I can see voters pulling their hair out trying to fill out that ballot
bama beat ark
ark beat lsu
lsu beat bama
all 11-1.
You're giving the voters too much credit. The Harris Poll is made up of the local media types we all gripe about as being idiots and washed up coaches or media types. The Coaches Poll is a bunch of GAs filling out a ballot. Certainly they should go back and look at body of work, but they won't. They're far too short-sided to put LSU ahead of Arkansas 36 hours after Arkansas would've beaten LSU in Baton Rouge.

lsu would still have the edge in the computer polls, so it would take the majority of voters in both polls to move lsu behind arkansas.
remember its not just where you were ranked but how many votes you get in each poll at each spot.
its way more complicated than you are making it to seem. also, the voters will recognize they are basically determining the likely national title competitors with that vote, since espn will DRILL that into out heads over the air waves.
