It's clear, the teams' destiny is in their own hands.

I think there is a good chance Bama can overtake Texas in the poll. But, a lot of that is dependent on what kind of season LSU and Ole Miss has before we meet.

If we assume both teams remain undefeated, and then Bama wins both games, the BCS rankings will likely have the Tide and the Gators at #1 and #2 again.

If we assume that Texas and Florida remain undefeated, we'll meet Florida in the SECCG. A win there puts us in Pasadena.

It bothers me when I see fans tell each other, "one game at a time." Hell, there isn't anything wrong with a fan looking ahead. After all, we don't suit up and play on Saturdays.

But, with this team, it's all about taking care of the business at hand. If they do, things will work out in the end. And, that's very evident in the polls even though we are only three weeks in to the season.

I see it both ways, but agree with you on this. As fans, it is more or less in the 'job' description.

That is why the term fan is short for FANATIC. It is a fanatic's job to look ahead and as Terry said, for the team to take care of the business at hand.
