I don't know why the software posts the message, then posts the poll.

But, anyway, what is it, folks? We can use the results to determine an average of the biased sample, etc., blah-blah, yada yada....

No need to vote to cancel someone else's vote. An inverted normal curve would only show our extreme differences of opinion, in graph form.

7 - bad refs aren't much of a fluke, guess 7 is even to high.

Just checking: people who think that OK was the better team and that OK won should choose low flukiness?

my opinion is that if they played ten times on a neutral field, Oklahoma would win 4.

It's possible that every close game could be in the 7-8 range. There are some that had considered a 17-point loss at home a fluke, too, until this week.
