    Stupid me. I thought you needed it last Monday.

    In your first attempt, you're still ahead of BYH's performance over the last three years combined.

    Another shout out to Slappy: Thanks for your efforts the last 3 years. Your weekly poll story was the thing I most anticipated every Monday.

    Good luck, Coco, and thanks.

    Boise State will be my preseason No. 2, and, after the Broncos beat the Hokies, my pick to win the BCS title game.

    Oh, I might send a memo during the season to help him out, in the same way the owner of this place "helped" me...

    Coco might want the week off from writing... it's a bear. I wish I had time to actually spend writing these each week. Once in a while, I'd work on it for a couple days before. Most of the time, it was thrown together on Monday afternoon.

    Coco, I'll get you my poll no later then Sunday afternoon. It's done, but I'm going to go over it again to make sure I didn't put Eastern Michigan too high.

    That's a good idea because the poll is only open to Division I programs

    Slappy, I guess that's why I left Western Michigan out too.


    Coco, you should have my poll.

    Dear would-be voters,
    Coco's a nice guy; I'm a prick.
    Send him your freakin ballot for the preseason poll on time; otherwise, if you aren't in the preseason poll, you aren't in for the season.
    Love,
    Slappy.

    Ditto. This has always been an enjoyable part of football season. No pressure Coco.

    I'm in, thanks to Coco for dropping me a line and telling me I'm in. Excited to be back.

    Votes are rolling in ... thanks to everyone for helping a math-challenged, first-time poll counter by getting the preseason picks in early (by and large).

    Just waiting on four voters right now; check your PMs, and please have the ballots in by noon CDT tomorrow.

    Poll results and story should be posted -- in a new thread -- midday.
