But it is the only poll the media has to call it's own. If you think the media is going to play up a competing poll, you're as stupid as I am.

if the poll has nothing to do with the "college football rankings"

Why don't you love me? I play for USC and I'm a five-star recruit and I play quarterback but also punt the ball pretty well. Pete Carroll named me the service teams player of the year for my efforts during my transfer season between Arkansas and USC and I love my momma. She always looks out for me and my football career. Why can't you, college football world, love me like my momma does?!

I think it's funny how the Associated Press made themselves irrelevant. They thought at the time they were being cool by distancing themselves from the BCS.

Basically what schools do is use the ranking that lists them higher. For example, is OU 18 or is OU 20? We are ranked 18th, but of course.

It is still a widely recognized the poll, that AP poll. It just is irrelevant in the national championship game determination crap... which will also soon be irrelevant if they are the cause of more whining this postseason.

I usually go by the AP pole until the BCS rankings come out. Should I rethink this logic (or lack there of)? ;)

Actually, the BCS poll also helps determine who else goes to the other BCS bowls (which is huge) and also determines who goes to the big 12 championship game in the event of a 3 way tie (see last year). It is the system we have in place at the moment, and so therefore, the only relevant poll other than the polls factored into it...

And I hope your not holding your breath on any major changes to the BCS anytime soon....

The ESPN BCS "expert" said yesterday that *if* the BCS were published right now, that the horns would probably be #5 due to the computers and SOS. 'Bama would be #1 with the gators #2, but so close it could go either way. Hopefully, the horns SOS goes way up but their ranking goes down next week :D

I look to the various BCS 'experts' and 'gurus' before the BCS is officially out now. AP really is irrelevant unless you happen to be a school that wins the AP poll at the end of the year without playing in the championship game... cough, USC, cough. Then you get to claim a national title you didn't earn... cough, USC, cough. Other than that, it's just for media propaganda.

AP Poll is more for people to outwardly protest the BCS computers and the other polls. More of a "what does the media think" as opposed to the "system"

Before Texas whines too much about that projection, there are nine undefeated teams left in the Bowl Subdivision (Div. I-A). They are ahead of half of them in this projection. At least they aren't listed 9 of 9.

I don't know...ask LSU if the AP poll matters; everyone claims they only won a split national championship in 2003.

back then the AP was part of the BCS system tho.... at least USC has somewhat of an arugment

now the AP poll has nothing to do with the BCS.
