People say the Pac 10 is weak but SC has to beat #6 Cal and #12 Oregon on the road. Even if they drop one of those they should be in the big enchilada (more likely OR because Cal is is in Nov.)

Go Trojans!!!!!

I had no idea he played for USC. Is he like an honorary member or something?

Where is KU?

That said.... KU sure as shit does not either.

Well, apparently, the AP and the coaches disagree with you. So piss off, whiney little Wildcat fan.

I don't see a single KSU fan whining on here about not getting votes. I don't necessarily think KU should be getting votes instead of other worthy teams who have actually played someone.

Some teams are in the early polls based off their last season performances, others are because of quality wins in 07. KU is neither.

The beef I have is with NU. That's ridiculous....last week they got hosed IMO because of losing to USC. I can only assume this equates to a makeup call.

I was calling him whiny because he was pissing and moaning about KU getting votes. It had nothing to do with whether the Kitties got any. Hey, KU may not have played teams that were any good, but they did do what good teams are supposed to do to bad teams. They pummeled every team they played. In years past, this team would not have done that. To further illustrate my point, compare their scores against other teams that have played these same opponents and then maybe you'll get an idea as to why the polls think KU may have a decent team.

Central Michigan lost to Purdue, but the score wasn't nearly as big a margin as KU's.

CMU @ Purdue 22-45 L = 23 point margin

CMU @ Kansas 7-52 L = 45 point margin

Toledo also played Purdue

Purdue @ Toledo 52-24 L = 28 point margin

Toledo @ Kansas 13-45 L = 32 point margin

As of now, that is the only thing that we can use to compare. I guess we'll truly know once the Big 12 season starts.
