My Apology to the East Carolina Pirates and USC No. 1…again

After opening the season by upsetting two ranked teams, the Pirates earned themselves a place in the AP Top 25 for the first time in nine years. I thought week 1 was a total fluke. I was wrong. REALLY wrong.

East Carolina was No. 14 in the media poll released Sunday. Southern California remained No. 1 and Georgia was No. 2.

Ohio State’s sluggish 26-14 victory against Ohio, without star tailback Chris Wells, on Saturday cost the Buckeyes two spots in the rankings. They fell to No. 5 behind No. 3 Oklahoma and No. 4 Florida.

ECU spanked West Virginia. They brutalized them on the line and downfield. WVU strutted on and around the field like a top ranked team, they just didn’t play like it. I can only hope that ECU doesn’t start to buy into all of the hype now. If they can keep playing like they did on Saturday, this could be an epic season for the Pirates.

I will be watching!

PS – oh yeah, Pete Carroll and USC are #1 again…sigh…
