1) Boise - dumptrucked a team that gave Louisville fits last week. Very good team that will be a National Title contender next year.

2) Cincinnati - taking care of business. Butch Jones has done a great job with a program that had some issues when Kelly left. Still don't trust Jones in tight games though.

3) Rutgers - one of the best defensive teams in the country.

4) Louisville - may be the most talented team in this year's Big East, but they will lose at least one game they have no business losing. They are playing with fire week after week.

5) Central Florida - looked good against an overmatched ECU team. Will probably not lose another game.

6) Temple - great win. A young team that makes a ton of mistakes, but I love watching Temple. Great energy, creative coaching, lots of hitting.

7) SDSU - winning some of the games they are supposed to win, but they did lose to San Jose State.

8) Houston - at least they are beating the bad teams.

9) USF - Skip has lost control of this team.

10) UConn - hard to find a silver lining. I am not entirely sure UConn would beat either Navy or SMU either.

11) Navy - nice win over Air Force, but they look badly outmatched against any BCS team.

12) SMU - dominated a UTEP team that hung with Wisconsin and Oklahoma. Surprised that a June Jones team is so weak offensively. SMU's defense will be enough to carry it to a winning record in a terrible CUSA.

13) Memphis - still sucks, but at least they beat Rice.

Louisville

And a bunch of unimpressive teams.

Pretty good ranking. The top 5 teams are pretty good. From there you can toss a lot of teams in a hat. I hope UConn can move up that list in the remaining games -- above Temple anyway.

Is there anyway to compute the Sagarin rating and how we compare?

UCF has blown some opportunities this year, and won't really get another shot to prove itself until its bowl game. CUSA is horrendously bad this year, easily the worst conference in FBS. Sweeping through that league is not going to help its rankings very much.

SDSU, UConn, Temple and USF have also blown some opportunities to pick up quality wins. The NNBE doesn't need moral victories, it needs victories.

God, I hate reading that.

Even worse, you're right. Just depressing.
