Who's the one who keeps voting for Boise State on the AP?

UO's beaten 2 ranked teams (FSU and UT), Wisconsin's beaten 1 (Nebraska). So while Wisconsin may have the "better" loss, I don't think they have the better resume and I think most would pick them to win head-to-head. Doesn't seem strange to keep them ahead.
Wisconsin goes on the road to M. State and loses on a Hail Flutie and gets bounced to 11.
Oklahomo gets bounced at Norman by this team ummm... Texas Tech I believe and goes to 9.
OOOOO Coaches really....

AP Poll:
1. LSU (49) 8-0 1,489 1
2. Alabama (10) 8-0 1,448 2
3. Oklahoma St. 7-0 1,326 6
4. Stanford 7-0 1,318 7
5. Boise St. (1) 7-0 1,269 5
6. Clemson 8-0 1,225 8
7. Oregon 6-1 1,136 9
8. Arkansas 6-1 1,003 10
9. Michigan St. 6-1 964 15
10. Kansas St. 7-0 945 12
I would love to know who keeps giving Boise St. a vote for #1.

Oklahoma and Wisconsin got 31+1 = 32 votes last week. Of those 32, LSU got 26
and Bama got 6.
Of course, we can whine about 6 votes that LSU did not get. Or that coaches poll preferred LSU 5:1 over Bama.
BCS ranking should be OK. WV lost to Syracuse costing LSU some points. Thankfully, Oregon is still holding serve.

It's a writer in CA, I saw his column last week but can't recall his name.

And he has USCw in the top 25.
Pretty sure I can make a better top 25 poll than this joker.

After watching LSU yesterday, not sure which rank is a bigger joke, Boise at 1 or Auburn at 12.

This is a perfect example of how to pull names out of a hat. I only feel sorry for AP having to deal with ballots like this. I am sure they are embarrassed, as is the Daily News.

Or GT at 19 who just lost 2 weeks in a row to unrankedcteams. You're clueless about college football Wolfie. Never seen a writer so inept at their job.

I don't really blame Wolf for this mess. He's helpless. I blame the Daily News for allowing this to continue year after year after year. And why the AP doesn't step in here and strip this voter of this privilege is beyond comprehension.
Earth to the D. News editors -- are you alive?

Holy Cow, Wolf, I got as far as Boise State at #1 and had to quit reading. What's your deal??

Wolf needs to quit it. We get the point but there is not a person with half a brain who would put Boise in the LSU/Bama class.

I'm sure he'd claim some shite like, "well auburn has only lost to teams in the top 10." those 3 have beaten auburn by a combined 73 points though so clearly they don't belong near the top 10.

LSU beats Bama rather easily IMO.

Oklahoma shouldn't be in the top 10
Posted on 10/23/11 at 12:23 pm to RollTide316
I don't see why not. What 1-loss team besides maybe Oregon would anyone pick against Oklahoma?
