I love Gary Parrish's weekly poll attacks column so going to take a shot at my own Iowa State version today...

I looked at the 6 voters that don't have Iowa State ranked. Elton Alexander, of The Plain Dealer (Cleveland), didn't move Iowa State onto his ballot today which on it's own isn't completely ridiculous. But do you know who Elton moved up from unranked last week to #21 this week? Davidson! The #85 team on KenPom who picked up wins against sub 250 George Washington and sub 100 Saint Louis over the past week. Yikes Elton!

P.S. Two of those other 6 voters who have ISU unranked had ISU ranked last week. That's a pretty dumb move but such is life with the AP poll.

I really shouldn't care this much, but Elton Alexander is an absolute idiot. He moved Iowa State down 4 spots (21 to 25) on his ballot after picking up a Top 20 road win.

He moved Wisconsin and Maryland ahead of ISU after both those teams took losses last week. And you really can't make this up... He also moved KState ahead of ISU hahahaha.

Just proving some of these writers don't even watch sports. Yes, I said it correctly.

This is why you don't stock into these polls.
 
He is not as bad as **** Vitale or David Cloninger who do not have us ranked. Duke Vital had us ranked 15 2 weeks ago, we lose a bad game to TCU he drops us off his top 25 then a too 20 road win and he still has us out of his top 25. Wow.

Don't you see? Doesn't fit his ACC narrative. He'd spin it in a way saying Big 12 sucks.

Dickie Duke Vitale, Clueless Cloninger, and Elton Alexander all deserve as many negative votes that Cyclone fans can muster.
