Oregon vaulted Boise State in the polls today, and trails Ohio State by 77 points in the Coaches'.
As we all know, polls don't matter, but there's a certain satisfaction in seeing the Ducks pass Cupcake U. so early in the year. The Broncos host Mid-America Conference Toledo this week, which lost to Arizona 41-2 in their season opener. They follow that with conference tilts at San Jose State and home against Louisiana Tech.
Ohio State has Indiana in the Horseshoe this Saturday, then travels to #20 Wisconsin. The Buckeyes got one first place vote in both the Coaches' and AP polls despite struggling with the Minor Scuffling Illini in Evansville.
Of course polls don't matter. The Ducks play Washington State in Pullman in this week's Super Bowl, and that's all they're concerned with.
I like your name for BSU- Cupcake U. How appropriate. Also, they can't take a punch.
ReplyDeleteThe Ducks have earned their ranking as far as I'm concerned. We traveled 3 time zones to play an SEC team in a very difficult stadium and beat the hell out of them.
Then we wen to ASU in the 90+ heat with high humidity and played a sleeper that hjad outplayed the #10 team in the road just the week before. And take away 2 TD's from phantom calls, we beat them by over 4 TD's. Then, we get the #9n team at home and with many experts predicting our downfall, we kicked them around as well.
