While the BCS Championship was not the shootout some predicted, Auburn’s 22-19 win over Oregon makes it five in a row for the SEC.

Things held together at the top last week, setting the stage for a Auburn vs. Oregon national championship matchup. We move Aubie to the top spot as they left no doubt against South Carolina.

In a wild week that saw four of the top 11 go down, the BCS picture clears.

In a week void of any top 15 matchups, Week 11 was anything but boring as near misses against the BCS top 3 were brewing.

Week 10 proved to be a wild week as nine of the Top 25 teams took it on the chin. That loud, hissing sound you hear is the air being let out of the ‘National Championship balloon’ in Tuscalossa.

With the Missouri and Michigan State losses, the bottom half of this week’s top 10 is scrambled.

With the 24-17 Auburn win over LSU Saturday, War Eagle ascends to the No.2 spot on our Week 9 ballot. Another performance like that (303 total yards), and they’ll have to change CBS to the “Cam Brodcasting System”.

A week after BlogPoll voters anointed Oregon #1, the AP and Coaches Poll followed suit this week after Ohio State got ambushed 31-18 by Wisconsin.
