Around SBN: Yu Darvish Diagnosed With Mariners Fever

Blogpoll Ballot: Week Five

Cam Newton: good at football.

Without further ado:

Tons and tons of poor performances by good teams (or at least teams we thought were good) this week, and the 6-7-8 of Florida, Stanford, and Auburn is the primary beneficiary.  Boise and TCU move ahead of Oregon because the Ducks allowed 597 yards of offense to Oregon Arizona State; Boise moves ahead of TCU, in turn, because their win over Oregon State was much more convincing than TCU's.  Still, relatively little separates these teams.

I put MSU at 23, which almost caused me to win the Straight Bangin' award for undervaluing my team, since the rest of the poll put MSU at . . . 22.  Oh.  Strange week in the Blogpoll at large -- read all about it here.

Bad Link?

The link at the end of the article (“read all about it here”) sends me to an error message that says “404: The page you were looking for doesn’t exist.”

Am I the only one having this problem?

I kind of know what you mean...but

Oregon State had a busy weekend didn’t they? Shouldn’t they be ranked just for playing the number 3 and number 4 teams in the same weekend?

The Ducks actually played Arizona State.

Erm, yeah.

Got my thoughts tangled.

Why is everyone so high on Miami

They roll over Florida A&M, admittedly they crush a Pittsburgh team (that has since been proved horrible) and they lose by 12 at Ohio St even with a garbage time TD. What in that resume deserves a top 20 ranking? Their QB completes almost as many passes to the opposition as to his own team. I fully expect Miami to lose at a very solid Clemson team this week.
