Top 25

After a blazing first week of college football, here is the new top 25 as I see it.

1. USC - #1 until someone proves otherwise
2. Michigan - Slow start, solid finish
3. Texas - Vince Young is the early Heisman favorite
4. Virginia Tech - With big brother on the sidelines, Marcus Vick showed he was worth the wait
5. Ohio State - Defense was strong as expected, offensive showing was impressive
6. Florida - Third year starter Chris Leak seemed comfortable with Urban Meyer's new offense
7. Tennessee - QB situation must be figured out before week 3 showdown with the Gators
8. LSU
9. Florida State - Kicking game finally worked in their favor
10. Louisville - Scary first game, Cards still have as good a chance as any team in the country to go undefeated
11. Miami - Young QB showed promised, running game void hurt by ejection
12. Iowa - Impressive win not as impressive when considering the opponent
13. Georgia - DJ Shockley fills a big void with pure athleticism
14. Oklahoma - Adrian Peterson is still as good a talent as there is in the country, QB and WR positions leave something to be desired though
15. California - Offense didn't skip a beat
16. Boston College - Blackmon and Kiwi lead a strong BC team
17. Purdue
18. Arizona State - Movin' on up
19. Auburn - Dropoff expected given offseason losses
20. Texas Tech
21. Virginia - Must protect the football
22. Fresno State
23. Boise State - Have last three years of hard work gone down the drain?
24. Texas A & M - Not going for two will be questioned all season
25. Notre Dame* - Charlie Weis debut brings hope to fans in South Bend
