Campus Report Week 4

So much of week 4 was circled around Jameis Winston being suspended for #1 Florida St.'s game against Clemson on Saturday night. Actually the entire narrative leading up to it was how would the voters react to the Seminole's loss knowing their best player didn't play. How would FSU rebound after defeat and play the rest of the season and could they still compete for a national championship. As if it was forgone conclusion the defending national champions #1 team in the nation who was playing at home on the back of a 18 game winning streak & a roster loaded with NFL prospects had no chance against an annually overhyped, overrated Clemson team who time after time on national T.V against a top opponent in a big game underperforms. What happened ? While not pretty the winning streak reached 19 games... So now with their QB & best player reinstated can we all agree FSU is the best team in the nation until someone beats them ?? Elsewhere Auburn, Georgia, & Alabama ( who may have finally found their QB ) all reasserted their dominance in the country's best conference ( the SEC ). Wisconsin's huge rushing performance of 644yds in a 68-17 proved to be maybe the most impressive statistical performance of the week. Here is your updated top 25 :

1.Florida St. - Looks to be smooth sailing until Notre Dame comes calling in mid October
2.Oregon - Marcus Mariota as of today is probably Heisman frontrunner
3.Alabama - Gotta be honest never seen a Saban offense this explosive
4.Auburn - Huge road win @ Kstate now they have a nice tune up vs La Tech before the LSU game
5.Oklahoma - Awesome unis. Saturday night in Morgantown !!

Small School Ass whippings of the week
These victories were easier than Miley Cyrus after a molli binge @ the club on Friday night !!

Michigan St. def. Eastern Michigan 73-14 - The Spartan defense has taken a step back this year giving up 22pts per game .. thing is they're 6th in the nation in scoring @ 48pts per game !

Texas A&M def. SMU 58-6 - The Aggies have petitioned for this segment to be called Gig-em !!!

Georgia def Troy 66-0 - Another sad case of 1 undermanned dude forced to take on an elite SEC program.

* A peach state bonus Atlanta Falcons def. Tampa Bay Succaneers 56-14 - I know this is a NFL matchup but the Falcons had to work to not drop 70 on the Bucs and if you give up 56 and lose by over 40 you belong on this list !!

Missouri @ #18 South Carolina - Plain & simple both teams have to get this win to stay in the SEC east race.
