Jon Wilner of the San Jose Mercury News does a good job in digging up news and reporting, but is not perceived by some as a good AP voter. Nonetheless, he posted his AP ballot online and Wilner says his ballot is how he envisions the season ending. This means that Wilner believes the BCS title will be between Alabama and Boise State.
Here is his ballot:
1. Alabama
2. Boise State
3. Oklahoma
4. Texas A&M
5. Oregon
6. Nebraska
7. West Virginia
8. LSU
9. Stanford
10. Florida State
11. Mississippi State
12. South Carolina
13. Notre Dame
14. Michigan State
15. Brigham Young
16. Oklahoma State
17. USC
18. Georgia
19. Air Force
20. Wisconsin
21. Arizona State
22. Texas
23. Ohio State
24. Virginia Tech
25. Hawaii
Here are other teams that Wilner has considered.
Texas Christian, Missouri, Penn State, Arkansas, Auburn, Illinois, Miami, Northwestern, Syracuse, Houston, Tulsa, Washington and Florida.
I was surprised to see TCU not being ranked as well as seeing Air Force at No. 19, that means he feels that Air Force will finish second in the Mountain West and defeat TCU.
The AP poll is to be announced on Saturday, Aug. 20.
