Time for another look around the nation, a very short and sweet one this week. Including our game against Texas State, a grand total of three games were played in week one across the nation. In the only top 25 game, #11 Auburn beat Kentucky 24-7. In the game of the week, North Carolina knocked off Louisville 45-26, and we pulled a 23-17 win out of our ass over Texas State.

Taking a look at the new Top 25 Coaches Poll, with only three games, no movement at all. Alabama (34 first place votes) remains #1, Texas (22 votes) #2, Clemson (2 votes) #3, LSU (1 vote) #4 and Nebraska (1 vote) #5. Notre Dame (1 vote) is #6, Washington #7, Georgia #8, Oklahoma #9 and TCU #10. Auburn (despite playing and winning in week one) remains #11, Michigan #12, Texas A&M #13, Iowa #14 and Michigan State #15. Virginia Tech is #16, USC #17, Houston #18, Oregon #19 and Wisconsin #20. The rest, Ohio State is #21, Miami (FL) #22, Georgia Tech #23, Wake Forest #24 and NC State #25. Nobody dropped out. Looking at Others Receiving Votes, South Carolina (160 votes) is #26, Tulsa (127 votes) is #27, followed by Fresno State (96), Northwestern (67) and Kansas State (39) to round out the Top 30.

Despite being a beast in one of only three games in week one, Price couldn't use the 200+ yard rushing day to propel him into an early Heisman candidate. Senior HB Matt Blount from Georgia is on top, looking for his second straight Heisman. Others on the list include Texas A&M QB David Williams (Senior (RS), Nebraska HB Riley Thompson (Senior), Notre Dame HB Joey Owens (Senior) and Wyoming(!) QB Jon Davis (Senior).
