Walker Sports College Football Poll: End of the Regular Season


1)Texas Longhorns: Texas stuck around long enough to outlast Florida and earn the number one spot in the poll. However, The Long horns looked shakier than ever when they took on Nebraska in the Big 12 Championship. You can rest assured that Alabama will study lots of that film.

2)Boise State Broncos: The Broncos are better than what people are giving them credit for. They deserved a better fate than playing TCU in the Fiesta Bowl.

3)Alabama Crimson Tide: While they only rank third in the Walker Sports poll, the Crimson Tide did enough in the other polls to earn a spot in the national championship game. Can't say I disagree with that.

4)TCU Horn Frogs: There is talk that the Horn Frogs may be the best team in the the state of Texas, and arguably the best in the country. The BCS screwed them over by pairing them with Boise State.

5)Cincinnati Bearcats: UC is a fun team, and they put on one hell of a show Saturday against the Panthers. They have a lot of work to do on defense if they want to slow down the Gators in the Sugar Bowl.

6)Oregon Ducks: I love my Ducks. Ohio State will have their hands full with this team in the Rose Bowl. The Oregon Ducks have a dangerous rushing attack, it will be key for them to win the turnover battle.

7)Ohio State Buckeyes: Speaking of Rose Bowl, the Bucks have been off for two weeks and they have another four before they take the field, crazy.

8)Florida Gators: That was not your typical Urban Myer team you saw on Saturday. The Gators have been on the brink all season, and Saturday it finally caught up with them.

9)Penn State: An average season season is rewarded with a trip to the Capital One Bowl.

10)Iowa Hawkeyes: Seriously, how does this team make their way to a BCS game? This has to be a joke.

11)BYU Cougars: BYU is a better team than most people gave them credit for, shame no one watched them play since the Oklahoma game.

12)Virginia Tech Hokies: Yes I know it's strange the Hokies didn't even win the ACC but they are the highest ranked team in the conference. That should tell you plenty about the ACC.

13)Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets: It's just fun to be able to watch the option in action again. The Yellow Jackets can give Iowa fits in the Orange Bowl.

14)LSU Tigers: It should be fun to watch the Tigers take on Penn State in the Capital One Bowl, that's a match up you would not normally see.

15)Utah Utes: It's amazing this team crawled their way back into the standings.

16)West Virginia Moutaineers: WVU has the honor of ending legendary Bobby Bowden's career. And you can believe the Moutaineers will knock off Florida State.

17)Oregon State Beavers: What a game on Thursday night, but in the end the defense let them down.

18)Pittsburgh Panthers: Great game on Saturday, and Davis is one special back. I'd love to watch him one more time.

20)Clemson Tigers: C.J. Spiller is the best player in the country, give him the damn Heisman.

21)Stanford Cardinals: The biggest issue for the Cardinals is making sure they keep a hold of their coach.

22)Oklahoma State Cowboys: Another team that has not played well this season, but somehow they have remained ranked.

23)Nebraska Cornhuskers: Nebraska is a good team and they are one bad call from reaching a BCS game.

24)Wisconsin Badgers: The Badgers are a pretty good team. This is what I expect from a Wisconsin team, quiet but talented.

25)Central Michigan: You probably have never seen this team before, they are good. Their quarterback Dan LaFevour is a flat out stud.
