I'm still mystified as to why Florida State is getting votes for winning two preseason games against I-AA teams.

You're gonna be more than mystified in a couple of hours...

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- WEEK 2 (9/8), Page 28

I didn't vote for them. If Florida State is getting votes, so should Notre Dame. And that's never going to happen.

Forgot to post this yesterday when I sent it to slappy. No vote for Free Shoes U. from me, though I must say it was a struggle to fill out those last three spots.

1 Southern Cal
2 Oklahoma
3 Missouri
4 Georgia
5 Florida
6 LSU
7 Texas
8 Alabama
9 Auburn
10 South Florida
11 East Carolina
12 Wisconsin
13 BYU
14 Texas Tech
15 Penn State
16 Oregon
17 Wake Forest
18 Utah
19 Kansas
20 Ohio State
21 Vanderbilt
22 North Carolina
23 Arizona State
24 Virginia Tech
25 Fresno State

Out (and never to be seen again): Cal, UCLA
In: North Carolina, Virginia Tech (welcome back, Hokies ... by default)
Biggest jump: South Florida (up 10 spots)
Biggest fall: Ohio State, Arizona State (down 12 spots)

Anybody casting a vote for Florida State before the Seminoles play Wake Forest should be disenfranchised due to sheer stupidity.

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- WEEK 2 (9/8), Page 28

Fixed.

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- WEEK 2 (9/8), Page 28

;D 8) That too.

People, seriously ... I was raised on Florida State football and met Coach Bowden when he was in his third season in Tallahassee (I was in fifth grade). If I'm not buying this yet, why the hell are any of you buying it? Check back after they play Wake Forest.

Can't speak for others, but my inclusion of FSU was of the "Eh, somebody's got to go into this spot."

Like others have said, once you get past the top five or six, I think you could draw names from a hat.

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- WEEK 2 (9/8), Page 28

Someone had to go there.

I thought about putting North Carolina there, but figured that would be viewed as too fanboi-ish.

 

Re: 2008 SportsJournalists.com college football poll -- WEEK 2 (9/8), Page 28

Yeah, same here. I put them at 24... the last few spots could have been filled by about 6 or 7 teams.
