Here’s where the voters slotted Michigan this week. Note that Doug Lesmerises, the guy who had Michigan at #8 a couple weeks ago, dropped Michigan to #20 and a few folks dropped the Wolverines out all together. Can you blame them?

I think that's a pretty interesting feature, but I have to admit I only know who about 5 of those guys are …any chance we could get whatever paper/media service they work for next to their name ? I realize that could be an incredible pain in the ass, but if not it would be kind of interesting to see where some of these people are located. I guess if I really cared I could try googling their names.

who would vote them #14? to be honest I think Michigan and State will both finish out of the top 25 when it's all said and done. in fact, i think they'll both finish 6-6 based on their defenses. i wouldn't be surprised if there's over 1000 yards in total offense when they play against each other. in michigan's case, i think special teams is going to cost us a game, otherwise i would have said 7-5.

Earlier this year (in HTTV) I said 6-6 but assumed one of those losses would have happened by now. I don't know. I think we'll have to wait on these guys. I know Mouton can play better than he did Saturday.

whether it's alabama or michigan, i figure a defense will have to win a game or two for you during a season. yes, this defense will probably get a little better but i don't think it will ever get to the point where it can win us a game. hence my 6-6 prediction with fingers crossed. and even though a lot of people (including me) think rich rod needs at least 7 wins, i think denard will save the coach's job for at least another season.

Awesome, thanks very much.
That site it takes you to is pretty sweet, I now know John Niyo from the Detroit News gave Oklahoma the highest vote at # 3 that they have gotten, and Kirk Herbstreit has some serious Clemson love.
