George's Top Twenty (or so) - Week five 1. Maryland Terrapins 2. Air Force Falcons 3. Nebraska Cornhuskers 4. Auburn Tigers 5. Ohio State Buckeyes George P. Burdell George's Football Picks Atlanta, Georgia {gatech,ihnp4,mcnc,ncsu,akgua}!msdc!gpb /* End of text from uiucdcsb:net.sport.football */ Something funny is going on around here. I was mildly amused to see George rank #1 the once beaten Terps (at home against Penn State). But then I saw the AP poll this week, and the SEVENTEENTH-ranked Terps got one FIRST place vote. So what gives? Is George on the AP panel of sportswriters? Is George THAT influential? I'd like George to respond. Stephen L.
