Here’s DigNittany’s North Pole Poll (It’s Cold at the Top), in which we lift the AVCA poll votes of Russ Rose, Christy Johnson-Lynch and John Dunning (a link to all the votes can be found in the lower left-hand column of the AVCA poll page if you Click Here) and add the votes of our own lionsfan.

Yet another #1 — can Southern Cal hold on?  Texas back at #2, (with the Wahine pushing hard).  Everyone loves Florida (except lionsfan, who still has major crush on Sparty), and B1G looking good, with three teams in  our Top 10:
