Here are my computer rankings through the week ending 27-Sep-92.

Washington remains #1 with Michigan and Notre Dame moving up after big
wins.  Miami's 1 point win dropped them from #3 to #14.  They will have
an opportunity to move back up again if they do well in the FSU game.

My rankings were a dismal 13-27-1 against the spread for a season total
of 82-73-3.  My best 3 picks against the spread were 2-1 for a season
total of 11-1.  I had a good week in Chris Stassens pool at 771.68 but
Sagarin and Gupta beat me again.

I welcome comments and suggestions.
