App receiving 3 votes. Does the team lose votes over the next couple of weeks for not playing?

I saw that too in today's Greensboro paper (yes I'm old school and still get newspaper delivered every morning), we've got more votes (2) than Troy which is cool. I would think our not playing wouldn't hurt us but wouldn't it depend on how those above us do on whether they win their last games?

My wife and I (she's an employee of the News & Record) thank you.

If we drop without playing that would only reinforce how useless most polls really are. I rate us in the top 40 easily which says we in the top one third of FBS level teams.

No problem! I actually dropped for a while and went with another local paper because of delivery issues, but have gone back because I like the N&R and they fixed our carrier issue. Also, liking their coverage of the Apps now...way better than back in the day.
