Looks like Kirk Kenney accidentally swapped Florida/Florida St according to his twitter

That would make sense.

Well, that at least means they are not insane. He does have ND still at 6 though.

Imagine if a AP national championship was awarded off a mistake like that

Mike Niziolek has Texas ranked 9th and USC ranked 4th.
It'll all work itself out when the PAC-12 and B1G teams ranked that high have to play each other.

Yep, all just a beauty contest at this point. Relying on AP sportswriters to select by consensus who the best teams in the country are is only slightly less retarded than having some Grad Student vote in the name of their Head Coach in the other poll.

This isn't that bad though. USC's defense is awful and it's not crazy to think that any team w/a semi decent offense will be able to beat them.

Putting USC 4 is the issue here. Texas at 9 is fine. However, there is no way USC should be 4 if Texas is 9 considering what has happened on the field this year.

The AP poll always has some idiot pollsters out there.
Jim Kleinpeter was the all time crown king shitty balloter who was so bad they pulled his vote. Dave Preston's ballot is probably the worst one from this week if you assume the FSU/UF swap above. Dude really likes Tennessee, Maryland, & Syracuse.

Where can you see who votes for whom? I couldn't figure it out on Google.
