Remember back in August how two different newspapers cited the same poll with different results? Here was the entry and just fyi, I e-mailed Tim MacMahon at the Dallas Morning News and he thought I paid too much attention to details..LOL

Associated Press pre-season HS football poll
Yesterday, the Associated Press released it's 2005 pre-season football poll. Here are the rankings for Class 3A: This poll was from the Abilene Reporter News. If you look at the 2nd poll from the Dallas Morning News, Sweetwater isn't in the rankings, and they claim it's the same AP Poll. Makes no sense to me. Which newspaper is correct in their reporting? I hope the Abilene reporter News is.
