POLLSPEAKPollspeak is a watchdog organization dedicated to keeping college sports polls (and computer-rankings) honest, or at least questioning those that seem to be flawed, uneducated or have an unreasonable bias. Why? Because polls affect teams' TV exposure, finances, recruiting and national championship hopes. Voters and pollsters should be held accountable.

Free The Ballots PetitionThe Free The Ballots Petition simply states: "We, the undersigned fans of college athletics, request that you make the ballots of every voter public after every vote. We feel it is the only way to ensure the fair play and good sportsmanship embodied by college athletics continues to be upheld." To USA Today, Harris and the BCSThe petition's first targets will be USA Today and Harris Interactive. Hopefully they will follow the AP Poll and publish their ballots in all sports. For football, we will also petition the BCS to only use polls with public ballots in the future. This petition will also be sent to other collegiate sport polls that do not disclose votes.
