Top 25 (Nov 4)

Everyone is blown away by Oregon's performance. Well, despite the fact they did show a lot... I have a different team that finally has to earn my love... and Kirk Herbstreet doesn't even have them in his top 5! Welcome the new #1, Kansas. They've done everything perfectly so far this year, winning 3 big road games and rolling in every game they should roll in. Will the perfect play end sometime soon? Only time will tell. But it's definitely starting to look nerving for both Kansas and teams like Oklahoma and West Virginia. Oregon has now made it through their conference beef and looks quite likely to end up with the 1 loss, which makes them very attractive for the title game... I think their profile matches up well with almost anyone..... and Michigan and LSU basically reduced their seasons to mostly 1 game... both eliminating serious threats (and both poised to lose late in the 3rd quarter).
It really is getting serious time!

Need to be more prudent with my time and not spend hours writing about each team at the moment. If I get enough requests, I'll definitely come back here and do it tomorrow/in the future... but not time attm.

Hav ea good one!
