I hate voters.

I can see how you would as a Wisco fan.

Wisco's only loss was to Michigan, and USC had two losses to unranked (at the time) teams.

Wisco should be ahead of USC, IMO, weak schedule or not.

Wisc should have taken Notre Dame's spot in the BCS too, but we all know the rules suck.

Im not mad because of where UW is ranked, Im mad because they moved down in the AP poll and were jumped by two teams. When you win, you shouldnt move down. It may not have been the prettiest victory, but what else can you do but win? hold a team to its season low in points? shut down a feared running attack aside from two plays? I just think they shouldnt have been leapfrogged.

I feel a little better now, SI's 2007 preseason top 10:

The coaches put a 9-4 Tennessee team ahead of a 9-4 Penn State team, even though Penn State beat Tennessee in the Outback Bowl. This system is a freaking joke.

A4 but NO FUCKING WAY should they be ranked lower than Cheesepuffs. Abject bullshit. Those fucking posers played NO ONE with a pulse BUT U-M the whole fucking year. THE U of Buffalo in November?? They are an embarrassment. Meeeechigan would wax their sorry asses 101 out of 100 times if the played again.

I have long admired the programs Cheezitz has put together in Football & Hoops. Remarbale since everyone is in love, in a 5-state area, with OSU, and U of Mum. Sorry, this is just WRONG! Sweet Creeping Jesus did anyone here see Stocco go 14-34 and that little tub o' goo RB get about 6 yards (after he ran rough shod over the Tiny 10 for 1500) against a 4 loss Arkansas, one dimensional squad?

This is just wrong!
