College Fish Wrap: Power Rankings Week 2

10. September 2008  - Published by Jeremy Fischer

Let's get right to it, before Hurricane Ike forces me to reschedule this column. 

1. USC:  Didn't play last week, but will prove their dominance this week vs. the Buckeyes

2. Oklahoma:  Rolled up 5 TD passes on a good Cincinnati secondary.  Then broke UC quarterback Dustin Grutza's leg for good measure.

3. Georgia:  Expectedly beat up on Central Michigan.  More importantly, didn't have any significant injuries.

4. Florida:  Miami win moves them up one notch.

5. Ohio State:  O-line doesn't dominate anyone.  That will get them killed against USC Saturday night.

6. Missouri:  Southeast Missouri State was nothing more than a break after having tough Week 1 tilt vs. ranked Illinois team

7. LSU:  Didn't play.

8. Texas:  Good road start to the season against UTEP.  Horns will get unexpected off week this week as game with Arkansas has been rescheduled due to Ike.

9. Alabama:  SEC take note.  Crimson Tide's defense is back, and very good.  10pts. allowed to Clemson, only 6pts to Tulane, and they don't have to run the gauntlet like a Georgia does.

10: Wisconsin:  The Wisconsin Winnebago, P.J. Hill, might be the best runner you never hear about.

BCS Busters:  East Carolina (another huge win vs. West Virginia), BYU

Dorm Room Notes

West Virginia:  Rich Rod leaves for the maize and blue, and the Mountaineers still manage to lose a game per year they have no business losing. 

SEC:  Two weeks in, they are still the best conference in the land.

East Carolina:  These guys are for real.  I guess when Lou Holtz said his son Skip was the best coach in the Holtz family, he wasn't joking.

Cincinnati:  The injury to Dustin Grutza was truly grusome looking.  Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Kentucky has only allowed three points so far this year.  Shouldn't they be in the top 10?  (Read in tone of:  "Exaggerated UK fan optimism and expectation")
