Looking at this all I can say is the poll is favorable to Washington.
Since I am a Husky fan, I see that they play LSU, Michigan, Navy,
ASU, UCLA, Arizona and USC.  Now if they do well against such competition
they should be up there.
Well, there we see 'Bama still in the top 20, I guess they think Perkins
will do well.  Notre Dame seems to be back in there after a few bad years.
So much for PSU being #1, Neraska deserves it as we will see later on this
week.  Whats Pitt doing at #15??  Georgia is still in there!!! 
Overall I guess the polls are satisfactory.  Note Tennessee only getting a
few votes in the AP and thats it.  So much for Sport Magazines' prediction.

Does someone on the net have access to the bottom 20 polls? Coming from
a strong contender for that end of the spectrum (Rice U.), I'd like
to see the name of my alma mater once in awhile.
