 College Football
It’s back to the future for college football. While the rest of the world continues to at least attempt to advance, the 61 coaches who make up the AFCA/USA Today Coaches Poll have thumbed their nose at that idea, voting instead last week to keep their final ballots secret from public viewing. The whole process seemed fishy when we got a chance...
What's the buzz about?

I see both points. I guess to me it depends on if you could get a truthful response to the question "Do the teams that appear on your schedule every year have any impact on how you vote" as to whether it's a great idea or not.

The only problem I see is that coaches routinely admit that they know little about any team other than the one on the schedule that week...so are they really the best group to be deciding nation wide who might be best?
