SB Nation BlogPoll College Football Top 25 Rankings »
I felt like Andy Rooney when I was filling out my ballot. If I'm right about the top ten teams in the country, then this is the total list of top ten match-ups that are going to occur for the rest of the season:
Alabama-Florida
Texas-Oklahoma
Nebraska-Texas
Stanford-Oregon
Yes, Boise State and TCU don't play murderer's rows, but it's not like the other contenders are getting challenges on a regular basis. (Exception for Alabama, which plays five of the top 20.) Part of what is working for the Broncos and Horned Frogs this year is that they are going to point to the slates played by non-SEC and Pac Ten contenders and they're going to say "we're not that far removed from your schedules."
