I think Texas lost because, although an extremely disciplined team, they are not an emotional team. Emotions can go either way, but in this case, we watched a team that was all fired up, in their own house, that was determined to run #1 the **** over.

TT also finally had an opponent that they could show what having the most disciplined offensive and defensive lines in college football can do for you. I never would have believed that a rotating 4 or 3 man front could put that much pressure on a QB as mobile as McCoy. It was all discipline and straight lines.

The biggest shocker of the week to me is that Utah isn't in the top 5. They beat the Sooners up pretty bad, yet they are ranked behind them? How the AP can leave a 9-0 team that far back in the polls when they have beaten some good teams I don't understand. Not saying that one loss should automatically drop a team behind all of the undefeated teams, but a one loss team shoudl at least be behind the team that beat them.

I think PSU is getting screwed a little in the polls too. I think they are a better team than Alabama and now Texas Tech has jumped past them.
