In the AP poll, the highest ranked teams with 0,2,3,4 losses are all SEC teams.  Ohio State edged Alabama for the 1 loss spot, but not in the coaches poll.

It remains kind of funny to me that this whole sport was structured around sports writer and coach lucky voting forever. Like, that would never fly these days.

well, the coaches poll started in 1950, the AP of course was 1936.  Decades of football before they were originated.

the committee is the same thing, simply just a different and smaller group of folks voting

nothing has changed, except the computer polls influence has come and gone

I've seen this in a museum near Paris, that company is now a large enterprise called Saffron Group.  It's a neat approach.  By spinning the cylinders you get cooling inherent to the design.  The "V" engines require water cooling which adds weight and complexity to aircraft.

Well to be fair that jobber got all in his feelings about it. Should have knee capped Lebron on a rebound and not gotten all dramatic.
