Dropped Out: South Florida (#22), Iowa (#25).

Games Watched: Michigan-Purdue :(, Texas-Texas Tech, Florida-Georgia, Pitt-ND, and a bunch more I'll be watching over the next couple days.

Things I'm not quite sure about: The comparison between Oklahoma and OK State, now that Oklahoma has a really impressive win. Moving down USC after a big win, though I think Florida deserved to move up. Moving Boise State up that much after beating a really ho-hum opponent. Georgia only dropping to #12, though I can't think of anyone that really deserves to move up over them. Cal skyrocketing up after a close win. Moving Georgia Tech up 5 after a really close win over a team that barely makes the poll. Tulsa not dropping completely out after losing to a really bad Arkansas team, when they have few impressive wins. The bottom few teams in general, though I can't really think of anyone else to go there.

This is probably the best I've felt about a draft ballot since the first couple weeks of the year. If I'm forgetting/missing out on anything, leave it in the comments for appropreiate tweaks before the final is due Wednesday morning.
