(Week 2 Bottom 10 Rankings - College Football) Rocked band's ticket to ride
The Bottom 10 inspirational thought of the week:

I've got a feeling, a feeling deep inside
Oh yeah, Oh yeah.
I've got a feeling, a feeling I can't hide
Oh no, Oh no, Oh no,
Yeah, I've got a feeling.

-- "I've Got A Feeling," The Beatles

The Bottom 10's got a feeling, too. In fact, we've got a couple of 'em after Week 1. With the release of "The Beatles: Rock Band" scheduled for Wednesday, we'll let the Fab Four's songs available in that game help us through those feelings about our rocked band of teams.

Losing to Football Championship Subdivision teams definitely gives the Bottom 10 a feeling. The precedent has been set, and Bottom 10 law is clear on the matter. So Duke, Temple and Virginia can come together right now in this week's edition.
<snip>

1. Western Kentucky Record: 1-0 Comment: "Don't Let Me Down": After they put up only seven points and 83 total yards against the Vols, the Bottom 10 is confident the Hilltoppers won't let us down this season.

2. Eastern Michigan 0-1 "Ticket To Ride": A home loss to Army seems to indicate the Eagles will have a season-long ticket to ride in the Bottom 10. And they might be ticketed for a long ride.

3. New Mexico State 0-1 "Eight Days A Week": Even if new coach DeWayne Walker worked the Aggies eight days a week, that might not be enough to get them out of the Bottom 10 in '09.

4. Tulane 0-1 "If I Needed Someone": The Green Wave need someone. In fact, it looks like the Green Wave need a bunch of someones this season.

5. Oregon 0-1 "A Hard Day's Night": The offense struggled. LeGarrette Blount threw that punch. It was a tough first game for new coach Chip Kelly and the Ducks.

6. Virginia 0-1 "Do You Want To Know A Secret": Losing at home to William & Mary will land you in the Bottom 10 -- and put your coach in hot water.

7. Temple 0-1 "Twist And Shout": The Owls definitely are twisting and shouting after losing to neighbor (and FCS team) Villanova, but it's not the feel-good kind the Beatles hit inspired.

8. Duke 0-1 "Come Together": It looked like the Blue Devils had come together around David Cutcliffe, but a loss to Richmond indicates that is not the case -- at least yet.

9. Ball State 0-1 "I Want You": The Bottom 10 does want the Cardinals. We want them so bad, especially after a home loss to preseason No. 1 North Texas.

10. Washington 0-1 "Getting Better": A nation-worst 15 straight losses keeps the Huskies on the list, but don't expect U-Dub to be a part of our rocked band for much longer.

Waiting list: ACC (4-6 nonconference record), Florida Atlantic (0-1), Florida State's clock management, Georgia's offense, Hawks love (0-1), Illinois (0-1), Indiana (1-0), Louisiana-Monroe (0-1), Marshall (1-0), Miami (Ohio) (0-1), New Mexico (0-1), Rice (0-1), Washington State (0-1).

1. Man, I love "I"ve Got a Feeling".
One of the best duets of John and Paul...and coming so late in the game. As for the list- Virginia. "No Grohing Up". He's history.
