You also have to take into account that most AP writers probably haven't watched a Southern Miss game this season, outside of the couple of dunks that have made it to ESPN. And USM doesn't have a "star" player that truly sticks out when you look at the stat sheet. I think that's why there's the big disparity from the Coaches poll to the AP poll. Coaches have watched film/tape on USM, a lot have at least, and I think that's why we're getting more votes in that poll.

When I was in school they brought in Better than Ezra and Train... Didn't even fill up a quarter of RG.. But it was fun except for the guy at the beginning be bopping into a microphone.

I guess someone forgot to tell the large crowd that was there watching him that.

There is a reason why we are struggling to get quality ooc opponents, and that is pretty much reflected in those polls.

....would venture a guess that the coaches poll number is a direct reflection on DT

....would also venture the same guess that the media is biased

we just have to keep winning....

pure corkboard fodder is what this gives us

....it's not like USM doesn't understand not getting respect based on performance.......

edit: it's also interesting looking at SMU in both polls....the irony of politics vs respect....

I remember having Sawyer Brown and Cowboy Mouth. Sawyer Brown was a pretty good choice. Cowboy Mouth was just easy to get. That dude's a world class spotlight-hog.

Anyway... I've never seen the musical act outdraw the game.

They got targeted in conference expansion, which is more than we can say. They've probably got a lot more national respect than we do, and they probably aren't mocked by the townies like USM is.

yessir....he's a state employed douche spewing hellfire from a cube.....

he's fkn with the wrong batch.....poor boy has no clue
I had to read more of your drivel when somebody quotes you. Please don't quote this sicko, as he has no clue what he is talking about. I am a retired man that obviously has nothing else to do but read psycho's posts. He is one sick individual. Please do not quote him

....you have neither that matter

You're not missing much, the guy speaks in weirdo code. I'm done with trying to decipher it as well.
