Why do we have polls anyway?

Polls are supposed to provide an objective analysis where subjectivity is insufficient (or at least that's what people tell me).


Here's the thing.  Two ATROCIOUS phantom holding calls effectively removed 6 points from Pittsburgh's score tally and gave the ball back to West Virginia undeservedly. (and another excessive celebration penalty that was ridiculous).  The already-been-proven by plenty of examples incompetent and possibly corrupt Big East officials tried their damnedest to give the game to WVU.

Pollsters can use their "objectivity" to discount entirely WVU's win (if they come back). If a win is undeserved, vote as if they didn't.

Just sayin'.

UPDATE: Never mind.  Karma.
