They really need to remove anyone who voted Alabama above OKST. Especially those who put OKST 4th to try to score points for Alabama.

Love Chris Pederson's quote about this lol
I can't find it though..about how he voted to help his own team, so how is that still the system they use?

Art Briles apparently hates the B1G too. #11 Michigan, #16 Wisconsin (low rater), #21 MSU (low rater), #22 Nebraska (low rater). No Penn State, instead, ranked Arkansas State.

The fact that Saban, Peterson, and Gundy were all interested parties and were still able to vote, tells you everything you need to know about the system. Look at some of those rankings, it's obvious that some were "gaming" the system.

SO, Saban got to vote for his team, but Gundy doesn't even have a vote? System is more fucked up than I thought.Skyhook79;1004293 wrote:Gundy didn't have a vote.

I thought the coaches voting in the coaches poll changed from week to week.
