There are major flaws in that list that just show me that its not a good representation of the top 25 at all.

I don't think just sample size is the problem. You could have 1,000 people who didn't watch any regionals but read who one and you probably wouldn't get much better results.
Instead, if we really wanted to make this something worthwhile and cool, we could nominate say 25 people to be the voters. Each person could nominate 3 people and the top 25 people who recieved the most votes (and would be willing to vote each week), would be designated the voters. Everyone would know who they were and they would be credible voters.
PS: how is 1625 not in the top 3? I only saw Midwest, but they were clearly the best team there.
