Okay, who voted for Notre Dame?
Does a priest post on Buckeye Planet?

I thank the poll is pretty accurate. Well, at least it is very close to some of the other polls that are out and we probably watch more games than most of the people doing the voting. Hard to tell if we are giving BYU too much credit. I guess only time will tell.

Just out of curiosity, why would someone have Tennessee ranked in the preseason?
Tennessee has one of the best RBs is the SEC and while they do not have lot of returning starters they do have depth especially on offense. I guess why would someone rank Clemson and VT in the preseason along with some other teams. It is strictly a crap shoot at this point in the season.

Oh, I forgot about the speed factor:biggrin:
