Who the fuck votes for the College Football Top 25?

[Slyfox696]

Because they are morons. Let's see...

USC loses to an unranked Washington team on the road, and they are ranked 7. Notre Dame loses to #20 Michigan on the road, and they are unranked, despite winning their last game bereft of two of the leading yardage men in college football in Armando Allen and Michael Floyd.

Kansas, on the strength of a 4-0 record beating notable powerhouses such as Northern Colorado, UTEP, Duke and Southern Miss are ranked #18, but Missouri, who has actually played big boy competition, is unranked. How does that work? Missouri has beaten Illinois and Nevada...Kansas has beaten N. Colorado who won 1 game last year, and Duke, a perenial football doormat.

I'm not done.


California gets absolutely thumped on the road to an unranked Oregon team and drops to 24, but Notre Dame gets beat at the end of the game at Michigan, and falls completely out of the rankings. BYU gets absolutely shelled by an unranked FSU team and is ranked at 20...Notre Dame, well you know. Oh, and Missouri hasn't lost yet.


Correct me if I'm wrong, but is this not stupid? How is BYU, Cal, etc. ahead of Notre Dame and Missouri? How is Kansas ranked, but Mizzou is not?

Do people just not put any thought into this?




And yes, I realize I'm bitching about my favorite teams getting slighted. Which they have been. I also realize the season is still young. But, still.

Yeah the voting for the college football is usually not accurate from what i heard.

Yeah from the what i have heard the voting for the college football top 25 is usually not accurate. I myself would like to know votes for these anyway.

As a fellow Irish fan, I concur. It's a shame the people who do those rankings want Michigan to be good so badly. That is why I can't stand any team from the Big Ten. Period. Overrated.

And Mizzou's gotta tough road ahead of them. And should get more love than they've gotten in the past.

Missouri should be in the top 15. Houston should be in the top 10. USC can kiss my ass. Notre Dame should be ranked. Purdue is a tough place to win with a healthy QB.

 

[Razor]

Arkansas is still unranked, right? We damn well deserve it. :shame:

 

[Shocky]

The AP voters are a fucking joke, much like the coaches poll. People vote simply for the name on the front of the jersey, or the Conference in which they play in. I know the SEC is the best conference in the country,b ut for teams like LSU, Georgia and Ole Miss to be ranked as highly as they are, is ridiculous. The ACC having as many ranked teams as well is a joke.

 

[TSG]

Yeah, these voters have a orgasm every time they see the name USC then screw much more deserving teams to put them up high.

 

[Mr. TM]

Sorry, I rank them.

I just pick on how cute their mascot is.
