Anything jump out at you? It should have, dumbass. That's right, no votes for Duke. Where the hell is Duke? Spurrier ALWAYS throws a bone to the Dookies in the first poll but he didn't this year. Does he hate the regime change because Cutcliff is a better game coach? This is the most intriguing aspect to me because it is obscure and only true fans of the sport even know this.

Also, despite what some dumbasses say, these polls do matter. This is 1/3 of the BCS standings and starting out high is always a good idea so you don't have to wade through the crap that resides in the 15-25 range.

Other interesting points/predictions:

(1)The winner of the USC/OSU game is going to be #1 on September 14th.
(2) West Virginia is ranked pretty high for having a new coach and reports that they are going to rely on Pat White's arm more often this year.
(3) Clemson will rise up the rankings only to fail spectacularly against a poor team.
(4) Coaches apparently believe that Texas Tech will follow through with the promise for better defense.
(5) BYU and Utah should be reversed.
(6) Arizona State is way overrated. I don't care if they do beat UGA, they were fraud last year.
(7) Michigan is 24...really...stop laughing. Lets see...new coach...lost a ton of starters...new system...no players for the new system...yeah, sounds like a recipe for the 24th best football team.
(8) Notre Dame will finish the year in the Top 15, everyone will be blowing Charlie Weis, no one will mention the weak ass schedule, and I will want to light myself on fire because of it.
