A comparison study of the Week 6 BlogPoll college football rankings and those of the Coaches’ Poll finds little in the way of substantial difference:

Top five: But for a disagreement over the respective placements of Ohio State and Oregon in slots 2 and 3, no disagreement.
Next five: BlogPoll places Arizona two slots higher than the Coaches’ Poll, while the coaches the same for LSU.
Creamy middle: Florida is a full five slots higher in the Coaches’ Poll than in BlogPoll. BlogPoll places Stanford four slots above the coaches’ ranking. Nevada is three slots higher in BlogPoll.
Hangers-on: Largely similar, apart from the Coaches swapping Northwestern in for the final poll slot.
