Valid point. And there's no arguing that, either.

But head-to-head has to count for something ... right?

If you take the head to head argument, I guess Texas Tech should remain ahead of Texas, because the Red Raiders beat them.

At this point, with these three teams, head to head doesn't matter as much to me. Now it is about how they won.

Nope. They'd lose to Florida.

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Week 12 (11/17) Page 87

I can see that, too.

I don't know. This ballot will probably be as hard to fill out as the first few weeks of the season.

Of course, piling on doesn't work with some voters either

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Week 12 (11/17) Page 87

True, but it was 42-7 in the first half.

The Sooners called the dogs off to some extent. They could have scored late in the fourth and didn't.

Can I vote three teams tied for one spot?

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Week 12 (11/17) Page 87

I was all set to send my ballot in.

Then I realized UConn, My No. 21 team, plays tonight.

Dammit.

You are not running out of time.

But how can you have more than one Big Least team ranked?

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Week 12 (11/17) Page 87

The question is not how, but why

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Week 12 (11/17) Page 87

To flip that argument, right now, it appears Oklahoma lost to a much better team on the road (that game is at Dallas, at the Texas State Fair ... it's a road game) than Texas did on the road.

So by that rationale, the Sooners ought to be ranked ahead of Texas, especially with their non-conference resume (TCU, Cincy), which is looking better and better by the week.

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Week 12 (11/17) Page 87

I had Cincy and Pitt close to each other, with UConn at 21. Pitt falls out and UConn could with a loss or a crappy showing.
