Texas #7 in new AP Poll

Here are the new rankings and Texas moves up one spot from last week. OU is the new number two and USC is still number one. If things stand as they are, our schedule looks brutal. It looks like we are going to play three teams in the top 10 and two in the top 5 (Tech should move up as they keep winning). It also looks we could play three teams that will be undefeated coming into our game, OU, Tech and Missouri. Our schedule looks brutal on paper and it looks even tougher at the matchups. How are we going to stop OU and Missouri? They are making putting up 50 look easy.

As far as the rest of the rankings go I agree with them for the most part. I don't understand as to how Auburn is in the top 10. They looked absolutely terrible against Mississippi St. They scored the same amount of points as Ohio St. and yet they are in the top 10. A top 10 team doesn't only score 3 points. Is it just me, or does every Auburn seem to be 10-3, 7-3, etc. slug fest?

Also, I don't believe Wisconsin should be in the top 10 as well. They really should have lost to Fresno St. but they kept beating themselves. They really didn't seem that impressive. I know it is tough to beat Fresno St., but their offense looked really mediocre.
