We must have one of the only poll with USC at number 1. USC had less first place votes than Ohio State and Texas but I guess they were the team most consistently ranked high by pollsters.

Thanks for adding the points for the top 12 poll GymMountainEER.

It makes me wonder how far Texas will drop when they lose to the Buckeyes. I think if they play a consistent game and the final score is close, there could be an arguement to keep them in the top 3 even with the one loss. As long as they are below OSU.

Yeah well I don't see Texas in the top 12 after that. Maybe they should just call this season in honor of hunky Matt, "Failure to Launch"
