Week Six Blogpoll: First Draft Edition

by Jeremy Mauss on Oct 13, 2009 12:26 PM PDT in Blogpoll

The Blogpoll is set up by MGoBlog and is a collection of bloggers who actually watch the games, which is more then what the coaches, AP, or Harris poll voters can say. The poll is so respected that CBS Sports is behind the poll and it is posted along side the polls that actually count. Here is an explanation of the Blog poll from Brian himself.

A little shake up at the top with Alabama one, Florida two, and Texas three. This week was tough because of so many teams on bye weeks, and the bottom is a crap shoot. I dropped Auburn, feel Ole Miss and South Carolina are not much. Somehow Oklahoma sneaks in as the only two loss school, but I could really add Idaho or Notre Dame in that last spot.

Go ahead and be brutally honest and rip this poll apart with suggestions.

Personally I think Cincinnati is too high.

Their win over Oregon State is decent, but the rest of their wins are bad or horrible and I am not as impressed as everyone else. Maybe that’s just my anti-big east bias, but I’d put them at about 10.

Everyone hates a pink-shirt-wearing communist.

Looks good!

I think enough data is in that most polls are converging to a similar pattern.

Nothing in this ballot strikes me as out of line.

Oklahoma??

I am conflicted because they are the only two loss team. They have wins over Baylor, Idaho State, and Tulsa. Not any good teams there. Any suggestions on who to replace with Oklahoma, if any?
