A few thoughts on week 4

• Clemson at Florida State certainly lived up to the hype. And the Seminoles were very impressive in the second half.
• Clemson have fallen 7 places in this weeks AP rankings to 17. That's a bit harsh for me as I think this game showed the rankings were about right for both teams.
• However, Florida States strength was supposed to be its defence. In its first real test it concedes 37 points. Is it good enough to challenge for the national title?
• Are Notre Dame for real this year, or was the Michigan game just more evidence for a poor year for the Big 10?
• Denard Robinson again struggled against a good defence. I'm starting to suspect he is what would be referred to in cricket as a flat track bully.
• LSU struggled to beat Auburn. Is this a sign that they are ranked too high? Or a sign that they are a good side who win even when they play badly?
• The SEC East could be very interesting this year with South Carolina, Georgia and Florida all making impressive starts to the season. We'll know a lot more about this on 6th October when Georgia are at South Carolina and Florida play LSU.
