are influenced by ESPN and their arguments

i think this is overblown somewhat

we can bring back another reference to 2007, where ESPN was pushing for non-LSU teams pretty hard, esp UGA

in 2006 the ESPN darlings at the end were OSU and UM, and UF got in, instead

i won't say that OU has a huge media advantage over UT (for 2008)

2009 was easy

2010 was easy

in 2012 bama was SOLIDLY #2 once OSU lost, before "the machine" took over. bama lost votes b/w weeks 14 and 15, also
