Discussion:

• I didn’t move West Virginia down; I moved LSU and Oklahoma up to where I thought they belonged.
• The Texas/Cal swap is because I like the way Texas pulled itself together and started taking it to TCU in the second half.
• Most of the rest of the movement in the poll stems from vacuums created by TCU, Auburn, Virginia Tech (who have NOT looked like a top 25 team AT ALL in their two games), and Boise State.
• I have officially purchased a ticket for the Brian Kelly Greatness Express, and I’m guessing that after losing to Northern Iowa 24-13, Iowa State is wishing they’d bought a ticket for the BKGE too.
