Honestly, I think it's because it's URBAN FRICKIN' MEYER that Michigan is moaning.  Anyone else and they would be indifferent about the whole thing.  Ramzy's pretty much hammered home that this waiver is pretty common, but I'm excited to see who else gets added here (Withers, Stoops, or whomever).  At least it gives me some other bowls to take an interest in, such as Iowa State/Rutgers in the Pinstripe Bowl (who'd have thought) or Mizzou/UNC in the Indepence Bowl.  Sorry if anyone has posted this link, I haven't been able to frequent 11W due to exams lately.  3 More Words...

I've been curious as to how volatile (or not) the Poll Voters actually are as a group.  So I decided I was going to make a spreadsheet to track it and show the progress of the Buckeyes.  Right now I just wanted a quick resource to track changes so, I'm just showing who won or lost and their change in votes from week to week. I'm not planning on putting too much analysis into it, but if anyone has ideas or information they're curious about I'll try and include it.  I'll give a few thoughts on what's happened in the past week.

AP Rankings Week 2

The first item that jumped out at me were that quite a few pollsters decided to switch their allegiance from Bama to LSU.  Kind of refreshing development to see especially at the top.  However, I do expect more corrections at the beginning of the season than the end.

The other big takeaway was the annual emptying of the Notre Dame Preseason Bandwagon into the Notre Dame Lover Hath Scorned Pollster Brigade.

Let me know what you think and I'll give another update next week.
