Southern Mississippi 165 22. Florida 155 23. West Virginia 148 24. Texas A&M 106 25. Missouri 104 The iTwentyFive is comprised of voters from across the nation who are either free-lance writers, work for alternative media, or are radio broadcasters. The poll is designed to give votes to people who get to watch more than one or two games per weekend and have no systematic bias. We believe it is the most accurate of the polls when it comes to evaluating teams from the vantage point of actually watching the teams play multiple times against different opponents in varying situations. In a nutshell, the jobs that writers and coaches have actually impair their ability to evaluate all teams fairly. Our voters don’t have that problem.
