Here is a recap of Jimson's Top 10 Standings After Week 1 of the 2008 College Football season:
1. Florida Gators 1-0
2. Georgia Bulldogs 1-0
3. Kansas Jayhawks 1-0
4. Ohio State Buckeyes 1-0
5. USC Trojans 1-0
6. West Virginia Mountaineers 1-0
7. Oklahoma Sooners 1-0
8. Missouri Tigers 1-0
9. Texas Longhorns 1-0
10. Clemson Tigers 1-0
Now, it's time to move on to Week 2 of the 2008 College Football season.
Key Games in Week 2:
BYU (1-0) @ Washington (0-1)
With the nation's longest winning streak, the Boise State Broncos walked into Husky Stadium to face the Washington Huskies during week two of last year's college football season.
Unfortunately, the Boise State Broncos learned just how tough it is to play in Husky Stadium as the Washington Huskies defeated the Boise State Broncos 24-10 to end Boise State's 14-game winning streak.
This season the BYU Cougars will walk into Husky Stadium with the nation's longest winning streak to face the Washington Huskies during week two of the college football season.
I sense the scary feeling of deja vu! Look for Ty Willingham and the Washington Huskies to rebound from their week one road loss to Oregon and hold serve at home for a quality win over the Cougars.
Sorry BYU fans, but a run at a perfect season will have to wait until the 2009.
Winner: Washington
Louisiana Tech (1-0) @ Kansas (1-0)
After holding serve at home for a big win over Mississippi State in the battle of Bulldogs, coach Derek Dooley and his upstart Louisiana Tech Bulldogs look to build on their momentum coming into week two as they travel to Rock Chalk Jayhawk land to take on the #3 Kansas Jayhawks.
On September 8th of last season, Hawaii needed overtime to defeat Derek Dooley’s Bulldogs in week two. In the first overtime, Dooley decided to go for two, figuring it would be next to impossible to keep Colt Brennan from scoring again. This was a decision reminiscent of Boise State’s in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl. Unfortunately, the pass for conversion was deflected and the Warriors escaped with a 45-44 win.
There will be no need for overtime in this one as Todd Reesing pulls off a prime time, Heisman-like performance against the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs. The Kansas Jayhawks will crush Louisiana Tech by about nine touchdowns and show why they are the #3 team in the nation.
Winner: Kansas
Weber State (1-0) @ Hawaii (0-1)
The Hawaii Rainbow Warriors will be coming into this game fresh off a ten touchdown drubbing at the hands of the Florida Gators, while Weber State comes off nine days of rest and a nice win over Montana Western.
Last season the Rainbow Warriors, with Heisman finalist Colt Brennan, needed overtime to win over Louisiana Tech in week two. Now that Hawaii is without Brennan, I am wondering if Hawaii can even get to overtime in this season's week two. In addition, Hawaii lost their top three wide receivers and best offensive lineman.
Either way, I see Weber State using the nine days of rest to their advantage, making it factor into the outcome of this game, as Weber State will beat Hawaii.
The post-Colt Brennan era has gotten off to a very bad start as the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors fall to 0-2 on the 2008 season. Weber State will improve to 2-0, as things could get very ugly in a hurry for Hawaii!
Winner: Weber State

But I still think that it is basically a FORGONE CONCLUSION... that Florida is going to win this game :)

You know, maybe if we ignore these, they'll just go away. I've been guilty of commenting on them way too much (it's easy, because they just really get under your skin with how annoying they are).
But if we stop commenting on them, maybe they'll go away. This is my last comment on one of Jimson's articles.

Even if you guys STOP commenting on MY articles... They will NOT go away. In, I will CONTINUE MY SERIES... and write a NEW article, EVERY THREE DAYS :)

More crap from Jimson. Pure bias and no objectivity.
Also, I am going to post this on every article you write. You already copied your articles from mine, I thought of this concept and have already started it. Plus I'm actually objective unlike you.
Next time, think of your own stuff or give credit to the person who you copied their idea from. : )
Go to my profile and you can find the first three weeks of my preview that Jimson so nicely copied.

I am trying to be as objective as I can... This is NOT pure bias :)

Okay, I'll give credit to you... for this idea :)
"Go to my profile and you can find the first three weeks of my preview that Jimson so nicely copied."
I originally did NOT plan to create my own series... but YOUR series was SO DISGUSTING, that I basically had to COME IN AND SAVE THE DAY :)

"WEBER ST. OVER HAWAII?

What are you talking about???
The Hawaii Rainbow Warriors will be coming into this game BEATEN DOWN, after getting CRUSHED BEYOND RECOGNITION by Florida Gators :)
On the other hand, Weber State will have NINE FULL days off... after they play Montana Western, on Thursday, August 28th :)
"NUMBER TWO - HOWS THAT A BIG GAME...D1-AA TEAM VS. A NON-FACTOR WAC TEAM"
In my opinion, I believe that this is a BIG GAME :)
In fact, I play to stay up VERY LATE THAT NIGHT... because September 7th is my friend Krista's 17th birthday :)
Heck, after I wish her happy birthday at 12 midnight (I live in the Eastern Time Zone - New Jersey)... I'll just turn on the TV, and be JUST IN TIME for the 12:05 AM kickoff time to the Weber State @ Hawaii game :)
Heck, I'll just stay up to WATCH THE ENTIRE GAME, which will probably end around 3 AM... if there is NO OVERTIME :)

You could have chosen Cinci and Oklahoma... if there are any upsets capable of happening that's the game and they are two better caliber teams than Kansas vs. La. Tech... Georgia Tech vs. Boston College... you did pick one.. Washington and BYU will be fun to watch.

Adam, I would have chosen Cincinnati and Oklahoma... IF Ben Mauk had gotten his 6th year of eligibility. Unfortunately, Mauk did NOT get his rightful 6th year of eligibility :)

You picked La Tech to lose by 9 TDs to Kansas. Ole Miss and Wake Forest will be closer than that. I'd like to see a Wake Forest-Kansas Orange Bowl game, that would be interesting. It would be Wake's 2nd Orange Bowl in 3 years and Kansas' 2nd in a row. Maybe it will happen, you never know.

YES, I know that Ole Miss @ Wake Forest will be closer than that... But who really cares about Ole Miss football??? Didn't Ole Miss go WINLESS, in conference play... during the 2007 College Football season???

You have wrong, BYU over Washington for the win. This is the quality win on the road that the Cougars MUST have this year. They will air it out deep and win the line surge on both offense and defense. If the cougars have the winning hand they will play the aces, if they don't, the bluff is over.
Believe me, they have a handful of aces, it ain't no bluff.
A win over UCLA will be worthwhile, but it will be in Provo. Put your Ute ball cap back in the basement and don't take it out till Meyers returns to Salt Lake City.

This is a very good point... but I still see Washington defeating BYU, lolz :)

I really can't wait to write Part 13 of MY College Football series... It will feature the game of the week:
#11 BYU Cougars (10-1) @ #4 Utah Utes (11-0)
