Maryland Voters Revealed


The great thing about the AP poll board's site is you can systematically go through each voter's ballot rather than being stuck looking through all of them.


In short, it means you can use probability to make it a bit easier. In the hunt for Maryland's two voters in this week's poll, it made sense to go with people who previously voted for the Terps this season (only three) and voters in the ACC's general region.


Sure enough, a former voter (NPR's John Feinstein) and a voter within the ACC's geographic area (Orlando Sentinel's Andrew Carter) gave their No. 25 nods to Maryland.


They'll have a lot more company if the Terpies go into Cameron Indoor Stadium and poach a victory on Wednesday. Only three other teams have won at North Carolina and Duke in the same season in the last quarter-century (1994-95 Wake Forest, 1995-96 Georgia Tech and 2006-07 Virginia Tech), and a win at Duke would certainly grab a lot of attention for the rising Terps.
