Pre Season Coaches Poll...LOL!

Illinois getting 7 votes is interesting. Don't get that one at all.
And Oregon at 5? I'm actually surprised ND isn't in top 5. Sad to say but they might have a hell of a year or just a hell year.
.
Yes. Rutgers is there, but there are typos. For example, in the poll, "R-U-T-G-E-R-S" is incorrectly spelled "O-H-I-O S-T-A-T-E."
Amazing how far Texas has fallen, in a handful of years.
Only 8 votes on the coaches poll. Guessing most are from the coaches in their conference.
Seems like TAMU really leapfrogged Texas in recruiting, when they bolted for the SEC. Plus other SEC teams may be much better able to poach Texas high school players who once seemed to be locks for UT.
Two serious questions.
1. Do you think the coaches actually cast the votes on this, or is someone else in the respective football offices in charge of voting?
2. And, this may be answered by your response to Q-1; does anyone think coaches give two poops about the polls?
Win, and you will rise to the top. I am guessing if a team started at #14 and had a surprise year going undefeated, the rise in the polls would take care of itself, and the July 30 poll would be like brown stuff on a white turkey.

No coaches don't vote and no they don't give a damn about the preseason rankings.

I totally agree with Smith. The Buckeyes have a few alum who do a very good job in Smith, Speilman and Herbie.
Yea I am with you i cant find Pitt I thought they would be a top 5 at least top 10?!?
Zero votes for Rutgers. Wonder who Flood voted for? Of course their board is focused on who did get votes. They can't imagine how a "Putrid team like Penn State" could get 20 votes and be just a bit outside the top 25.
