Alabama remains No. 1, Clemson drops to No. 4 in Amway Coaches Poll

The Amway Coaches Poll top five looks a bit different this week, even though all the teams won over the weekend.

Alabama easily retained the top spot following a non-conference win against UL-Lafayette. The Crimson Tide again claimed 61 of 64 first-place votes. Fellow SEC contender Georgia moved up to the No. 2 spot, however, and Ohio State was elevated to No. 3 after its comeback win at Penn State. Those two nudged ahead of Clemson. The Tigers were able to survive an upset bid from previously undefeated Syracuse, and they continued to receive a pair of No.-1 votes. But the Tigers lost enough points on some ballots to slip to No. 4 overall. Oklahoma and LSU held steady in the fifth and sixth positions, respectively, after conference wins on Saturday.

Stock up: Notre Dame. It was only a one-position gain, but it was a big spot as the Fighting Irish pulled away from Stanford to climb to No. 7.

Stock down: Stanford. The Cardinal will still be a player in the Pac-12 hunt, but the loss at Notre Dame knocked them down seven spots to No. 14.

TOP 25: Amway Coaches Poll
Stock up: West Virginia. The Mountaineers passed a big road test at Texas Tech and vaulted four places to No. 8.

Stock down: Penn State. The Nittany Lions’ gut-wrenching loss to Ohio State only cost them two poll positions as they check in at No. 11, but they’ll need a lot of help now to win the Big Ten East.

Stock up: Kentucky. The Wildcats stayed unbeaten and moved up two places to No. 15, and now with wins in hand against both Florida and South Carolina, they are the main challengers to Georgia in the SEC East.

Stock down: Miami. Through no fault of their own, the Hurricanes, who dominated North Carolina Thursday night, slip one spot to No. 17.

New kids on the block: No. 22 Colorado, No. 25 North Carolina State.

College dropouts: Mississippi State, Duke.

In his proposal, Wesson noted that Obama held a campaign rally at Rancho Cienega Park on Rodeo Road when running for president and that the area already has streets named after presidents, such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

Why Christopher Reeve's ''Superman' Is So Hard to Leave in the Past

#ChristopherReeve #Clarkkent #DCcomics #LoisLane #RichardDonner #Superman Forty years ago, Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve made a Superhero film that directors have been chasing for years, depicting who America was then — or at least who we wished to be Superman. It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease. Flight is most often the bare minimum of what we expect from heroes and villains who can perform any feat limited only by the human imagination. It’s not simply special effects that permit our belief, but rather an overall acceptance that these costume-clad characters are a defining part of our culture, modern myths at their best and populist cinematic staples akin to the 20th century western at their lowest form. There have been a record nine theatrically released superhero movies based on comic books this year alone, each claiming a major piece of the glo...
