Some interesting notables:
*Miles was the only coach to vote Ohio St in the top 5.
*Miles voted Cincinnati at #8, (lowest rank by a coach)
*Dan Mullen voted LSU the highest at #9.
*Neil Callaway(UAB) voted LSU the lowest at #17(spurrier had us at #16
)
*Troy Calhoun (Air Force) voted Florida #2
*Pelini had Texas at #1
*Jeff Tedford ranked USC #22 and Stanford #25(stanford beat usc 55-21)
And last BUT definatley not least...
Mr. Charlie Weatherbie the commander and chief of the mighy ULM Warhawks has TCU @ 2,
Cincy @ 3, Northwestern at 16(i dont think any other coach even had them ranked), TROY @ 25, and where did the esteemed Mr. Weatherbie have LSU?
Barring a huge hiccup by USA today, LSU was nowhere to be found on his ballot!![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

Steve is still upset that he was passed over?
quote:
Troy Calhoun (Air Force) voted Florida #2
Too high. UF had their share of close calls and they got beat down last Sat.

Pelini had Texas at #1
Don't blame him. Conference loyalty. May need Mack to return the favor sometime.

Mad because we played every Division I school in Louisiana except his.

Good reasons why coaches poll should not count!

not any more.
the assistant ad is usually the one who does the voting for the coaches polls because the coaches have more important things to worry about.

Since the Sports Info Directors fill out the ballots and not the coaches, let me do a "fixed it for ya" real quick...
*Michael Bonnette was the only SID to vote Ohio St in the top 5.
*Bonnette voted Cincinnati at #8, (lowest rank by an SID)

Maybe just maybe Kelly should've kept his mouth shut about Les being on the hot seat

Coaches are terrible at ranking teams and should not be allowed to do it. Often they rank teams on "how they played against us", instead of W/L records....giving a skewed view of things because if a team didn't play Tedford for instance, they might be a good team but he would rank a team he beat but that played well against him over a team he has no knowledge of.
