This guy is obviously a moron. We played NC St. away last year, we play scUM every other year away, we play Texas away next year, we play at Penn St. this year. Their away games include tOSU, Wisconsin and Purdue. Which I will give them credit is tough, but I don't think that we are to blame for what games we get at home. Look at Purdue, they don't play tOSU or scUM. Go talk [censored] with them. I'll say it right now Iowa loses at least 2 games this season. You heard it hear first.

Joe Giglio of the News & Observer of Raleigh, N.C., voted Louisville No. 1 after examining the schedules for all BCS conference teams. The Cardinals moved to the Big East this season.

This is the problem with preseason polls. Rather than voting for who they think is the best team, folks vote for who they think has the easiest schedule. Voting should not be a prediction of what you think will happen, but an estimate of each teams' relative ability.
Voting for the teams with the easy schedules becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, and incorrectly rewards teams that avoid tough opponents.
They seriously need to publish instructions on how to vote in the preseason, and then how to vote in the regular season (based only on what happened on the field during the season-to-date once some games have been played).
