CBSSports.com BlogPoll Ballot — Week 7

October 15, 2008 by Walking on Sunshine 

After a bloody week for top 5 teams, Alabama takes the top spot over Texas, even after their impressive 45-35 win over Oklahoma.  ‘Bama’s lineman (on both sides of the ball) give the Tide the slight edge over Colt McCoy and the Longhorns.  Oklahoma State and Florida jump up accordingly after big wins.
