Michigan drops a slot and Michigan State leaps to #15:
Results for Week 6
Writeup at SB Nation. The CK Award is so terrifying this weeks winner ranked Arkansas #12, which is exactly where they are in the poll.

For those also paying attention to it, the CK formula has been wrong quite a bit lately. Brian now knows.
The reason I point this out, SpartyMSU definitely overranked MSU by ONE WHOLE POSITION. That would had won (supposedly) this week. Not that I'm trying to invoke the CK curse or anything...

It's not by number of positions, but by number of points relative to the average. MSU may be 15th, but the average vote is 11.6 points (which is slightly closer to 14th than 15th). That one actually looks right. (Whew.)

The continued presence of Utah (and LSU) is indeed unconscionable.
I am quite surprised at the monolithic Bama support, given the pantsing Oregon gave to Stanford.

There seem to be a lot of kinks in the BlogPoll.
For example, if you look at Alabama's vote distribution, it shows 110 first place and 3 second place votes. Assuming everyone voted for Alabama at some spot (and I have no reason to suspect anyone isn't, nor the time to verify that they did), that's 113 total first place votes available. In your post, you note that there are only 107 first place votes (of which Alabama has 108), and the table shows 110.
Also, the CK Award is totally botched somehow, as noted by FA above. I think some Penn State voter had them at 17 last week and would have won in a landslide compared to who was actually listed on the CK leaderboard (which would have had the side effect of resulting in another CK casualty).

I was indifferent about Brian fixing the errors until I got to your parenthetical. C/K LIVES ON!

Boise State has beaten Oregon two years in a row.
I'm just sayin'
Countdown to the haters in 3... 2... 1...
