    Iowa went from 25 to not even receiving votes. Ouch.

        Probably 19th for coaches?

        Victory for U-N-I!

        Find out what the other team wants to do, then take it away from them.

              we all know Iowa should not have been ranked or even considered. ISUr could beat them after all

                  Apparently we are a tough sell for Doug Haller of AZ Republic. We have capped out at 25 with him. Apparently the Stanford SDI has pictures of Haller, LakeBison and a goat. 16 in his poll.

                    Its interesting to see points of view of everyone around the U.S. who votes. I'd guess a lot of it comes down to really not watching a team play or if you watch them play once and how they did has a factor in your decision making the entire year. I watch a ton of college basketball and there's quite a few top 25 teams I havn't seen play this year, but for some reason in my own head I have an opinion of them, which I shouldn't.

                      Tom Keegan from the Lawrence, KS newspaper dropped us from 20 to 25.

                          Didn't see the games last week, just saw scores and didn't think UNI won by enough.

                            Heard some interesting and *somewhat* related comments last week about the football beat writers who do sit in the press box to cover Viking games up here on KFAN radio (the sports station that carries the Vikings' games on the radio).

                            Both the guy who made the initial comment (and works the post game - not a game reporter but in the press box) and the newspaper sports writer who does cover the Vikings talked about how very few of those in the press box really watch the game from that vantage point. Rather, most have their eyes down -noticeably even during plays - tweeting, reading/watching and retweeting the game stats and highlights.

                            I wonder if there is much truth to that in sports reporting. If that is the case, seems kind of hard for any real analysis.
