Here's the 2008 AP preseason Poll, I feel that these guys did a much better job than the coaches poll.
1. Georgia (22) 1,528 0-0 2. Ohio State (21) 1,506 0-0 3. USC (12) 1,490 0-0 4. Oklahoma (4) 1,444 0-0 5. Florida (6) 1,415 0-0 6. Missouri 1,266 0-0 7. LSU 1,135 0-0 8. West Virginia 1,116 0-0 9. Clemson 1,105 0-010. Auburn 968 0-011. Texas 966 0-012. Texas Tech 786 0-013. Wisconsin 771 0-014. Kansas 707 0-015. Arizona State 631 0-016. Brigham Young 590 0-017. Virginia Tech 578 0-018. Tennessee 509 0-019. South Florida 496 0-020. Illinois 483 0-021. Oregon 366 0-022. Penn State 293 0-023. Wake Forest 227 0-024. Alabama 89 0-025. Pittsburgh 85 0-0
Others Receiving Votes- South Carolina 84, Fresno State 83, California 59, Utah 53, Cincinnati 44, Florida State 41, Michigan 36, Boston College 32, Rutgers 32, Michigan State 21, Boise State 17, Arkansas 14, North Carolina 14, Connecticut 10, Tulsa 7, UCLA 6, Oregon State 5, Mississippi State 4, Virginia 4, Arizona 3, Nebraska 2, Notre Dame 2, Hawaii 1, Washington 1.
The only thing is that I think that based on what we've seen from Pitt, they're not a top 25 yet.
And now for the idea, I'm gonna post a weekly blog with updated records for every team that's in the AP poll to see how accurate this poll is. I'm not gonna change there rank, just update there record.
What do you guys think?

Nice idea, it will show how wrong these voters are, but really it's tough to predict in the preseason, but I see little difference from the Coaches poll in this one, aside from no Michigan and the addition of Wake, Alabama, and Pittsburgh, still better than the AP

I really like where LSU is listed. #7 in this one and #6 in the other. That's just high enough to take the lead around mid season and just low enough to stay off the radar of the top 5. Did anyone hear the latest news? yea, Brett Favre is coming to QB for the Tigers.
