First, I hate the polls. Without a playoff they have too much influence, and to say they are woefully erratic and suspect is to suggest Paris Hilton could use an acting class, or two.

In fact, going forward I will no longer call it the Coaches Poll, which is a joke. For me, it is now the Asst. SID's Poll

Soapbox dutifully put aside, there are a few directions to go with overrated. Hey Stanford, LSU’s schedule includes #9 Oregon, #19 WVU, #18 Florida, #23 Auburn – pause to digest…continue – #3 Alabama, #12 Arkansas, and then, if they’re still standing, they're likely rewarded with another Top 15 match-up in Atlanta.

Not to mention Miss. St. was #25 when the Tigers beat them senseless in Starkvegas, a game from which the Bulldogs offensive line was so battered it has still yet to recover.

Stanford plays…wait for it…Oregon. At the Farm.

That’s why folks are laughing. CFN

I understand hating the polls and preferring to rank via accomplishments

but why do you use the polls to assess said accomplishment? Seems counter-intuitive.

So you hate polls. Except when you agree with them.

Stanford would give LSU a game they may not want.

I actually love the polls it's just another fun arguing point and gets you more pumped up for a game seeing a higher ranked team.

An experienced QB can take a team A LONG way. WISKY IS GOING to the NC game IF the QB doesn't get hurt.

Stanford may not lose BUT will be left out if a SEC goes unbeaten.
