Top 25 Voters Tomorrow

Its evening here and I have broken out a ice crusted beer bottle to make my predictions on what the AP top 25 voters will do tomorrow. To get who we all care about Kentucky won’t crack the top 25 and Tennessee wil stay in the top 25. The three reasons Tennessee does are because they lost to a PAC 10 team, they play in the SEC, they are named Tennessee and their coach is named Fulmar. Thats four but Tennessee is use help with grades.
There won’t be much change at the top this week. Clemson doesn’t drop out of the top 29 because untill someone in the ACC proves different they are still the best in the league. Miami might prove that next saturday when they play Florica. Wake Forest moves up a couple of spots.
Alabama moves to 12 and Auburn moves into the top 10,
Pittsburg and Illinois drop out of the top 25. BCS buster candidates Fresno St crack’s the top 25 after a convincing win over Rutgers. The last spot goes to Uiah for winning at the stadium formerly known as the big house and now known as louserville2.
