Re: Somebody please explain this to me

I agree but any poll at this point is, well, pointless. Nobody knows how anybody's team will play or how good they will or won't be. I hate pre-season polls. I think they are done on slow news days. Polls should only come out after several games, imo. After you actually see them play.

C'mon now, Rick. You don't think the Holy Trinity itself couldn't count for 5 votes.

Re: Somebody please explain this to me

The same way Ohio State gets 14 first place votes after getting waxed two straight years in the BCS National Championship.

The same way North Carolina gets 3 votes, I think maybe Roy Williams got a vote for that one.

Look at it this way, they got the same number of votes Kentucky and Texas Christian and neither of those will likely be sniffing the Top 25 either

Every week each head coach in the NCAA Division I-A's gets to fill out his own Top 25 and obviously atleast 5 coaches thought Notre Dame should be atleast 25th in their poll. Not saying I agree with it, but thats the way it must have been.

Nice to see the Ohio State hate continue. I know we back-doored our way into the game, but if everyone ahead of us had WON their games..........
