All we need is around 19,999,997 more individual anecdotes, and we'll have the data I've already shared!!!!  Yaay!

All of the sources saying 1 million specify it includes those staying for one month or more. 


They are simply wrong. There are many, many people who come and go. Two weeks, gone, two weeks, gone, two weeks, gone.

My lane is in Florida. You know, where I live and experience the effects of "season".

Last "season" we had 5 visitors who stayed with us for one week or more.

How about you?

This is just dumb.



A drop that far after a ONE point road loss to #3 is idiocy.

I have them at #2 still.

It is dumb, I agree, and predictable.  I would have them at 3 followed by Vandy.

We have a lot of people coming down, starting in November.

They will not count in the stats, but they are snowbirds, just like the people who fill up the hotels, VRBO's, beaches and restaurants for a week at a time.

In my opinion, a snowbird doesn't have to own a home to be considered one.

It's warm here, and people come and go. Some stay longer than others, for sure.

6 votes for Oregon at #1, every one of them from a B1G homer.  You gotta love it. :)

Yeah.  That does seem homer ish.    I think Texas has separated themselves from the rest. 

As I said yesterday- I would bet confidently on the Horns against Oregon or OSU.

Well I don't know about that, I think Oregon has a better victory than anything Texas has done so far.  And the same would be true of Ohio State had your Buckeyes won last night.

I just thought it was funny. I think Oregon is deserving of a #1 vote, and don't actually take any issue with this.

I think we'll find out more about Texas on Saturday.

I like their o-line.  The QB.  The defense.  

I guess “ on any given day”
