 10 - As so many of us have said, never root for Whoregon! They need a loss here, but I would love to see Coach "Prime" lose in a big way.
No 11 - I hate to root for Kelley, but Utah is ready for their injuries to catch up to them.

GO DAWGS!!

Clemson totally choked. USC was in a nail biter in the 4th quarter. OSU wins so we stay at 8th....for now.

Even without others losing, at least one or two of which we should happen over the next couple Saturdays, we should get our chance to move up after beating Oregon Oct. 14th.

The thing that still steams me is how they over-reacted to the Texas win over Bama. It's obvious that Bama isn't the same team as they have been over the last 15 years, but to jump 6 teams is just absurd. These voters need to think things through...maybe instead of moving a team up with a win over a ranked opponent, maybe move the losing team down to the winning teams ranking.

Early in the season those things seem to happen. I agree with you, Bama is not Bama, and it seemed like a big over reaction. But early on they have big swings like that. What will interest me is what happens to the Fighting Coach Primes in Colorado?

Colorado will be motor-boated again this week by USC. The only exception, USC has a shit defense so Co will score.
USC-52
CO-32

Oh no doubt. I meant I will be intrigued to see what the voters do this week after they got completely exposed now that they actually plays someone.
