We’ve been looking for things in which to take solace during this dark hour, and we think we might have found something: there are currently more Pac-10 teams in the Top 10 than there are SEC teams. The count is 3-2 in the AP poll

1. LSU (65) 6-0 1,625
2. California 5-0 1,538
3. Ohio State 6-0 1,511
4. Boston College 6-0 1,346
5. South Florida 5-0 1,339
6. Oklahoma 5-1 1,221
7. South Carolina 5-1 1,183
8. West Virginia 5-1 1,059
9. Oregon 4-1 1,047
10. USC 4-1 1,024

and 3-1 in the Coaches poll.

1. LSU (58) 6-0 1,498
2. California 5-0 1,416
3. Ohio State (2) 6-0 1,399
4. Boston College 6-0 1,283
5. Oklahoma 5-1 1,145
6. South Florida 5-0 1,145
7. USC 4-1 1,000
8. Oregon 4-1 936
9. West Virginia 5-1 931
10. Virginia Tech 5-1 913

In fact, we’ve also got the edge (4-3) if you look at the Top 15. So we might’ve lost our edge with the oddsmakers, but at least we’ve got this going for us, which is nice.
