Basketball Blogpoll -- Week 1
Its time for the first week's blogpoll. This poll is being run by March to Madness, and right now we have eleven total participants in the poll. Other participating blogs besides MTM and ASOB are:
- NCAA Hoops Today
- SEC Hoops: The Good, The Bad, and the Dirty
- March Madness All Season
- Rush The Court
- College Hoops Heaven
- Tar Heel Mania
- Plissken at the Buzzer
- A Pudge Is A Sandwich
- Storming the Floor
If you've never visited these great college basketball blogs, be sure to do so.
Below, you will find the final aggregated tally. To get a look at everyone's ballot, you can go to this link for the public spreadsheet.
Keep in mind that this is just week one, and every voter is looking at things a little differently. There is no well-defined system for evaluating who goes where, everyone has their own method to madness.

How can O&B Hue participate?

Absolutely ...
Just mail him your blog details and tell him you want to participate. He just added another blog to the list of participants 10 minutes ago.

Heh ...
In a way, that is a compliment to Kentucky. Just not the kind I want to see ... :-)

It shows respect

Gardner-Webb
That's right - we voted for GW as a symbolic nod to the little guys who don't get much respect in the CBB world. Exactly like the App St votes in the football poll this year. Needless to say, though, after tonight's loss, they'll be dropping out of our next ballot.
