GT jumps in the AP poll again.

....this week we have moved to #5 !!! Great going Jackets!! UConn has moved back to #1, which for GT fans should be considered a good thing. After all, their only loss was to.....the Jackets. And guess what - 14 first place votes. Rock-on!! Here is a link with the new list.

Other ACC teams:

Duke......#3 (1 first place vote)
UNC.......#4 (6 first place votes)
GT..........#5 (14 first place votes)
WF.........#14
MD.........#25
FSU........#32
Virginia...#35
NC ST.....#36

Major props to the ACC - the team NOT in the top 40 - poor Clemson. Can't tell you how disappointed I was they couldn't knock out UGA. That is TWO SEC losses for Clemson.

Also, thanks to "Sideways the Dog" for giving us this link to SI.com's Power Rankings, where GT happens to be #1.

Here is an interesting story about Gary Guyton (on our football team), who hung up his hoops career to study engineering at GaTech.
