It is college football at its finest.  For three weeks in a row, the Top 10 has been flip flopped again.  # 1 Oklahoma losing to # 5 Texas.  # 3 Missouri losing at home to # 17 Oklahoma State.  # 4 LSU losing to # 11 Florida in the Swamp.  If you didn't know by now, the last three weeks should have taught you that anything can happen in college football.  The question right now is, who moves into the top 5 spots?  Let's take a look.


# 1.  Alabama - Probably the luckiest of the Top 5 teams, Alabama was idle on Saturday and watched as #'s 1, 3, and 4 lost.  Although Texas beat Oklahoma 45-35, they were 170 points behind Alabama for # 2 in the AP Poll, 150 points behind them in the Coaches Poll, and 40 points behind them in the Harris Poll (The last two polls are factored in for the BCS Standings).  The difference between the two puts Alabama in the # 1 spot for the time being, but only slightly.

# 2.  Texas - With an exceptional win against # 1 Oklahoma, the Longhorns move up to # 2 in the nation.  Colt McCoy had a magnificent game and brought Texas back multiple times to finally overtake the Sooners in the fourth quarter and hold on for the win.  Next up, it doesn't get any easier.  The Longhorns have to take on a vicious Missouri team who is coming off a loss to Oklahoma State and is looking for vengeance.


# 3.  Penn State - One of the most dominating wins from the weekend was by the Nittany Lions.  Joe Pa's boys went into Camp Randall Stadium and proceeded to blow Wisconsin out of the water on their home field 41-7.  They await Ohio State in two weeks in a matchup that will virtually decide the Big Ten Championship.


# 4.  USC - The first one-loss team to sneak back into the title picture is USC.  They blanked Arizona State this weekend 28-0 and, with help from a Texas Tech team who very nearly coughed up a win at home against Nebraska, jump up to the # 4 spot this week.  If all goes well and USC can walk through what is left of the Pac 10, which is very possible thanks to a fairly favorable schedule and the unfavorable schedules of the teams in front of them, they very well could be in the National Championship game at the end of all this.


# 5.  Texas Tech - Although they almost lost at home to Bo Pelini's Cornhuskers on Saturday, Texas Tech's defense stood up when it counted, and their offense was dominant as usual putting up 37 points in a 37-31 win in overtime.  However, the Red Raiders start a streak of four games against Top 25 teams in just two weeks against Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma State, and Oklahoma.  Rough road for the Raiders.

There you have it.  My Top 5 for week 7.  Feel free to leave any comments and give your arguements as to why your team should be ranked higher or another team should be ranked lower.
