I'm voting in the 2010 BlogPoll along with over 100 other bloggers. The BlogPoll is different from the other major polls because it is transparent and the voters actually watch a bunch of different games. We're not coaches or mainstream media beholden to one specific team or beat. After the jump you'll find my preseason ballot. I encourage you to leave feedback, because you have the power to sway my vote with a good enough argument (straight cash will do too).

The most glaring omission from my preseason poll is LSU. There's no doubt in my mind that the Tigers are talented, but Les Miles' seat-of-the-pants coaching style has gone from asset to liability and quarterback Jordan Jefferson needs to prove he can be effective against great defenses.
