Alright, I'm shifting to Oregon for the first time.

But if TCU has a convincing win against Utah, they'll be #1 after Week 10.

I still like Auburn but the Oregon offense can be a real thing of beauty.

You cant be serious. You mean to tell me that if TCU beats Utah then suddenly that makes them better than an Oregon team that dominated USC? I don't buy it.

I'm not convinced USC is a good team. I haven't been convinced of that all year. USC played Oregon better than the Trojans have played a lot of people, but that tends to happen when you have a top tier team come to your house.

Utah is a Top 10 team. Besides Alabama / Auburn, it's the only Top 10 matchup remaining this season. A convincing win against a Top 10 team will say a lot about TCU. Note that I said convincing.

I don't buy TCU because I don't think Dalton is a very good QB. I've watched a couple of their games and he has been less then impressive to say the least. Based on that, I would think a solid defense would stifle the TCU rushing and air attack big time, throw in their schedule and I just don't think they are worthy of the #1 spot.

1. Oregon (--)
2. Boise State (--)
3. Auburn (--)
4. TCU (6)
5. Utah (7)
