There Can Be Only One!
(Maybe)

After seven weeks of play, we are down to just six undefeated teams in Division 1-A of college football and all have not played their seventh game yet.

#1 Ohio State is now 7-0 and atop virtually all the polls including the new BCS rankings. And this is supposed to be a rebuilding year? The Buckeyes face off against Michigan State on the road this week.

The University of South Florida is 6-0 and number 2 in the AP and BCS rankings. Not too shabby for a school that didn’t even have a football team 11 years ago. The Bulls are on the road to New Jersey to face Rutgers this week.

#3 Boston College is 7-0 and looking pretty strong. They’ll still be undefeated next week since they have the week off.

#12 Arizona State at 7-0 is the only undefeated team in the far west. With USC and Cal out there, who’d have thunk it. They too have the week off and so will remain undefeated.

#15 Kansas is 6-0 and they have been flying under the radar while steadily moving up in the rankings. This week they travel to Colorado.

#17 Hawaii is 7-0 and, yeah, they are even further west than Arizona State, but with their much weaker schedule do they really count? With the number of points they’ve been putting on the board…okay, they count. They take a week off from their frequent flier program and so will remain undefeated for at least one more week.

Still alot of season left but seems that USF is playing good ball. They have a good coach and I think they have the talent to go undefeated...and it does tickle a funny bone to see them rated ahead of the Gators and FSU
