Butch Davis' ranking philosophy

Posted Oct 27, 2010
North Carolina head coach Butch Davis doesn't have a vote in the coaches poll this year for the first time in his career. But he still gave his views on how he ranks undefeated mid-majors compared to big conference schools with one or more losses. And good news for coaches like Chris Peterson (BSU) and Gary Patterson (TCU) because Butch doesn't discriminate against the mid-major. (WRAL Sports Fan)
