[Bigorangefan 98]

Texas goes from preseason #1 to unranked.
This is proof that Arch was adopted !

Or either the mail man made a visit while dad was at work ….

 

[Volinnooga]

PSU went from 7 to unranked, ouch.

Well deserved

Big game James. Doing his thing .

PSU went from 7 to unranked, ouch.

Losing to a winless team in Week 5/6 ought to do that, especially if it's your 2nd loss.

Polls don’t matter so what difference does it make? Why you in here anyway?

To make sure my good pal and buddy Behr keeps the heart rate up!

I'll take a 3 spot jump on our Bye Week

We have the toughest Bye Week schedule of any one in division 1 football. No doubt about it we deserved to jump 3 spots.

Per ESPN:

“Before Sunday, the last time two top-10 teams fell out of the poll the same week was Sept. 16, 1986, when it happened to No. 8 Tennessee and No. 10 Ohio State.”

(For reference, that was the second week of a season in which Tennessee lost to Mississippi State and Ohio State - who had lost its first game to #5 Alabama 16-10 in week 1 - got blown out 40-7 by #17 Washington.)

Really weird coincidence that UT played State and OSU played Washington last weekend then.

This isn't a true stat

This has happened since then and before last week

Just one look and i found that Kentucky, Florida and Wisconsin dropped out of the top ten the same week in 2007

Also in 1998 Florida St and Notre Dame fell out of the top ten in week 2

 

[UTFranklinVol]

ranked #12 and yet still only the 7th highest raned SEC team

They said when two top 10 teams fell out of the poll (ie, fell out of the AP Poll entirely) in the same week.

While Kentucky was in the top 10 in the 9/30 AP Poll in 2007, it was still ranked in the next week’s AP Poll after it lost (they only fell to #17).

Same goes for Florida (who was still ranked #13 in the 10/3/2007 AP Poll) and Wisconsin (who was still ranked #19 in the 10/3/2007 AP Poll).

ahhh gotcha I misunderstood

 

[TrueOrange]

No worries. Could see how it could happen.

 

[A-RodWiLks]

Whoever gave votes to Perv state and Texas should be tarred and feathered with derelict pubic hair

 

[Rickyvol77]

What makes that 1986 loss to Miss State so bad was that was the game Randy Sanders was at QB and overthrew a wide open game winning TD in the endzone

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

Texas, Penn State absolutely deserves to be dropped out of top 25 but is anyone else surprised they actually did drop that far?

Media preseason darlings, I figured 20-25 would be their landing.

I’m stunned I thought they’d be somewhere between 15 and 25

 

[IndianaVol]

Honestly, looking at the teams ahead of us, if we take care of business at Bama and beat OU we should end up in the Top 5.

Even if we drop one of those two, should still be firmly in the CFP.

 

[BornAndRaisedVOL!]

They just cant help but to slurp on Notre Dame, regardless of how mediocre they are.

And it was only about a 15 yard toss

 

[wrangler]

PSU went from 7 to unranked, ouch.

And Texas went from 9 to unranked.

Earned it.

 

[cgrish]

Earned it.

Texas was not good last year really.. They had a very soft schedule, really only played 2 teams that were very good, Ga. and Ohio State, and lost them all

 

[VAVol85]

Texas ranked far below TX Tech, TX A&M, and Oklahoma is not going to sit well with Longhorn nation!

 

[Big Orange Captain]

I’m stunned I thought they’d be somewhere between 15 and 25

They still have those big wins over Nevada and Villanova in their back pocket
