Earle's right, and Stoops definitely has a point. The BCS had Mizzou #1 and they only lost to one team this season, and that was to OU. With a healthy English and perhaps Murray, OU has just as many weapons on both sides of the ball and plus a much better coach on the sidelines than LSU.

Boise St. didn't get any 1st place votes last year and they had a much more impressive resume.

They may have had a more impressive resume than Hawaii has, but they didn't have a more impressive resume than Ohio State did at this point last year. The 2006 Boise State resume was never up against Hawaii's 2007.

However, I think that Boise State deserved more first place votes after the bowl games. I don't know if that's what you're talking about. If they didn't get any, then, in my opinion, they should have gotten more.

True, but BSU was the only other undefeated 1A team and they had a stronger regular season schedule than this year's Hawaii team. I'm just saying an undefeated 1A team not getting much respect isn't unprecedented.

We should be getting pretty close to catching up to Notre Dame and Oklahoma's 95 total weeks, most all-time, as #1 in the AP poll...

Ohio State won't be able to catch them this year. There's only the final poll, after the January 7th title game, remaining.

Most appearances as AP #1, all-time (poll started in 1936)
95 - Notre Dame
95 - Oklahoma
93 - Ohio State (as of 12/2 poll)
86 - USC
70 - Nebraska
68 - Miami (FL)
59 - Florida State
42 - Texas
34 - Michigan
31 - Alabama

I'll settle for being only one behind ND and OU on January 8th...

Tressel makes sure to vote in final coaches poll this season

After receiving criticism for abstaining from the last coaches poll a season ago, Tressel makes his choice this year.

By Kyle Nagel
Staff Writer

Tuesday, December 04, 2007
One of the first questions reporters were anxious to ask Jim Tressel concerned his vote in the ESPN/USA Today coaches poll.
Tressel, the Ohio State football coach, declined to vote for the final rankings last season after the Buckeyes already had clinched a spot in the national championship game, a decision that drew wide criticism.
