🏈 This AP Voter is on some serious drugs

Here's my AP poll ballot



Submitted by Michael DiRocco on Tue, 09/08/2009 - 10:20.

I have the honor of being a voter in the Associated Press Top 25 this season. Each week I’ll be giving you my ballot for you to criticize. That will happen on Sunday because that’s when the poll is usually released.
It’s Tuesday this week because of last night’s FSU-Miami game.
A few things you should know:
I have no problem moving a team significantly, even if they win. That’ll usually happen after the top 10 because I think there’s a clear separation between the top 10 and everyone else.
Injuries will affect my vote, because losing key players changes teams. I flirted with putting Oklahoma out of the top 15 for a while because the Sooners are clearly not a great team without Sam Bradford. However, they are pretty darn good so I kept them in the top 10, for now.

Here’s my Week 1 ballot

1. Florida
2. Texas
3. Southern California
4. LSU
5. Oklahoma State
6. Alabama
7. Boise State
8. Penn State
9. Oklahoma
10. Ohio State
11. Ole Miss
12. California
13. Virginia Tech
14. BYU
15. TCU
16. Georgia Tech
17. North Carolina
18. Utah
19. West Virginia
20. Oregon
21. Nebraska
22. Georgia
23. Florida State
24. Texas Tech
25. Notre Dame

What an idiot. :lance:

LSU #4...:rofl: U Dub hadn't won a game in how long? They gave LSU all they wanted. After watching them play I am no longer concerned about our game with them. The Les Miles era is officially underway. No more Nick Saban influence. (and it's obvious)

Maybe that writer is hoping that LSU comes out on top somehow and his team doesn't have to face the Tide.

The scary part about this is that he actually has a vote in something. I would LOVE to hear his justification for moving Alabama down a spot after winning against a team he still keeps in his top 15 with a loss yet moving LSU not only into the top 10 but his top 5 after barely beating a team that was 0-12 last year .. :headscratch:

 

[Swamptick]

It's not real. It is a fake article.

What an idiot. :lance:

Sure is. A smart (no such thing) UF fan (as he obviously is) would have ut at #2 to give UF some schedule strength (they sure need it).

How the hell does Alabama beat a #7 VT and drop down while LSU moves up after struggling against Washington who was 0-12 last year? How can you even defend that logic?

 

[JoshB]

Not only that but VT loses to #5 and BYU beats #3 but VT is still above BYU? Miami beats #18 FSU yet FSU is still in the Top 25 but Miami isn't? Good god, get this guy to rehab quick.
