Nice call on Texas and Tech and the rest of that... you really swung and missed hard. Nice loss to Iowa BTW - that was priceless. Enjoy watching any team aside from Penn State playing for the NC, maybe one day your garbage conference will grow up and be a force again.... but I dont see it happening for a good long while. LMAO..

This is the same preseason poll where Duke used to (until this year it seems) get an automatic vote from Steve Spurrier as a thank you for his first shot at a head coaching job. If the coaches don't even take their preseason votes seriously, why should you? . As for the "coaches that are actually out there working with these young men" argument? It is just naive to think that Jim Tressel or even Rich Rod spends their time evaluating the ranking position of any team other than their own. Most coaches poll ballots are not even filled out by the head coaches, so you might want to know that before you berate someone else.

That's only because I'm assuming you're one, based on how you reacted to a very civil, innocuous post. You do realize that this isn't a cooperative effort by the coaches, right? Not every coach had this as his top 25. As a matter of fact I assume that right now, some coach, say, Mark Mangino is reading this and saying "Wow, Devon is right! He can read my mind as to why I chose to leave Michigan, Oregon, and Illinois off of my top 25. Now I need a donut." Seriously, buddy, thanks for reading, but I really think you have no right to be offended whatsoever. Unless you're actually Mark Mangino. In which case, sorry. But see, I said I liked your team. Sorta. Well either way, we're even. Not only do I think I know more than the coaches, Freddie, I know that I know more than the coaches.

You think you know more than the coaches that are actually out there working with these young men. You need to quit being a fan and start going to ballet or something. Get a life What an idiot.
