Auburn pulls down 42 of 48 first-place votes and is your BlogPoll national champion. Also appearing in the top 25 are No. 7 LSU, No. 10 Alabama, No. 12 Arkansas, No. 16 Mississippi State, and No. 22 South Carolina.

The Central Florida Knights, who beat the Bulldogs in the Liberty Bowl, check in at No. 21. The Boise State Broncos, who open against the Bulldogs in the Georgia Dome next fall, ended up ranked eighth.

For the record, my ballot finished third in the running for "Mr. Bold."
