One, two, three, four, five!

Well, we’ve got 1 full weekend of college football in the books. And 3 of the 4 HLS pollsters have submitted ballots. If the 4th pulls one together, this may change a bit, but I suspect this is a pretty set order.

1. Southern Cal
2. WVU
3. Florida
4. Texas
5. LSU
6. Cal
7. Oklahoma
8. UCLA
9. Georgia
10. Wisconsin
11. Ohio State
12. Penn State
13. Rutgers
14. Georgia Tech
15. Virginia Tech
16. Louisville
17. Auburn
18. Boston Freaking College
19. TCU
20. Clemson
21. Arkansas
22. Oregon State
23. Texas A&M
24. Tennessee
25. Nebraska

Also receiving votes: Oklahoma State, South Carolina, Boise State, Oregon, Miami, Hawaii, and, somehow, Michigan.

Notes: Yeah, SoCal didn’t actually look like the best team ever, ever, ever, but they didn’t give any reason to knock them either. VaTech, however, didn’t exactly look like they were going to be world beaters against ECU. We were apparently all very impressed with Georgia Tech last week. I wonder why. Nebraska makes an appearance in the poll. Maybe they’re what bounced up when Michigan eventually splattered all over the floor after their free-fall out of our and just about everyone else’s top 25s. Clemson also jumps into our T25. They may be that good, or FSU may be that bad. We’re not sure. What we do know is that they’ve got C.J. Spiller, and nobody else does. Also, none of us voted for ND. Hey, we’re “Her Loyal Sons,” but this is the HLS Totally Non-Homer Poll. Hopefully, come next week, we can feel less guilty about our poll.
