Highest of any coach. Clark Lea ranks his own team ahead of us. Good Lord.
Cignetti ranks Iowa #11 in Coaches Poll

Iowa played them as well as anyone this year.
Cig has mad respect for KF & Iowa.
Im sure they are familiar with each other as KF was down to bama plenty over the years.

Aren't there stories of coaches delegating their ballots to assistants or staffers? Not sure Curt or Mark really put much effort into those
Being a .500 fired coach if he actually did this, it is quite petty. Hoping it was a staff member BUT something tells me it was him.
In fairness to Stoops or his assistant, or say a coach at WVA or Boston College, how much do you know about Iowa? Or USC? Or, Utah? How much effort are you going to put into these polls?
I'd rather see a B1G coaches poll ranking the B1G teams. Of course, it would probably look just like the standings I guess.

They are at work on game days, and they’re only going to watch film on their next opponent. If you aren’t on their schedule they know next to nothing about you.
That’s why I only put stock in the coaches poll if it ranks Iowa higher than the AP
I could see him appreciating the type of discipline Iowa players typically have on the field. Also I am sure he likes Kirk.
That's just ridiculous no matter who filled it out.
Vanderbilt 12 and no Iowa. F him.
His dad was buried wearing a Hawkeye jersey.
Then as in any other election, if you don't know anything, don't vote.
And I can't imagine Vandy being ranked lower (or should I say higher) than 12.
Dud of a game against Mich State but still won it.
What a joke - Navy in the Top 25!! Stoops is obviously as bad at evaluating teams as he is coaching.
There's more wrong with that list than there is right.
Aside from Iowa not being in there and then having Vanderbilt #12, there is the egregious FOUR LOSS, and OBLITERATED IN THEIR LAST GAME Alabama as #7.
Cigs is one of the best in the business and really does his homework.
That joke is always so funny

Tells you how stupid this poll can be; either Mark Stoops is as dumb as we think or he didn’t even take 2 seconds to enter his vote.
last possibility; bitter?
Fairness?
Vanderbilt 12th and Iowa not ranked at all?

Iowa gave away their game with Indiana. Indiana humiliated and emasculated Alabama in front of the entire country. Anyone still voting Alabama in the top 10 have some serious mental issues.
Just an FYI for all of you commenting on the above post, that was the UK votes for the previous poll prior to the FINAL poll.
Scroll up on this page for the UK votes (made by Keith Farmer/WLEX TV, not Stoops) and it clearly has Iowa ranked #18 vs Vandy #23.
With regards to the dude from Texas Final poll votes.... (Vandy #13 and Iowa unranked) ...F*** him!!!
I used the below link which shows all of the coaches poll. Keith Farmer is an AP write and has nothing to do with the coaches poll. Coaches weekly polls are not released, only the final poll.

Wow, some of the coaches (or more likely their interns/assistants) should not be allowed to vote. Outside of ignorance, the bias is obvious.
How can anyone with a modicum of integrity leave Alabama in their Top 10, let alone not have Iowa ranked??
Also, it's funny that Marcus Freeman/ND doesn't have rival USC ranked and chose to vote for Illinois instead.
Btw, it would appear that James Franklin is the one still holding the grudge putting Vandy ahead of Iowa ...frick'n idiot.

You can tell the ones that put thought into it when you see the ones that have Iowa a single spot ahead of Vandy. There's a lot of them like that. Then you have the ones that have Vandy like #12 and Iowa #24.....like, do you even know football?
