Dear All . . . I know you've been anxiously waiting . . . well it should be worth it! UT is up four spots to #8 this week after going 3 out of 4. Sounds like a broken record when I say the humans love us way more than the computer ranking systems! In late breaking news (yes the last poll I entered caused this) we ended up with a tie at the top between Vandy and Virginia . . . fair to say that the computers and the humans love them! I'm giving you the top 24 this week as Okie State and Rice round it out . . . and I know you want to see how all these teams are treated by the computers and the human polls. A&M is still doing quite well . . . just above us at #7 and OU has learned just how suckie they are by tumbling down to #15 . . . that's gotta smart! For those who have not read this brilliant poll before, the last two columns show computer generate rankings. I thank Boyd Nation and Kenmneth Massey for their excellent work. How I rank the teams based on that info is shown below the main poll. Enjoy!
