Not that we have a large enough fan base, but is the 1970 team the "Finest"?

Does Union really belong on that list?

Also, the '06 Wisconsin should really be in any such discussion, but the stretch where Elliot was out makes them look worse than they actually were.

Not good for us, CU vs. LSSU voting is on Monday. I suspect not many fans are into it yet.

Is there a direct link to the poll itself?

Not so close anymore; Lake Superior State is pulling away rapidly. If you tweet or share after you vote, please include the link, which it appears the NCAA's suggested text does not.

Sorry to be dense, but...  how do I vote?  I'm on the page for the matchup and I don't see any kind of a poll.

So when I followed the link (on my phone) the only button I could see for voting gave me the option of doing it with twitter or facebook, and I came away with the impression that you had to tweet or share in order to vote.  Since I didn't feel like spamming my friends about it, and have a locked twitter account anyway, I navigated away from the page.  Was I mistaken?

The anachronistic logo is a bit offputting, BTW.  Huggy Bear didn't exist in 1970...

I thought I voted twice.  Once at work on a PC and once at home on a tablet.  But I didn't tweet or post to Facebook so? ?

I thought that once I clicked on Cornell I had voted.

I had the same thought.

I'm very uninterested in "VOTE IN OUR MEANINGLESS ONLINE (easily hackable) POPULARITY VOTING CONTEST FOR A THING YOU LIKE! BEAT THE OTHERS! (and drive traffic to our site, pretty-please)" hysteria, but for marketing-driven "tweet to win" things, I created an anonymous dummy twitter account that follows nobody & nobody follows. Bleep-blorp -- away goes my sweepstakes entry into the ocean of oblivion.
