Preseason CFRA Poll Posted

Posted by deaconcat08 on August 22, 2010

Please go to www.cfrapoll.com to see the preseason CFRA poll which was published yesterday.

Also, I’m happy to announce that the CFRA’s re-emergence has been officially been acknowledged by the NCAA. Here is a link to the 2010 NCAA Football Record: http://web1.ncaa.org/web_files/stats/football_records/DI/2010/2010FBS.pdf. You will see that on page 68 the origins of the College Football Researchers Association poll are described, and it is mentioned in the last sentence that the poll was restarted in 2009. You can also see from the chart immediately above the poll that we are currently one of the only seventeen active polls officially acknowledged by the NCAA. Furthermore, because of the predated national champions which the original CFRA elected, there are only five national polls that have elected more national champions than we have.

However, we are still looking to further expand the poll by adding other avid college football fans who would like to participate.  If you would like to become a CFRA voter, please e-mail me at bmatthews85@gmail.com and I will get you put on our mailing list and give you information on how to submit your weekly poll.  It would also be great if you could provide me with your name, location, and brief description of your college football interests and involvement so that I know a little bit about each of the voters.  We will probably allow for new voters to join throughout the first few weeks of the season, but there will be a deadline about when additional participants can be added.
