[NU Sports] AP Doesn't Like US

[pskinas]

We're certainly in the minority of the AP pollsters at this stage... however, Kyle Ringo of the Daily Camera in Boulder, CO has us the highest of voting members of the media at # 21.  

Of the 11 ballots on which we were listed, it's interesting to see that only 1 is from the Midwest (Bob Asmussen, Champaign News-Gazette @ # 25).  The other NU voters are from NC, NY, NM, OK, NJ, FL, NE, OR and MA, with Craig James (#23) of ESPN being the only national figurehead with Northwestern on his ballot (Herbstreit - unranked, Fowler - unranked, etc.)

We're 30th in the AP Poll, behind several of the schools voted below us in 
the USA Today poll, including most notably, Air Force at 25, USC at 28 and 
Texas at 29.  Who would have thought the coaches (SIDs) would have a better 
grasp on this than the sportswriters :)
