<p>By their own admission, NC State boosters used scripts and hacking to intentionally skew Kiplinger's "Best Value" poll in their favor and also worked to make sure that UNC dropped in the poll. Hopefully Kiplinger will recognize the disparities and work to rectify them.</p>

A lot of us at thewolfweb were already IP banned from that poll for skewing it before this thread was made. I personally made ~100,000 votes for NCSU and ~130,000 for Oregon to keep UNC out of 2nd before they started deleting votes.
