2011 BlogPoll Top 25 Ballot – Week 14

As many of you know, I am one of the voters in the BlogPoll Top 25. Each week, bloggers across the country representing the various FBS schools get together and put together their own top 25’s. Here at SOX & Dawgs, we are representing the UConn Huskies. The votes are then tabulated on Tuesday.

Each week we are asked to do an initial ballot. This allows you the reader to let us know in the comments whether you agree with my choices or not. The initial ballots will normally be done on Sunday.

After I check the comments for the initial ballot, I then resubmit my final ballot for the week. If there are comments, I’ll take them into consideration before submitting the final ballot by 8 a.m.on Tuesday.

Bloguin Heisman Trophy Poll – Week 12

Bloguin Heisman TrophyEach week a group of Bloguin college football bloggers get together and put our votes in for the top Heisman Trophy candidates. Then after the votes are tabulated by Kevin over at College Football Zealots, the poll is released on Wednesday.

Here are the results for week 12 of the 2011 college football season. Be sure to head over Crystal Ball Run for a full look at the results for the week for more insight on the poll.

  1. Robert Griffin III (QB-Baylor)- 29 Points, 32.22%, 8 1st Place Votes
  2. Andrew Luck (QB-Stanford) – 18 Points, 20.00%, 4 1st Place Votes
  3. Trent Richardson (RB-Alabama) – 15 Points, 16.67%, 1 1st Place Vote
  4. Case Keenum (QB-Houston)- 12.5 Points, 13.89%, 0 1st Place Votes
  5. Montee Ball (RB-Wisconsin) – 7.5 Points, 8.33%, 1 1st Place Vote
  • Also Receiving Votes: Matt Barkley (QB- USC) 4 pts, Colin Klein (QB- Kansas State) 3 pts, Kellen Moore (QB- Boise State) 1 pt
  • Dropped Out: Brandon Weeden (QB- Oklahoma State), Justin Blackmon (WR- Oklahoma State), David Wilson (RB- Virginia Tech)

In case you were wondering, here’s how I voted this week:

1. Robert Griffin III, QB – Baylor: In continuing my what have you done for me lately theme, RGIII vaults from nowheresville USA in my ballot to the top after a stellar performance in an upset win over Oklahoma. RGIII was 21-of-34 for 479 yards and four touchdown passes. He also ran for 72 yards on 18 carries. With all of the upsets going on in college football right now, there is no clear cut favorite which might allow RG III or even another player to steal the Heisman away from everybody’s preseason and most of the season favorite Andrew Luck.

2. Case Keenum, QB – Houston: While Keenum didn’t break the bank in the win over SMU, he’s considered here because of his overall body of work this season. In the win over SMU, he only threw for 318 yards and one touchdown pass. The 318 yards were his second lowest of the season as was the one touchdown pass. But on the season, he’s thrown for 4,269 yards and 38 touchdowns with just three interceptions.

3. Kellen Moore, QB – Boise State: After his team suffered a tough loss their last time out, last weekend Moore made sure his Broncos weren’t going to be on the losing end again. He threw for 366 yards and four touchdown passes. He did have one interception though. His 35 touchdown passes this season match what he did last season when he was a Heisman finalist.

2011 NCAA Football Rankings – Week 13 (Nov. 20)

AP & USA Today Coaches' Polls

The NCAA college football rankings are out for week 13 and after a crazy weekend of upsets, there’s only one constant in the top five teams of both polls from last week. And that is the fact the LSU Tigers are ranked No. 1.

LSU is followed by Alabama, Arkansas, Stanford and Oklahoma State in the AP Poll. In the USA Today Coaches’ Poll, they are followed by Alabama, Arkansas, Virginia Tech and Stanford.

There are no Big East teams ranked in the top 25 of the AP Poll. In the coaches’ poll, the West Virginia Mountaineers stay at No. 23 after being on a bye this past weekend. They are top team in the others receiving votes in the AP Poll.

The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are the only team from the Big East among the others receiving votes in both polls. The Cincinnati Bearcats are also among the others receiving votes in the AP Poll.

It’ll be interesting to see how the BCS Standings look when they come out later on Sunday night.

Bloguin Heisman Trophy Poll – Week 11

Bloguin Heisman TrophyEach week a group of Bloguin college football bloggers get together and put our votes in for the top Heisman Trophy candidates. Then after the votes are tabulated by Kevin over at College Football Zealots, the poll is released on Wednesday.

Here are the results for week eight of the 2011 college football season. Be sure to head over Crystal Ball Run for a full look at the results for the week for more insight on the poll.

  1. Andrew Luck (QB-Stanford) – 22 Points, 25.88%, 4 1st Place Votes
  2. Brandon Weeden (QB-Oklahoma State)- 20 Points, 23.53%, 5 1st Place Votes
  3. Trent Richardson (RB-Alabama) – 16 Points, 18.82%, 1 1st Place Vote
  4. Case Keenum (QB-Houston)- 11 Points, 12.94%, 2 1st Place Votes
  • Also Receiving Votes: Robert Griffin III (QB- Baylor) 5 pts, Justin Blackmon (WR- Oklahoma State) 3 pts, Colin Klein (QB- Kansas State) 3 pts, Montee Ball (RB- Wisconsin) 2 pts, Kellen Moore (QB- Boise State) 1 pt, Matt Barkley (QB- USC) 1 pt, David Wilson (RB- Virginia Tech) 1 pt
  • Dropped Out: Ryan Broyles (WR- Oklahoma)

In case you were wondering, this is how I voted:

1. Brandon Weeden, QB,  Oklahoma State – In a what have you done for me lately world, Weedon has simply been getting the job done. He has Okie State team at 10-0 after another impressive performance. In his team’s 66-10 win over Texas Tech, he completed 31-of-37 passes for 423 yards and five touchdowns. Solid performances in his final two games against Iowa State and Oklahoma could give the Heisman voters someone else to think about.

2. Andrew Luck, QB, Stanford – Luck drops in my poll (just because I didn’t vote the past two weeks doesn’t mean I wasn’t paying attention) partly because Stanford lost and partly because he wasn’t all that great against the Oregon Ducks. Sure he threw for 271 yards and three touchdowns. But he also threw two interceptions that resulted in 15 points for the Ducks.

3. Case Keenum, QB, Houston – Keenum seems to be in the Heisman race every year. He was there early on last year before an injury derailed his season. But in his sixth year with the Cougars, he’s putting up stellar numbers again. He put up three of his 37 touchdown passes in their 73-17 win over Tulane. He’s also took good care of the ball throwing just three interceptions all season. Despite his numbers, you have to wonder how serious voters will take him because of the schedule the Cougars play in Conference USA
