How can a team go 1-1 against FBS, beating a Pac-12 school, and not be in the Top 25?
Pure rubbish of a poll.

Who in their right mind is voting for Tenn Tech?

Ohio Valley Conference: Neal Bradley; John Brush; Michael Clark; Wallace Dooley; Jeff Honza; James Horne; Brad Kirtley; Travis Kriens; Joe Lofaro; Rich Moser: Brian Nielsen: Karl Park: Mike Parris: Rob Schabert: Kyle Schwartz: Greg Seitz.

One of these guys must write for the Herald Citizen.

This is exactly why I think the TSN poll sucks. NO accountability.

No wonder why. The NEC only has 9 voters, one of which is Albany's beat writer who actually does some homework and doesn't think Albany is a Top 25 team.

1. Because you got steam rolled by NMSU, who isn't that good.
2. Colorado is VERY weak.
3. Sac State had 4 wins last year, and doesn't return many starters.

The Colorado win put them on the cusp, but it will take some "prove it" wins to keep moving up. Kind of like last year. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice... shame on me.

Well, they are the reigning OVC champion and return 16 starters, plus they added a big weapon at WR in Da'Rick Rogers. I don't think Tenn. Tech is as far off in the Top 25 as some of the other teams in there.

Valid points.

Exhibit A why I don't vote. Can't keep up with everything anymore.
