Coaches do not put #USF in their top 25 poll. Bulls land at No. 27 with 117 votes. Anyone disagree?

Not with Oregon, Iowa, and South Carolina winning yesterday against Top 10 teams...

And other teams ahead of USF winning as well.

Not really, I wanted to be ranked but I'm not surprised we aren't.

Humm, have a little issue with BYU b/c they got killed by FSU, but I figured we would barley be top25 if we did crack it.

[twillybull]

Disgusting.

No way is Houston the #15 team in the nation.

No way is Houston the #15 team in the nation.

Houston is having a great season so far. The Cougars are just as much the No 15 team in the nation as USF was the No 2 team for a week in 2007. The Cougars have beaten two Big XII teams in their three games, including going on the road to beat a team ranked No 5 at the time.

I think they should be ranked higher at this point.

[metro0308]

This makes it clear that coaches should not have a vote... Cincy at 11? LSU who has looked less then stellar this year in the top 5? Ok only loss to the BYU who is #21 yet they are #8.

Polls make no sense to me.

Brett McMurphy put USF at #19...
