Our specialists got no respect at all. Got to earn it. Hope someone gets a chance to tackle Brad Wing.
Sweet fancy Moses!

Having Ryan Swope over TJ Moe is silly to say the least. Mark my words at the end of the season TJ Moe will be ahead of Swope and most likely a 1st team'er.

LOL at Ole Miss getting a first place vote. They will be competing with Kentucky for the worst team in the league.

I think Ole Miss got a first-place vote last year as well. I'm sure it's the same guy.

It's sad the way some of the "media" votes. The barn got 4 first place votes? Even the most rabidly optimistic fan is hoping for 9-10 wins (with 6-7 being the odds-makers bet). No realistic person thinks they can win the west this year. Ole Miss? Ha.
And how is Brad Wing not be a Unanimous selection at punter? Or Barrett Jones at OL (defending All-American and Rimmington winner) I could go on and on.
In short, it's sad to be the media become homers instead of looking at things realistically.

This is a strange stat...
...the media has only accurately picked the champion correctly only four times, and just twice since 1996 (LSU 2007, Florida 2008).
