I want a vote

That's it - I want a vote in the AP poll. USC legitimately looked good this weekend (good for them taking over #1) however, Florida crushed a more worthy opponent by more points than either Georgia or OSU in their even bigger cupcake games. So, if we are going to start shuffling the cards, UF needs to at least hurdle Ohio State because honestly, OSU should have crushed YSU and they didn't.

Granted there is still plenty of time for this to work itself out, but this is perfectly set up so that the winner of the OSU vs USC game will be in prime solid contention to play in the National Championship against which ever SEC team shakes to the top. Kind of makes the rest of the top 25 seem useless if this scenerio unfolds.

USC leaps over Georgia, Ohio State into No. 1 spot

NEW YORK -- By staying away from the cupcakes, Southern California earned itself a slim new ranking.

No. 1 always seems to fit USC.

Southern California jumped two spots to No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25 on Tuesday, rewarded by voters for opening the season with a dominant performance on the road against a BCS conference opponent.

Georgia and Ohio State, the preseason Nos. 1 and 2, respectively, started their seasons with glorified scrimmages at home against FCS (formerly I-AA) teams. USC, however, traveled across country to face Virginia and could not have been more impressive in a 52-7 victory.

Georgia fell to No. 2 and Ohio State to No. 3.
