Last week, I was unhappy with my prior ballot, so I threw it out and started fresh. This week, there are still many major fluctuations, and that is due in part to the number of upsets that occurred this weekend, and my ever changing mind.
I forgot Ohio State in the poll last week, (oops) so that's why they have a delta of 22. Really, that's more like three or four.

Some quick notes on my Top 10:
USC - They barely beat Washington State, Stanford is next. Uh-oh.
Cal - Snuck out with win over Oregon, good chance against Trojans in a few weeks.
Ohio State - Haven't had a tough win yet
Boston College - Survived a scare against Massachusetts, Army this week.
South Florida - USF cracks my Top 10 with a huge upset of West Virginia.
Kentucky - UK QB Andre Woodson threw 5 touchdowns, but ended his interception streak at 325 completions.
Wisconsin - They haven't lost in 14 games
Cincinnati - The Bearcats continue to roll. Ben Mauk threw 4 TD's.... in the second quarter... The Bearacts will get some decent competition this week as they travel to New Jersey to play Rutgers, a team fresh off a loss to Maryland.
Florida - In the first home loss for Urban Meyer, the Gators went down on a last second 43 yard field goal by Auburn's Wes Bynum.
GO BEAVERS! May they one day crack this poll again.
