Well, at least the Harris Poll has got it togeth...oh, what's that?



Ahh, early-season polls, it's the smell of stupidity. And not just from the AP and crazy Doug Lesmerises of the Cleveland Plain Dealer. As an OSU fan, I think Doug does a fine job as the PD's beat guy. But man, this vote is caaaaraazzzeeeee.


Computer dork Jeff Sagarin fired up the Commodore 64 and came up with this gem. Now, i guess the BCS only uses the ELO-CHESS version which is totally confusing.

But my winner of this week is the season's first edition from the 141 voters in the Harris poll, who were apparently all together having a substantial kegger when they filled out their votes which include:

- Penn State coming in at #12, which doesn't seem so bad except that Iowa is ranked #14. And the Hawkeyes just won - in Happy Valley - Saturday night. But hey, the Nits have the White Out thing. I guess that's worth two spots.

- Cal at #21 and Oregon at #23. Which would be great except the Ducks just beat the Bears - BY 39 POINTS.

Let's not only watch the game people, let's stick around and check out the final score.
