Alabama is now the target as the new BCS Poll is out.  Gators are within striking distance.

       As expected, the Crimson Tide is the new #1, with Texas Tech right behind.  Penn State is still hanging around thanks to a weak Big Ten Conference.  Texas’s near comeback late in Saturday’s game impressed the pollsters enough to keep them among the top four, which I don’t disagree with.  Urban Meyer’s Gators move up three spots, setting up what could be the most exciting finish ever for a spot in the BCS title game.

   Here’s the top BCS 10:

1.      Alabama

2.      Texas Tech

3.      Penn State

4.      Texas

5.      Florida

6.      Oklahoma

7.      USC

8.      Utah

9.     Oklahoma State

10.   Boise State

22. Florida State
