It’s BlogPoll time again. We’re three weeks into the season and definitely starting to get a better idea of which teams may truly have a shot at the national title. It’s still early, but we’ve already seen some stumbles. Feel free to disagree with whatever I have here. That’s why it’s posted.

Most of this looks good. It's a bit inconsistent to drop USC below VT. They have a common head-to-head opponent that VT barely beat, but USC beat handily. I think TCU is a bit high too. This is not the same defensive-minded team we've seen the last few years. They allowed 50 to Baylor.
