    This makes back to back weeks where there have been some serious upsets among top teams.

    What a difference a year makes in the SEC. Auburn and Mizzou, after being doormats in the conference last year, are both pretty doggone good this time around.

    This year the Colts have the 4th best rush defense, are 3rd in takeaways, and 11th in pass defense, nevermind their amazing special teams.. Its not just Andrew Luck, the Colts have a solid team... but Luck gets all the credit, remmeber the 49ers game this year, the Colts defense held the 49ers in check the whole game, Luck scores his ONLY td with 4 minutes to go in the game when the Colts were already ahead by 17 points, and all of a sudden Luck leads the Colts to a win, the 49ers only put up 7 points ?????????

    The A&M D is one of the worst I've ever seen. It's beyond pathetic.

    I don't think so. I think the Colts D has gotten a lot of credit, especially in the games against SF and Seattle. People are giving Luck credit for playing well against two pretty good defenses, but I have seen credit given to the Colts defense too. I don't really see why you're trying to play the double standard card. This was about Geno Smith and how he isn't the main reason why the Jets are 3-3. I wasn't debating anything else. You're changing the argument entirely.

    Luck is overhyped bro, im going through his stats this season, and i cant find one game where he wowed and put up big numbers( like the media would have you believe). If the Colts defense and special teams plays well the Colts win( its that simple), all Luck has to do is not turn the ball over

    Boyd gives away a fumble and FSU runs it in for 6.

    Baylor can potentially move up to #5 with a LSU loss.

    I'd expect 7-8. Clemson will likely be ahead of us still.

    Ole Miss is crumbling and LSU has plenty of time to close them out. Landry and Beckham are impossible to stop and LSU's running game is now pulverizing Ole Miss.

    Still can't believe it. Auburn is back. Malzahn is the man.

    I haven't been impressed by Tajh Boyd. He looks kind of fat actually, and hasn't completed a high % of passes so far.

    Jameis has a much better arm, but has made a lot of rookie mistakes

    the one interception by jamies was the wr's fault, he's an Andrew Luck type of prospect, hell go number 1 overall in 2015
