    Just got done reviewing the Coaches' Poll. Some pretty interesting results.

    OK State listed #4 on five ballots and listed #5 on one ballot.

    Of the SEC Coaches voting, all of them had Alabama #2, including Les.

    The coaches with OK State #4:

    Nick Saban, David Cutcliffe (Duke), Doug Marrone (Syracuse), Gary Pinkel (Missouri), and David Shaw (Stanford).

    The lunatic with them #5 is Troy Calhoun, Air Force coach.

    Interesting side note about conference loyalty:

    Every Big 12 coach except soon-to-be SEC coach Pinkel voted OK State #2.

    Every SEC coach voted OK State #3 or worse.

    Looks like Les wants to earn that pay raise by rubbing it in Saban's face one last time!

    Wow!
    Miles voted okie state #3.
    I guess he thinks that his team may not have taken okie light as a viable threat and would work harder aginst bama to prepare.
    It could also be a slap in the face to ole T Boone
    He could be just being an sec homer, making sure the sec wins it again
    He could be wanting to prove bama wasn't the better team

    OR HE Could just want to kick SABAN'S ARSE again.

    What do you think?

    Or, it could be that all the coaches - including Les - that voted Oklahoma State lower than 2nd did so because they actually thought that Alabama was the better team.

    Even though it probably would be true.

    And then went on with a bunch of guesses why....without ever offering that maybe...just maybe...he actually thinks Bama is better than them. Pretty clear.
