#15 in AP Poll

[Sea Ray]

10 SEC teams and thats without UF. I assume that's a record.

But do we have any teams as food as the B10's top 3, OSU, PSU, Oregon? Time will tell

 

[Voltrapnbama]

That is the story with most or all of the Big Ten teams.

I agree 100 percent!

It truly is amazing that there are millions of dollars at stake and the schools, conferences, etc. allowed the media to be the arbiter for so long.

Amen, brother.

I feel the same way about the crooked "committee", all of whom have their own biases, like any human being. It'll never happen, but the only fair method would be a computer algorithm of some kind. I refuse to believe in this day and age of technological possibilities that someone can't come up with a method that would be infinitely better than a bunch of suits with axes to grind.

But does the B10 have any teams as good as our top 4, Tennessee, LSU, Georgia, and Texas?* Time will tell.




* note that I'm putting those teams in order based on next week's AP poll. Heh. Go Vols!

Here is a video of a moron AP poll voter. If ya ever wonder why the poll never makes any sense, here is an answer.

The kind of person that wins the office March Madness bracket by picking their favorite mascots.

There is a problem with that. It seems that whatever algorithm was chosen, could be played to by coaches to manipulate their position in the rankings. It would definitely open a few slots on staff for programmers reverse engineering the algorithm.

The voters need to be handpicked. Go with people that actually likes watching football and not reality TV like the bachelor would be a good start.

Now that's Food for fodder for the SEC

Possibly true, but I'll rest my case with this AP voter we just saw. My guess is she's more the rule than exception.

OSU and Oregon possibly. We probably have a half dozen schools that would kick Penn State's creampuff schedule ass.

I was just waiting for her to say, "One time, at band camp...."

Found a dated but good article:

Who gets to vote in the Associated Press Poll? How and who chooses them?

Just how are the voters of college football's Associated Press Poll selected? Marky Billson takes a look.
