AP ranked teams not in my poll:
AP Rank Team My Points Record
7. Georgia 0.286 4-0
10. Tennessee -5.769 1-1
15. Alabama -4.163 4-0
19. Virginia -9.080 3-0
23. Iowa St. -17.083 3-0
24. Louisville -9.434 2-1
25. Georgia Tech -1.701 3-1
The rankings for LSU and Tennessee should be considered preliminary due to lack of games played (Monday Night's game is not included). Texas Tech's ranking should be considered an extremely rough estimate, due to their absolutely pathetic scheduling. South Florida's ranking is likely a fluke benefiting from their massacre of Louisville which was likely a huge overachievement, I do not expect them to stick in the rankings for very long.
Yes, I realize that several SEC schools are ranked lower than expected, but I trust my ranking system and some of them will likely move up anyways (the poll is primarily a indicated of results and not projection). I promise I don't hate the SEC, if anything past years have shown me to be slightly pro Big 12 and Big 10 and anti Pac 10. I also realized the two North Carolina schools are ranked really high, I will be really interested to find to what extend I am overrating them and/or everyone else is underrating them and the middle of the ACC (Although I do have Virginia a lot lower than most). I'll also be interested in seeing the extent to which I have overrated the top of the SEC and/or everyone else is overrating them.
Conference Power Rankings
Rank Conference Points
1. ACC 99.065
2. Pac 10 94.880
3. Big 10 93.311
4. SEC 90.806
5. Big 12 86.870
6. MT West 84.712

8. Conf. USA 78.205
9. WAC 74.880
10. MAC 73.690
11. Sun Belt 63.549
The ACC looks to be clearly the best conference now. The Mountain West is interesting as they have a large number of decent teams but no standout. It looks to be a big down year for the Big 12 and the MAC, as well as Conf. USA (but they have changed so many teams it's not a fair comparison to previous years of the conference). The Sun Belt is really a 1-A conference in name only, and they are actually likely to worse than their points would indicate.

Any help with concerning the format of this post would be appreciated. I made it in word and got all of the categories lined up nicely using tabs (sadly blogger for word did not allow those to be imported nicely). Spaces added manually seem to be ignored.
I clicked on this blog and only got football!!
Have you tried the numbered list feature on the Compose tab?
I hadn't tried that before you suggested it. It appears that would only help to line up the team names, and not the points, records, and AP rank.
*shows off*
Would you like me to show you how to make a table in HTML?
Well, I've done html tables before (dynamically generated in JavaScript no less). So you think that html tables would be the way to get the organization I want in blogger?
