Gotta love how Michigan is on the list, with Western, Northern, Lake State and Tech all receiving some votes too.

Poor Sparty.

Man, the state of Minnesota is no joke.

Four teams in the top six at the same time. Definitely impressive! 

But the State of Michigan has a claim Minnesota can't match. Michigan has 4 schools that have each won multiple National Championships! 

And at least one other State school has held a #1 ranking at least once.

Correction:  I forgot about Northern.    So ....

Michigan has 5  schools that have won National Championships! 

And 4 of them have each won multiple National Championships! 

And at least one other State school has held a #1 ranking at least once.

And it appears it's tradition to rank the defending champ #1 and the runner-up #2 in the preseason regardless of their actual team quality, so this basically means people expect UM to be the best team in the country.
