Apparently, to him it shows a team's strength to blow out weak teams rather than just convincingly-beat good or even ranked teams.

He replies to emails pretty quickly, also. I think his logic is completely wrong, but at least he was the lone voter putting LSU at #4.

This is true, but it's voters like him that keep teams like Boise St. in the top 5 every year.

I want you to email him back and tell him to think a lil harder about his rankings. Im assuming he would give the Bama/LSU winner a bump if we are both undefeated. But how high would he bump LSU?

Wisconsin could blow everyone out cus of who they play, but if we struggle against a uf or bama will we get penalized? They dont play anyone near the caliber of those teams. I don tthink they even play one ranked team this year. I doubt illinois will still be undefeated by the second to last week.

They play nebraska. They will play one ranked team this year. fricking pathetic.

Im going to wait to email him after the next voting poll is out. See how large of a margin we beat Kentucky by. According to his logic, beating shitty teams at home games bumps a team up higher than being on the road.
