The week three installment of the BlogPoll was released yesterday, and Louisville dropped 11 spots from No. 10 to No. 21. The bloggers should be commended for rightfully placing Kentucky (No. 17) ahead of the Cards, punishing Texas, Wisconsin and Virginia Tech more for their sluggish starts than either of the two major national polls, and for getting Cincinnati into the poll at No. 25.

For the second straight week LSU sits atop the poll, which looks like this:

1. LSU (34)
   
2. USC (27)
   
3. Oklahoma (1)
   
4. Florida (3)
   
5. West Virginia
   
6. California
   
7. Ohio State
   
8. Penn State
   
9. Texas
   
10. Oregon
    
11. Boston College
    
12. Wisconsin
    
13. Rutgers
    
14. South Carolina
    
15. Alabama
    
16. Clemson
    
17. Kentucky
    
18. South Florida
    
19. Texas A&M
    
20. Missouri
    
21. Louisville
    
22. Georgia
    
23. Virginia Tech
    
24. Hawaii
    
25. Cincinnati

Additionally, I'm happy to announce that I won a poll award for the first time since becoming a voter before the start of last season, nabbing "The Straight Bangin' Award" which is basically given to the voter who hates their team the most.
