Sure, there might be no reason for bama to be ranked RIGHT NOW, but for some of these teams to be ranked so highly (Va Tech, Nebraska, Georgia even), and then not fall out in favor of undefeated teams shows me that the system of ranking teams is HIGHLY flawed and depends almost entirely on assumptive reputation, NOT HOW THE TEAM LOOKS ON THE FIELD.
If anyone was paying attention, the Bama offense looks to have banner talent this year; awesome depth at RB, two stellar WR's, and an O-Line that has held its own thus far. The defense looks hungry again this year-stay healthy guys. And there's a spark waiting to ignite in the return game in Javier Arenas (love that guy)...
The polls are so bogus this early I know. But a lot of complete polls have Bama in the 50's... and that is BALONEY!
