My Final AP Football Poll
I'm so happy for Gator QB Chris Leak. He broke through the boos from his own fans for a crowning moment. It's always tough to watch high school players from North Carolina leave the state but in Leak's case, you can't fault him. He's now a national champion. Of course Florida gets my top vote.
My second place vote goes to the undefeated Broncos of Boise State. What a season and a bowl win over Oklahoma. Could Boise State compete in the Big Ten or SEC?? Probably not but I voted on what teams did, not what they could have done. I'll bet Boise State appreciates a runner-up finish in the national poll more than the rest of the top 5 finishers.
So here goes my final vote of the year....I can't wait til next year!
