The Mumme Poll

For a quick background, the Mumme Poll consists of college football bloggers, avid fans, etc. and works much like any other poll. Some glaring differences are the fact the poll doesn't come out until after Week 6 of the college football season and you rank one top team in America with your next nine in no specific order. Many people believe that this would actually be the best way to run the Coaches and AP Top 25. Come see what me and other voters thought of what has transpired on the field thus far.

Here are the current standings after Week 6:

Rank	Team	Votes (Top pick)
1	Oregon	80 (50)
2	Auburn	79 (2)
3	Ohio State	78 (17)
4	Oklahoma	74 (1)
5	Boise State	72 (3)
6	Nebraska	71 (2)
7	TCU	69 (0)
8	Alabama	65 (2)
9	LSU	59 (4)
10	South Carolina	53 (0)
11	Michigan State	49 (0)
12	Utah	22 (0)
13	Stanford	12 (0)
14	Arkansas	7 (0)
15	Missouri	6 (0)
16	Iowa	4 (0)
16	Oklahoma State	4 (0)
18	Nevada	3 (0)
19	Florida State	2 (0)
20	Florida	1 (0)

So as you can see most of the country gave love to Oregon, including myself. Although I am a little puzzled by the Auburn Tigers high rank. Don't get me wrong, I'm very high on them but not the No. 2 team in the country. I didn't have any shockers in mine really. I ranked Oregon as my top team, followed by Nebraska, Oklahoma, Boise St., TCU, Ohio St., LSU, Auburn, Alabama and South Carolina in no specific order.

What do you guys think about the way the voting is done in this poll?

Seems as though Ohio State should be #2 based on these results

They were on only one fewer ballot than Auburn, and they got 15 more first-place votes. That adds up to a lot more support for OSU than Auburn.

Also: Who are the loons who voted LSU #1?

isn't

“loons” and LSU in the same sentence redundant?

Good point...

Great point wasn’t paying attention to that. You can see everybody’s ballot on the website by clicking the teams name.

Sorry...

Thats the website but I think viewing of the ballots is only available to voters. Not 100% but they said they were still working on some minor kinks. Hope this helps!
