College Football Top 25 (Week 3) 1-5

1. Florida Gators

Last Week: Beat Tennessee 23-13


Notes: Florida got the Vols best shot and survived.  Many think this should have been worse, but this is a rivalry game and the young Vols showed a little taste of what Lane Kiffin thinks he is building.  A good, solid win for the boys from Gainesville.


2. Texas Longhorns

Last Week: Beat Texas Tech 24-14


Notes: This was a huge game for the Horns and their fans.  Tech ruined their chances at the National title last year, and they got their revenge this year.  It was a solid, but not dominating win.  I think that says more about how Tech reloaded than it does about the Horns.  Texas is solid all around and looks like they might have found a lead back.

3. Alabama Crimson Tide

Last Week: Beat North Texas 53-7


Notes: The story is the same on Bama.  Their defense is strong and it looks like their offense has reloaded, but the whooping North Texas doesn't prove anything.  A good team, but it remains to be seen if they are really a top 5.  If so, the SEC title game could be fun this year, again.


4. Penn State Nittany Lions

Last Week: Beat Southeaster La. 52-6


Notes: *See Alabama.*  Penn State is a good team with some veteran leadership, but it remains to be seen if they are this good.  Frankly, both of these teams are here by default.  Blowing out SE La. means nothing.
 

5. Mississippi Rebels

 Last Week: doesn't matter because they just lost to a mediocre South Carolina team


Notes: Is there a doctor in the house?  Does anyone know the Heimlich.  National TV, top 5 ranking, CHOKE, GAG, COUGH......DEAD.
