BlogPoll: Week Nine's Pile of Teams

Right off the bat, I'll answer your "Why the hell did 'Bama drop three spots without losing?" question. The Tide have been about as uninspiring as Mac's mom from Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

I'm calling a bold prediction: Alabama loses to the Vols this week in Knoxville. Plus, I didn't drop Missouri too much because anyone would have gotten waxed in Austin last week. Now that I have that off my chest, here's a bunch of good teams in numerical order.
