 Blogpoll Week 11  Links10
Hurray, that's the poll hurray. If you're interested, you can see all the individual ballots here . It's neck and neck for number one, but not a tie. The average above is approximate; LSU does have a tiny lead with 1299 points to Oregon's 1295. How can Oregon be second with more first place votes than any other team? Four flatly indefensible votes from people placing Oregon outside of the top ... [link]

... Purdue and Indiana fight for the crown. The Hoosiers need another win to lock up a bowl berth, so I think they have more on the line this weekend against Purdue. So since I'd like to see the Hoosiers get to a bowl game, I'm going to pick them this week in hopes I can help out. Minnesota vs. #24 Wisconsin (-14) - Minnesota sucks. Notre Dame vs. Duke (+6) - Touchdown Jesus, kill me now. Last Week: 4-3 Overall: 57-43-2 Spreads are courtesy of Bodog , and Rankings are from the Blogpoll .

Top 25… Week 12
Published 11/16/2007 by UtesFan89 at Playing For Pride
EDIT!!!…Well, problems for the Ducks. An injury to starter Dennis Dixon has resulted in a 14 point lead for the Wildcats mid-way through the 3rd quarter. Brady Leaf has been as impressive as you would expect a Leaf to be. Well, week 12 is about to start under-way right now. So a semi-quick look at the top 25 teams… my style. Oregon (8-1)… While the overall Blogpoll might not agree, ...

Week Twelve BlogPoll Ballot Submitted

... Last week, not for the first time, nor even for the first time this year, my BlogPoll ballot drew a stern rebuke, necessitating that I defend my position in an enterprise I consider fundamentally American but, ultimately, not worth getting worked up over to that great an extent. It is in that spirit, with much appreciation to those who defended me in my independence of thought and judgment, that I prefaced this week's BlogPoll ballot with the foregoing lines from the poem After Reading a ...

Kansas?!?! : A Pre-Emptive Strike in Defense of My BlogPoll Ballot
Published 11/21/2007 by T Kyle King <info@dawgsports.com> at Dawg Sports: Front Page Posts
The new BlogPoll is scheduled to be released tomorrow and my ballot once again may draw the same stern rebuke to which I was subjected after last week's ballot, because I (with all due respect to my SB Nation colleague at Rock Chalk Talk) believe Kansas has demonstrated little by going undefeated against a woeful schedule. It appears I am in the minority among BlogPollsters upon this point, which seems strange to me, in light of the fact that, when LD meticulously debunked the Jayhawk myth, his analysis was met with the ...

... during rivalry week? This is far and away going to be Kansas' toughest game of the season so far, and since I have no idea how they're going to perform against a good team, I have to take Missouri and the points. Also, since it's a national broadcast on Saturday night (The entire country is getting this game), Chase Daniel is going to use the game as a showcase for his Heisman candidacy. Last Week: 5-2 Overall: 62-45-2 Spreads are courtesy of Bodog , and Rankings are from my Blogpoll ballot since this week's rankings haven't been released yet

I quite agree that, at the end of the day, it isn’t that big a deal, but I do my best to be conscientious and thorough when casting my ballot (even though I’m pretty sure I’m one of the "definite wackos" Brian has in mind, though this misperception of Brian’s is due partly to the fact that he, like ...
