Also Receiving Votes: Appalachian State, Massachusetts, New Hampshire Appalachian State's shock-the-world upset of Michigan at the Big House has opened a door for all teams in the Division Formerly Known as I-AA. Members of the AP poll can now vote for these teams. "The poll was always intended to measure teams that compete against each other, regardless of division, based solely on on-field performance," explained AP sports editor Terry Taylor. "It was that way long before Division I was divided into I-A and I-AA in 1978."

He has done it again at 43 years old, and possibly on his way to an unprecedented five time heavyweight champ. Holyfield has won his first fight in the comeback trail.

You can't compare Geogre Foreman to Holyfirld. Geogre has hands the size of hams, he makes knocking fighters down look easy. Holyfield is a boxer he moves and strikes. I wish him the best, but it really is a young man's sport.

Rice To Retire With 49ers Next Week. I like the move to sign a contract with San Francisco and then immediately retire. Somehow the idea of him retiring from any other team just wouldn't seem right. Just as I'm sure he'll be presented as a Niner when he goes into the Hall of Fame. The halftime honors in Nov is a nice touch. I'm not an SF fan, but I'll still miss watching him play.

Goodbye Mr. Rice and thank you for all the memories. You will always be a 49er to me. And has for those he think he should have retired a few years ago, maybe, maybe not, he showed us the age catches up to all of us.

I think they should be in the rakings. I read the comments about quality players going to smaller schools, thats because they get to play more, possible be a starter than bench warmer. As for other polls, you have the coaches poll, bcs,and ap poll that are looked at, they are suppose to rake teams. Teams can go undefeted and be bypassed for bowl games. It is a bad system. It would be great to have a true playoff system, that is based not on the size of your staduim but on your record on the field. So I say "WAY TO GO APPALACHIAN STATE!!!!! GO LUCK ON YOUR SEASON."
