First BCS poll of the year

Well,
The first BCS poll is out and as a fan this does not appear to be as controversial as some in the past. I would have to agree wit the top 10; especially Ohio Sate, South Florida, Boston, LSU and Oklahoma taking the first five spots. What do you all think?
How about Georgia ranked ahead of Tennessee? Michigan ranked?

Thoughts on poll

It's pretty cool to see BC up that high - hope it lasts but they still have a slew of tough games left (Virginia Tech, Clemson and Miami).

I have a feeling Ohio State runs the table and gets to the National Championship and then there will be a bunch of teams with one loss and a huge argument on who is supposed to play in the final.

As for UGA above Tennessee, I don't get it, but I like it.

Mike,
Ohio State certainly has a good chance, BC has to play at VT and South Florida is at Rutgers this week, Thursday I believe. There is a good chance these two can lose!
As computer rankings go, LSU, Florida and USC still have a good chance because in the end the coaches Harris poll will come into effect.
Could be another controversial ending!

UGA ranked higher than TN?

Georgia gets a bye every year for 2-3 games.
They get a bowl with a 6-6 record.
A good bowl with a 7-5 record.
It is ticket sales to rednecks! Get it?

Under Mark Richt (the last six years), the Bulldogs have had only two seasons with over three losses.
