Hope Penn State can win out.

[TheValleyRaider]

If Utah and TCU can win out until the Frogs visit Salt Lake City, I think things will work themselves out in the end :D

[catamount man]

TCU at Utah on November 6 is gonna be a GOOD ONE!!! xthumbsupx

GO CATAMOUNTS!!!

[TheValleyRaider]

Frogs have Wyoming at home, then at UNLV before visiting the Utes, so I feel confident they'll be at 9-1. Utah is at New Mexico the week before, which is tricky, but they should be 9-0 as well

It's nice to have Wyoming at home after BYU because you know there will be a letdown

[furman94]

Wake gets no votes because they were shut out by MARYLAND!

[gbhmt]

So do you think OSU gets the top spot with a win over Texas next week?

So do you think OSU gets the top spot with a win over Texas next week?

No, because Penn State will be #1 with it's solid win over Ohio State at the 'Horseshoe';)
