Here’s my ballot for this week’s CBS Sports College Football BlogPoll hosted by — as you might imagine — CBS Sports.

Final Season Ballot

Through 09 January 2009

Well, it all came down to the Florida Gators and the Oklahoma Sooners.  As many prognosticators predicted, it was Florida all the way.  Now, with the 2008-09 BCS Championship game in the books, it is time for the final BlogPoll Ballots of the 2008-2009 season.  Thus, here is in my final BlogPoll ballot, without explanation.  I will be posting a little analysis later on today, but I wanted to go ahead and get my final ballot up as early as possible so people could go ahead and start flaming.  Either way, here it is:

My Final Ballot for the 2008-09 Football Season

Rank	Team	Delta
1	Florida	–
2	Utah	3
3	Southern Cal	1
4	Texas	1
5	Oklahoma	3
6	Oregon	6
7	Alabama	1
8	TCU	5
9	Georgia	10
10	Penn State	1
11	Mississippi	5
12	Ohio State	4
13	Boise State	6
14	Texas Tech	4
15	Missouri	5
16	Virginia Tech	9
17	Cincinnati	6
18	Oklahoma State	3
19	Rice	5
20	Oregon State	6
	Iowa	5
22	Northwestern	8
23	Michigan State	5
24	Florida State	2
25	LSU	1

Dropped Out: Pittsburgh (#17), Ball State (#21), Brigham Young (#22), Georgia Tech (#23).

Obviously, there is a lot to talk about in this ballot—including a few seemingly unorthodox choices (such as the Texas dropping one spot, Utah leap-frogging to the second spot, and Georgia rocketing upward).  I hope to get a a little analysis up later today.  For now, however, this is how I see things.

The Rest of the BlogPoll

Having taken the time to consider my feeble attempt at ranking the powers in college football, feel free to try and convince me that I am wrong — which is part of the way the BlogPoll is supposed to work.  I promise that I will consider all comments.

As for the rest of the BlogPoll, well, you can check out how other bloggers voted and how your team fared across the blogosphere over at MGOBlog, and view the final BlogPoll Top 25 later this week over at CBS Sports.

More later today…
