Northern coaches bias.

 

[yeodonie]

Beating the Citadel carries a lot of weight

 

[fredmccallyRTR]

Looks about right to me. Most interesting to me was tOSU ranked a spot above VT.

 

[outofyourmind]

Edged Oregon out of 3rd by 1pt

Mysteriously absent from the 25:
Mississippi St
Kentucky
Tennessee

hrm...

 

[fredmccallyRTR]

A&M made a nice jump, their problem is they won't play a good team for another month. So, I'll assume they've stalled for now. But with 5 SEC teams in the top 10 cannibalization is inevitable.

 

[dennis580]

Fact 1

Virginia Tech 2-0
Ohio St 1-1

Fact 2

Virginia Tech beat Ohio St by 2 TDs on the road last night

Fact 3.

Coaches Poll

#18. Ohio St 1-1
#19. Virginia Tech 2-0

Fact 4

Coaches Poll will not play a part in deciding the National Championship this year.

 

[ckhokie]

Have to trust the Coaches. They actually want the playoff committee to use there poll to help them.

Yep. If winning by 14 on the road, at night, in front of the biggest crowd in school history doesn't scream fluke, I don't know what does

 

[WizardHawk]

Another example of how lame polls are. VT below Ohio State is outrageous. Not only beat them, but on their own turf and still aren't better than them in the rankings.

Gotta be the B1G bias

Of course I was joking see my post above.

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

I'd like to hear the reasoning/logic behind that OSU/ VT ranking. That's freaking ridiculous.

 

[fredmccallyRTR]

My guess is a lot of the coaches voting just knew VT had won and didn't understand they dictated most of the game and didn't win on some freak play or the like.
