Is it amusing, offensive, or just plain dumb that people who vote USC No. 1 are immediately getting labeled as "FANBOY!!!!!!!"?

Texas did have an insane four-game Big XII stretch this season. But again, the conference is what it is., They did not seek those games, and I still think that's only part of the resume. Lauding a team because the other teams in their conference happened to be good, and ripping a team because the other teams in their conference happened to suck, is judging a team based on things they cannot control.

Now, the schedule Texas chose:

Florida Atlantic
UTEP
Rice (Why does Rice play Texas? WE CHOOSE THE MOON!")
Arkansas

Well, at least they tried with Arkansas. They should get a pass for Rice, for the traditional matchup. But the first two schools have no business on the schedule of a Texas-caliber program. Oklahoma, USC and Utah all had better nonconference slates.

Yes, I know: "FANBOIY!!!!!"

You'll have my ballot, with Utah at No. 1 regardless of what happens Thursday, by the deadline.

Likewise, is it amusing, offensive or just plain dumb that people who vote Oklahoma (should it win Thursday) or Texas No. 1 are immediately getting labeled as "FANBOY!!!!!!!"? Because it goes both ways.

And what about those who are labeled 'dumb' for having Texas No. 1?

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Final poll note for voters, Page 113

You can have my poll now, slap.

1. Abortions
2. Miniature American Flags
3. Iowa
4-25. Pick 'em

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Final poll note for voters, Page 113

Ummmm, ok...

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Final poll note for voters, Page 113

I knew it. I knew you were the one.

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Final poll note for voters, Page 113

1) Indiana State
2) Ohio
3) Montana

After that, who gives a rat's ass

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Final poll note for voters, Page 113

Thanks SC, more work for me.

Like Elliotte, I'm keeping Texas No. 1 too.

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- Final poll note for voters, Page 113

Not quite sure if Texas will remain my No. 1 yet. If Oklahoma wins -- especially if it's not a total domination -- the 'Horns will almost surely stay at the top. If Florida wins a squeaker, Texas probably stays at No. 1.

If Florida dominates, I might have to rethink it. Start from scratch, look at overall resume, and see where it takes me.
