Your feelings of Saban's ballot

Obviously we all know how he voted by now.
But was this a prick move or just you have to do what you have to do for your team.
As much as I wanna say what a prick he was, If I were him, I gotta do what ever to get my team in.

I expected nothing less from the prick master.

100% prick move. It's completely unsportsmanlike to intentionally manipulate a ballot. Whatever happened to being a gentleman and setting an example?

Voting his team second accomplishes that. Voting OK St fourth implies fear that other coaches would feel his team was not #2, and therefore he needed to drop OSU lower than their earned ranking to "fix" the poll.
It's chickenshit, but it is what it is.

if you mean being dishonest, that stuff stays with you and your team and if you believe in karma, or what goes around comes around as I do, he and his team will get theirs, one way or another.

my only question is this....was he honest? he went on and on all week about voters being honest about who is #2, was that an honest vote by him? i doubt it.

If he had Stanford over OSU on his previous ballot then this is much ado about nothing.

Oh, he's a prick alright...but...how much does his one vote really affect the overall point totals?
Just curious.

I love how the possibiltity that he thought Stanford is better isn't even an option in your mind

He moved OSU up one spot for winning and because VT lost. They were behind Stanford the week before. I have no problem with it.
If OSU was 3 the week before, and then he moved them to 4, it would be a prick move. No problem with it at all.

The difference between OSU and Bama is so small a few votes intentionally dishonestly made do matter.

1 point. They get 22 points for a #4 vote, and 23 points for a #3 vote.

great point

About the same as Stoops ballot. OSU blasts your a##, wins your conference, from your state and you don't vote them number 2? Talk about a prick!

Saban probably gets a nice bonus for getting his team into the NC....might be a reason he was "woikin it" so hard.

The media should publicly humiliate Saban for his unjust voting. Saban is a man without honor whose word means nothing. He demands perfection from others because inside he knows how little and worthless he is. He is the one of whom Jesus spoke when he said, "Why do you look at the speck of dust in your neighbor's eye? You have a plank in your eye." Saban is a hater of the Gospel, and his refusal to submit to the will of God will bring great condemnation on him and those who follow him.
