SDSU gets votes with one ugly I-AA win and 2 D2 wins??? UCD has two I-AA wins and a BCS I-A win and no votes??? huh?

I think you meant to say "SDSU gets votes with a win over UCD, which has two I-AA wins and a BCS I-A win, and 2 D2 wins?"

Probably the worst poll of anything I've ever seen in my life. Partly due to App being # TWENTY, but for many other reasons as well. I mean, it's really bad. So bad, I'm not even going to do any research and prove point by point why it's so bad. It's that bad. I wouldn't worry too much though, the playoff committee and anybody with half a brain will realize how BAD it is.

Well yeah, but that's like ranking UCD over Stanford now, despite Stanford's 2 PAC-10 wins and UCD's loss to SDSU. Head to head matchups aren't EVERYTHING

I don't remember... Do playoff teams get selected from the Bison Insider Poll? Does the anygivensaturday.com poll decide who goes to the playoffs? Did being in the Top 10-15 in the final polls last year help Cal Poly get into the playoffs? Do all polls have to appear the same or with the exact same teams? Let the season playout and then we'll see if this poll was bad or not. I rather enjoy the NDSU fan sites (Bison Insider & Bisonville). Too bad more fans don't take the time to do something worthwhile for their teams. Go Stangs!!!

Although you may not agree with their poll, it's still a great site for Bison fans and Great West fans.

They do have some great gameday articles, mostly about the Bison and their opponents.

Its as good as anybody elses! Hey I wish Costal was in the top 15 and I agree App is not represented. But I have those types of issues with every pole. At least GSU isnt in there and Texas State is right at #10. I think they might be in striking range of a national title just like Cal Poly.

Poll differences might reflect TV/Media coverage from the different areas?

Obviously, Ralph you didn't get the point. A poll and which teams are in the poll mean absolutely nothing unless your talking BCS which is determined by polls. I'm not losing any sleep.
