    Man, I promise I'm not picking on you. I have nothing against you at all, but are you aware Texas beat both OK and OK State? You dropped Texas to 11th for losing to your No. 2 team in the final seconds. Why? Shouldn't they be above OK and OK State? Maybe you don't want to 'punish' teams who didn't lose this week, but aren't you just rewarding OK and OK State for getting their losses a couple of weeks earlier?

    Two top-10 teams, thus far. A middle-of-the-road LSU next week and one of the biggest rivalry games in the country. Then, Florida, in all likelihood.

    I don't. He just seems to represent the voting mindset I've never understood.

    I'm just tired of the Lou Holtz's of the world talking about how you can't punish a team that didn't lose this week by moving them down. Really, Lou? Why not? If a team below them has a better win and the same number of losses, then sure as hell they're moving down. Why should they be rewarded just because their loss came earlier in the year?

    It doesn't make sense to sytematically move people up after a win and drop them deep after a loss. If we're going to do that, we should just get rid of people altogether. A monkey can do that.

    But no, I don't hate Inky. I apologize for picking on him. But I do hate you Tom, you sick motherfucker.

    Two top 10 teams (although only one's still hanging around). Pretty decent whuppins in both.

    ohio state and wasn't virginia ranked at the time they played? throw in some oregon.

    my point is, nobody can say SC has had a cakewalk and then vote bama No. 1 with a straight face.
