Final Pre-season Blog Poll is now on the air!

Always a happy day!! Blog Poll is back.

Here's a couple things.

First, I have OSU 10 places higher than the poll at large. I think Meyer turns the team around fast and surprises this year. I also hate Wisconsin apparently...maybe I overdid this one, but it just seemed like a lot of Big 10 love that never seems to pan out and they are replacing their QB with another new guy. I also liked WVU a little less than most people (3 spots) and Virginia Tech a lot less (-7), in both cases because they play in soft conferences that rarely end up in top rankings.  (Update:  So this will take a while to get used to.  WVU is in a good conference now.)

And, I joined 4 other voters (including Bull Run) in putting Ohio U in the top 25. They have the potential to be a very good team this year.
