The AP Voter You Arbitrarily Love This Week: Mark Berman of The Roanoke Times, who slotted the Orange all the way up at No 2.
The AP Voter You Arbitrarily Hate This Week: Chuck McGill of the Charleston Daily Mail, who has the Orange all the way down at No. 10. Not a big believer in Maui wins, apparently. McGill had SU at No. 10 last week as well.
And because you're wondering, Ron Morris has us at No. 9 (Duke at No. 7).
