    I'm not sure but I think that this is an online, open to the public type of poll. The good news is that the voters actually know who they are voting for which puts them one step ahead of Jim Tressel.

    It has to be some kind of joke, not because of where ND is ranked but because of the obvious mis-rankings of PSU and Texas after last weekend. I don't care much about early-season polls, but this one stands out as ludicrous.

    I think that is last year's poll or something. A preseason poll at best.
