It’s a week late, but there haven’t been any games played, so does it really matter? Our voters have the same top two as the BCS, just in different order. If they used our rankings instead of the BCS, then Georgia would probably play Arizona State instead of Hawaii.

 And someone a few weeks ago was bragging about picking West Virginia #1 in the preseason. Who was that? I’ll look at our preseason poll later to see how we did. Here’s the individual ballots.
