I'm shocked. Honestly, what bothers me more is that the AP and Coaches polls have the exact same top eight. (Even though it didn't help my Dawgs), I've got respect for, oh say, FIU coach Mario Cristobal for going: 1 LSU, 2 Oklahoma, 3 Mizzu, 4 Kansas, 5 Georgia, 6 OSU, 7 WVU, 8 USC, not because he's right, (because who the hell is "right" this year), but because that's how he saw it, and if he thinks OSU didn't have a quality win, because maybe he actually WATCHED the Michigan game, then he puts them at 6 and risks being chastized by the press and the 46 of 60 coaches who didn't differ from popular opinion.

Bobby Bowden has Missouri #6 and OU #10. We beat them TWICE!!! We know that Stoops really made a bad choice putting LSU behind VTech (for the same reasoning). But the overall point is valid - these coaches' votes are ridiculous. What about the four coaches (Bowden Jr. and Sr, Schellenberger and Belotti) putting Oklahoma BEHIND Missouri in the rankings?

Nothing is too crazy. Who's to say LSU is deserving of a top two ranking? They are four play away from being 6-6. Missouri would be undefeated if it weren't for Oklahoma. The worst rankings are Texas and Georgia. And neither really had much of a shot at the big prize. I think Bobby Bowden having OU at 12th is deserving of losing your vote. But LSU at 6th isn't a reach. They have looked mediocre at times this year and they have a horrible coach. I see very few problems with Bob’s ballot. Nothing is too crazy.

If the ballot doesn't add up, they should hand it back and say "nice try...do it again" I'll take the Bucks in the Championship game though! :D It’s BS that they willingly accept such biased ballots.

Frank Beamer ranked VT #2, the highest that anyone (sans the computers) ranked them... but he ranked LSU #1, at least how I read the graphics, so he still gets some credit for not sandbagging his top competitor for the championship game.
