Doc should offer Urban Meyer a 1st place vote for his vote. Urban will need all the 1st place votes he can get to hold off Auburn.
Coaches don't really vote in the coaches poll from what I've heard. Do you really think they have the time and really know anything about any other teams outside of who the have played?
Mike Bartrum has to throw us a vote here. Not like it is unjustified after the beat down of ecu. Also, Jeff Blake and another former player at ECU can give us some love. Also a ECU beat writer on that poll.Can not find the coaches in the coaches poll. Anyone have that info? A vote there does it as well. It hurts if it comes down to computers when we lose to damn Ohio and also 4 of our wins against opponents that are 5-44. Lets go Bartrum! Its OK to throw a homer vote out there this week
They do vote. There is a committee that changes every year. They have to submit a ballot. Used to be a website somewhere tht you could even see who voted for who but I lost that link somewhere. And coaches know football and other teams. Probably the most credible poll out there really.
Bartrum is no longer on the list (nor is Blake).The current list is here: http://www.harrisinteractive.com/vault/HI-News-Release-HICFP-Panelists-100313_final.pdfFormer MU AD's David Braine and Bob Marcum are on the list.
Not unless they pretty damned good and garners his attention. He is only voting for his top 25 teams.
