Come on, voters. It's only Week 2 and you're already screwing up the polls and making a mockery of the system once again.
...Houston didn't just beat the No. 5 team in the nation, Oklahoma State; it beat the No. 5 team in the nation on the road. There was nothing fluky about the clean 10-point victory, yet the Cowboys are 12th in the coaches' poll (the one that matters) and 16th in the AP (the one that doesn't), while Houston is unranked, UNRANKED, in the coaches' poll, technically getting the No. 27 slot, and 21st in the AP.
Someone needs to be fired for this. The college football world needs to know who's doing this and who missed one of the biggest upsets of the day -- it was on the news and in all the papers -- and voted without actually paying attention to what happened on Saturday. If you think Oklahoma State is a better team than Houston, that's fine, but you can't rank the Cowboys ahead of the Cougars right now. I think Oklahoma is better than BYU, but it's ignoring what happened to rank the Sooners ahead of the Cougars at the moment. Down the road is a different story. - Pete Fiutak
