No fun Delta this week because I had to miss the blogpoll fun last week.
I kept shaking my head as I put this together. South Florida a top 5 team? I think they've earned it but I never would have thought a Florida team called the Bulls would be the highest ranked team from the Sunshine state. I wanted to put Cal at #3 instead of tOSU, but went with the Big Ten squad after their impressive victory over the monotone Gophers.
Kentucky #8? Again, I think they earned it. But I was scratching my head when I made that selection. The rest is a relative crapshoot. Purdue is probably way too high, but I could see them stealing a Big Ten title. I'm also not real high on Virginia Tech, but their only loss has been to the nation's best team, so I wasn't about to bury them in the poll. Bad losses for Oklahoma and Florida (I don't think Auburn is a great team this year) sent them falling in the poll.
For those following my rankings of Minnesota, we are now ranked dead last among NCAA D1 teams in PJS' poll.
