Posted by deaconcat08 on October 11, 2009

The Week 6 CFRA poll is ready to be released to the public.  Here are few highlights:  for the first time since this poll was reborn earlier this year, a team other than Florida has landed a first place first.  Also, the voters in this poll, unlike those in the AP and Coahces, are sticking to their guns in regard to Boise State and not moving teams like Southern Cal and Virginia Tech ahead of the Broncos for no apparent reason.  Here are this week’s rankings:

1.  Florida (7)- 199 points

2.  Alabama (1)- 189 points

3.  Texas- 188 points
