Re: AP poll now open for 1-AA
This is dumb.
I have no problem with "Football Championship Subdivision" teams being eligible for the polls, but I do find it lame that just because one team pulls an upset, people are now clamoring to get them in the rankings. It's not like they have any chance to stay ranked and it's not like any other "Football Championship Subdivision" team will crack the polls.
The 1-A teams (the new names of the divisions are too long, so I'm going back to the old terms) should petition to be included in the 1-AA polls.
Again, I don't have a problem with every team being eligible for the rankings, but I just don't like how reactionary this decision was, simply because of one big upset.
