    Every ballot must be public.

    Again. He voted them fourth. Not fourteenth. Fourth. Hell, Chizik voted them fifth.

    Rage against Saban for other things. Non-issue.

    Conference wide collusion?

    Mark Richt and Les Miles both had the Pokes at 3. So, no.

    Yeah, I don't doubt he did it intentionally, but I agree that it's a long way from being a big deal.

    Voters are selected on a blind draw before the start of each season. I would assume that there may be a few that are picked that decline the invitation but the voting board theoretically could be completely different from year to year.

    I want to know how many of the coaches on that list actually filled out or even approved the ballot.

    I know one coach who gave the SID grief for ranking their team too low.

    One also won its conference convincingly. One did not.

    One also beat three teams ranked in the top 20 of the latest AP poll. One only beat one team that was ranked in the top 20.

    We'll find out the answer soon enough in the Fiesta Bowl.
