Many stories this week sympathizing with the University of South Florida not being ranked in the Top 25 after their OT win at Auburn on Saturday Night.
Sports Illustrated uses the AP story and this just illustrates all that is broken about the polling system. This is why I like the Unofficial BCS Fan Poll – Where every college football fan’s vote counts!.
Just getting off the ground, it allows fans who more than likely watch more games than the coaches to vote for the real Top 25. They are very serious about this as well – my vote for Alabama in the Top Ten was questioned since it was statistically out of line with the other pollsters. I saw the error of my ways (and my uber-excitement over Major Applewhite and Lou Saban turning the Tide) and we are one big happy poll now!
