Archie has gone up from 21.7% (3rd) to 26.3% (2nd) while I have been voting.

For those of you who mentioned it works if you vote more than once, you are right--and even better, you can just keep tapping "submit answers" repeatedly. You don't have to wait for the results page to load.

I got the idea from the warnings when you buy something online that hitting "submit" more than once will put in multiple orders. In this case, it works in our advantage. Is it borderline pathetic of me? Maybe, but I'll be damned to see Tommie Frazier ahead of Archie, and Joe Paterno ahead of Woody. And no, I don't have anything better to do.

Well it looks like Archie is #2 now just behind ol' Tommie by 2.4% Nebraska people may have the internet but they apparently also have an early bedtime keep on voting and maybe Archie takes it by the end of the night!

Woody for some reason is down at 6th...

Last night the combined forces of Bucknuts, Buckheads, the OSU Scout site, and (especially) Buckeye Planet put aside their difference for the greater good and pushed both Archie and Woody to #1. I'm proud of you all.

Since then the Nebraska troops have been fighting back. Tom Osborne has again surpassed Woody (as has Bear Bryant) and Tommie Frazier and Johnny Rodgers are again challenging Archie.

If you have a some free time today, take a moment to give our guys a couple hundred votes.

Some other things to keep in mind while voting for Archie & Woody:
* Barry Sanders is within striking distance of passing Rodgers. I wouldn't mind seeing the Husker fall.
* Jim Thorpe really should be in the top four.
* A vote for Army's great Glenn Davis would help keep the traitor Charles Woodson in the bottom.
* Walter Camp literally invented American football. That feat deserves consideration when naming the "faces" of the game.

I just figured out that once you vote and get to the results page you can just click to reload the page and it casts your vote again. I've increased Woody and Archie by about .3% each with just a few minutes of constantly clicking reload and space bar (to accept the little POSTDATA warning). I know it's a little retarded but I'm bored and can't stand seeing our boys in 3rd.

Archie just got within striking distance of Frazier (both 34.3%), and then suddenly Frazier & Rodgers numbers started soaring again. Rodgers will pass Archie again in a few minutes unless Buckeyes take action.

34.6% Tommie Frazier
34.3% Archie Griffin
30.7% Johnny Rodgers
11.6% Jim Thorpe
11.3% Barry Sanders
10.8% Herschel Walker
