Your average football fans tend to avoid paying too much attention to the national rankings in college football this early in the season unless there is some kind of controversy going on. Rightfully so since there is little reason to concern yourself with any ranking until the end of season where ranking has an impact on what bowl a team could possibly get invited to. That said I took a glance at the polls this week just out of curiosity and I was shocked at what I found. I couldn't believe that Alabama's 3rd string players didn't get more love from the voters than that after the beating they put on the Arkansas Razorbacks.
