You forgot Pollin’

Pollspeak has a cool feature called Pollstalker that allows you see how the voters ranked your favorite team in the AP Poll.

So I was naturally curious to see who likes Texas more than others. Or more accurately, who doesn’t like Texas enough.

Three dudes had Texas ranked seventh: Matt McCoy of WTVN-AM Radio (OH), Maurice Patton of The Tennessean and Tom Keegan of the Lawrence Journal World.

Good answer. Good answer. I like the way you think. I’m gonna be watching you.

Conversely, John Wilner of the San Jose Mercury News had Texas ranked twenty first.


“You just made the list, buddy.”
