Around SBN: Nevin Shapiro Vows To Bring Down Miami

Coaches Poll Shenanigans

UT got no #1 votes in the coaches poll (so Mack didn't put us #1).

OU got 2 #1 votes in the coaches poll, over undefeated Alabama and Florida who has an actual defense.

So which 2 of Stoops' evil minions below do you think did his bidding?:

Mike Leach, Texas Tech head coach

Stoops' first offensive coordinator now has Texas Tech in the top 15 and competing for a league title

Mark Mangino, Kansas head coach

Replaced Leach, now the Big 12's returning coach of the year after leading Jayhawks to Orange Bowl

Mike Stoops, Arizona head coach

Took over at Arizona in 2004 after coordinating dominant defenses in Norman

Chuck Long, San Diego State head coach

Largely responsible for Jason White's Heisman Trophy winning career

Kevin Sumlin, Houston head coach

Becomes first black head coach in major Texas college football history

Bo Pelini, Nebraska head coach

Boyhood pal of Stoops charged with resurrecting Husker program

Really shouldn't be Mangino

We handled the Jayhawks a lot better than OU did.

Would venture to guess that Leach is one

He voted OU last week, and we know he dislikes Texas. Or at least thinks we get all the calls.

Dunno about who the second one might be. What I’d really like to know is whether the coaches who voted OU #1 also voted Texas #2. If so, no big deal. If not? That really stings.

somebody..

already responded to this when you mentioned it in another post.

IIRC, they said Pelini, Leach and Mangino are the only ones that vote, so you’re barking up the wrong tree.

Last week...

Both Leach and Colorado’s coach stated that they had OU number 1. I’m guessing those are the two that still have OU number 1
