BLOGPOLL BALLOT: WOOOOOOO LATE EDITION

Ohio State has the status in the Big Ten of being the world’s biggest fifth grader, the one who whips ass in bushels until he gets to junior high, gets pummeled by even larger bullies, and then reinvents himself as sad tubby goth for the remainder of their adolescence.

Dead solid perfect, sir.

Pickin’ Nits by USC-w Fan Dept:

1) The Coaches Poll ranks USC-w at # 4. (Brainiacs!)

2) The Harris Poll ranks USC-w at #5. (Mensa Members!)

3) The AP ranks USC-w at #6 (Nerds!)

4) This EDSBS poll just ranks (as in stinks). USC at 9?! Gimme a break.

But, I do like that Okie State is getting some respect here, unlike other polls.

I am currently envious of the Minnesota football program.

Please kill me.

UF sure is getting a lot more credit for losing to a mediocre team at home and beating the shit out of good team than USC is for losing to a bad team on the road and beating the shit out of a good team. Just a thought.

So what, you get an interview from the fat white guy then you drop his team from the Blogpoll?

You sir – are a playa

Ohio State= Strong Sad?

Discuss.

Thank you, sir, for recognizing my scrappy team’s efforts to date by placing them at the bottom spot of your poll. You are now on my Christmas card list.

SKLM –
Hardly a fault worth “gimme a break” –
flip a coin with Florida for the top 1-loss spot (USC-w with the “better loss,” UF with the “better win”); probably should be ahead of Oklahoma (“better loss,” but “no great win”); and Georgia (“bad loss,” but “no great win”). So, you’re looking at 6 or 7 vs. 9. Big 12 will start eating its own, as will UF / UGA, so there’s no reason to pick nits at this point.

Way too much love for the Big Ten. Penn State is really good. Ohio State has an all-world defense. But that’s it. MSU is decent but Northwestern is an average team and Minnesota is also average but beating other average teams.

I hate to say this but Pitt should be ranked. If they don’t get in their own way…there’s no reason they shouldn’t be 10-1 coming up to Hartford to play UConn. They have a great defense, a decent QB and a ridiculous RB in McCoy. Man I fuckin hate Pitt too.

Hey! No love for GTech after our thrilling W over Gardner… Oh wait, never mind.

@ TCOAN in # 6

Does that make Mike Leech Coach Z?
Is Terry Bowden the Poop Smith?
Greg Robinson as Marzipan?

Right-On Dept:

1. - You make sense…no need to pick nits at this point……

….But that Bobbing-Obama-Head-Ad on this site is making me nuts (more so than usual)…

a fish taco batterfried whole, drizzled in spicy Malay barbecue sauce, and then cut into medallions and served with injera and stewed fruit

pfft… I’m sure someone knocked out like four of those at the saxeT state fair last weekend.

5 Big Televen teams…

5 SEC teams…

I counted 5 times to make sure.

auburn stinks

USC was pretty bad this weekend, box score aside.

I keep working on my argument for putting UGa up higher, but it keeps not making sense.

Texas Tech – use a little more wax on those wings.

Cincinnati Bearcats should be at least 21 on this poll.

You’re going to regret the Penn State comment.

OSU doesn’t own PSU like Michigan does.

and believe me, as a buckstache, it’s hard to give tSUN any props, but Michigan OWNS state penn.

Michigan State is the Teen Girl Squad. I’m not sure if they’re great yet, but so far? SO GOOD!

Correction: USC’s offense was pretty bad this weekend. Of their 28 points, 7 came from a pick-six and another seven were gifted by a Sun Devil turnover deep in their own territory. The Trojans had five secind-half turnovers as well, not that they did Sparky a damn bit of good. I believe ASU had 5 red zone trips and came away empty in all of them.

I find no fault with this ranking whatsoever.

Ohio State is more like Homestar, red-shirt wearing idiots blissfully unaware of the pummeling they are about to receive by Strong Bad/The SEC Champion.

It’s a sad day for the PAC 10 when it has fewer ranked teams than the Mountain West and is tied by the WAC. East Coast bias indeed.

I think Cal is getting screwed, but it’s their own fault. If they hadn’t flown cross-country to Maryland and landed half an hour before kickoff, they would’ve beaten the Terps and would be in the top fifteen (top ten?)

There seems to be a pretty strong trend in the SEC homers of looking at a team like USC and proclaiming that ONLY what happens this year should be relevant to rankings.

And then those same people turn to tOSU or the Big 10 and point to the last two championship games. One way or the other people.

1. You are 100% correct. Pitt is excluded from this list, but South Florida comes in at #17, ranked BEHIND Kansas.

1. They also are rarely seen wearing pants. Hey, this has probably been asked and answered, but why no more Subcommandante?

I’m confused. Why would anyone have to look at Ohio State’s track record to make the point that they got bent over by the only top-flight team they’ve played THIS year?

CAL is a huge mistake in this poll. Las Vegas Sports Consultants rank CAL 13th overall, CAL is a one loss team with a win over #14 here Michigan St. Does CAL being unranked make any sense to anyone at all?

While it’s true that tOSU can’t win against the SEC. The rest of the Big 11 hasn’t had that problem. In fact the Big 11 leads in all time head-to-head bowl games (91-86-6).

More importantly, The Big 10 and the SEC are tied at 9-9 over the past five years.

Congrats: it is an excellent ballot.

#25, the Subcommandante lost his library card, and thus his connection to the Internet. Then the Grand Am broke down, and he’s too broke to afford parts. Finally, he can’t even use the PC in the lobby of the Motel 6 because the place is booked solid with reporters in town to “get the pulse of the heartland” or some similar cliche.

It’s time to remind folks yet again, I see, that the SEC is Penn State’s bitch. Mostly. No problems on the national stage from our end. (Sorry, Tennessee!)
