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.
