1 - Big 12 Media Days start Monday
2 - I'm sure that when the Big 10 Media Day's roll around, whenever that may be, The Big 10 Media will release their conference predictions and the Register will have it on the front page of their website, just like they did with the Big 12.
3 - IIRC, the Big 10 media, to spare the agony of the other 8 schools, only releases who they think will finish in the top 3.
4 - I too would love if the ballots of the Big 12 media were made public. sCUm finishing third in the Big 12? Missery 5th? If that were to happen, Pinkel might as well order a moving truck now.
To further put an end to your Oliver Stone conspiracy theroy that the Register is out to screw Iowa State, here's a link to the Big 12 Press Release announcing the media's preseason poll

Quoted post</div><div class='quotemain'> In the continuing series entitled "Iowa State Sucks", the Register ran the third installment today:
The "story"
I'm sure this isn't the Register's doing, but the ambiguous "media" term is just a bit flakey. If it is a reputable source making the prediction, why not list it? And of course, Big11Ten predictions are nowhere to be seen, though I'm sure the Sunday Register's front-page will read "Iowa Hawkeyes Given Big Ten Championship For Rest Of Time After Other 10 Teams Admit They're Too Scared To Compete Against Them".
Slow news day, huh?
