What BBN said about it

  1. Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorGeorgia is back at number one this afternoon, with sixty-six of a possible seventy first-place votes, the Big Lead says, after Texas lost by three to unranked Oklahoma.

  2. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentTexas lost one game and went from first to seventh. How does a ranking fall six spots when nobody pushed it?

  3. Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorLook, that's a family in crisis. Six spots!

  4. Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorOregon lost a second game and fell out of the poll entirely, and Kentucky climbed eleven after beating LSU thirty-five to thirty-four in overtime on a two-point try.

  5. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentOregon got deleted? There's no appeal button?

  6. Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorNone.

  7. Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorAnd in the pros, the Bears lead Atlanta thirty-one to twenty-three with five forty-one left in the fourth, and Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay are tied at sixteen with one fifty-five to go.

  8. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentGeorgia got sixty-six votes out of seventy. Four people looked at all of that and picked someone else, and I want their names.
