The revised poll breaks a 20th-place tie between Boston College and Arizona State, dropping the Sun Devils into the No. 22 ranking behind California. Poll voter Ken Tysiac of The Charlotte Observer said he mistakenly sent his Sept. 10 poll ballot, rather than his Sept. 17 ballot, to The AP on Sunday. "I cut and pasted the wrong file, the previous week's file, into the e-mail that I sent to the AP' Tysiac said Monday, shortly after submitting the correct ballot. Even though the only change was in the order of the Nos. 20,21 and 22 teams, AP sports editor Terry R. Taylor said the poll was recalculated to maintain its integrity. "While we normally do not allow votes to be changed, it was clear in this case that an outdated ballot had been inadvertently submitted and we simply allowed the correct ballot to be substi- tuted," she said. Tysiac said Observer readers caught his mis- 4. West Virginia take after the paper published his ballot, as it does each Monday during college football season.

MUST FLEE T.V.: Don't expect Carr to get his own sitcom on NBC in the near future. During his weekly press con- ference held Monday afternoon, Carr ripped Notre Dame and NBC for the length of Satur- day's game. For the past few years, Carr has been a proponent of the NCAA's efforts to speed up the game. On Monday, he said that television has too large a role in the sport and is overextending the games. "We got there, and they informed us that there were four commercial timeouts per quarter, at five minutes each - that's 80 minutes," Carr said. "That's where television is having too big an impact on the flow of the game. "I know this - the last time we were down there, I know we didn't have five-minute time- outs. It's an encroachment on the game that, in my judgment, has gone to far." The game lasted three hours and 28 minutes, largely due to the 16 five-minute timeouts mandated by NBC. Carr said he couldn't remember a game he's been a part of with that many stoppages of time. "If I'm a fan sitting up there - you know, I love football, but I was ready to go halfway through the third quarter," Carr joked. SPECIALER TEAMS: After show- ing noticeable holes in its spe- cial teams against Central Michigan, Michigan did much better on Saturday against Notre Dame. A week prior, the Chippewas began possessions near mid- field on multiple occasions. On Saturday, Michigan pinned the Fighting Irish deep in its own territory on almost all of its 10 kickoffs. "I thought our special teams were much improved, particu- larly our kick coverage," Carr said. "Steve Breaston (also) did an excellent job fielding punts, getting the ball back up the field and reducing the net punt- ing they had." The lone mistake Carr noted was kicker Garrett Rivas's failed extra-point attempt following Michigan's second touchdown. "Garrett Rivas kicked the ball well," Carr said. "The one extra point, Notre Dame has concen- trated efforts to push inside and get guys up. I thought the ball maybe was a little low, but with that exception, I thought Gar- rett continued to kick the ball very well." NBC, WE STILL LOVE YOU.
