Which is why I will always despise them. They are the perrenial "Don't Deserve Its". ND= Not Deserving.

Yeah Notre dame sucks.

Well Gentlemen.... first time we had a preseason ranking.. we are always higher in the media polls... so.. ahhhhh. lets enjoy the moment.

I think this is great!

I have to admit that I was prepared for worse, #25 or received votes. 

We never got much respect from this poll.  Hopefully it's a sign that the new mix of coaches are a bit more open minded and less agenga driven .  It's still the worse poll out there, but it is a big component of the BCS formula, so we have to live with it.

Good. Give him all of the reps with the first team offense and let them find out on August 20th that his request was denied again.  >

Something interesting here... Spurrier has a vote -- but Duke is not listed among those also receiving votes.  Spurrier has always voted for Duke in the preseason poll (when he had a vote) as a thank you for his first coaching job.

Although I am proud that USF has achieved it's first ever pre-season ranking. WOO HOO!

That surprised me as well... perhaps he's abandoned that tradition, or maybe it's a silent disregard/disrespect of Coach Cutcliffe?
