Moderators ... please delete this thread. I didn't see the earlier post by BringBack98 discussing the same phenomenon.

One receiving vote. One coach with one selection at 25th.

Novembet 11, 2018. Known by future generations as the day of the resurrection......

Personally i think its Saban. Throwing a bone to his last DC. And heck our tds we put on them make us as qualified to almost be ranked as any .500 team lol

Or Barry Odom since from a coaches perspective your next opponent is the best team in the country.

We should be in the top 40, now. I believe that's how it works. You have the top 25 and then the teams receiving votes are 26 through 40 or however many teams they show receiving votes.

My guess is Odom from Missouri, we play them next so the higher we’re rated the bigger fruit he harvests if he wins.

Assuming a best case scenario with Missouri, Vandy, and whoever a potential bowl game is against, even at 8-5 there's no guarantee that the team would be in the Top 25 anytime through the end of the season. At this point, I'm more looking to get a winning record for a change in general. We aren't even going to have a decent bowl if anything, not even Citrus or Outback. I'm looking at a bowl basically just to have a shot at a 7th or possibly even 8th win.

SDS just recently ran an article where they had updated their team projected bowl destinations and they have UT going to the Outback bowl. REASON: We would be coming off a 4 game win streak, have momentum and we travel well. At least it's a New Years day Bowl. I'd take this scenario all day!

In all honesty the teams that have beat us either are in the top 25 currently or have been. The only one I’m not sure if they’ve been ranked this year are the cocks. But it’s funny looking back, everyone thought Florida was garbage because they were beat by Kentucky early on. They then went on to beat us and many others, working their way up the top 25. Then WV, GA, Bama are all top 10.

I by no means am saying UT is ready to challenge Bama for the NC, or that UT isn’t getting their due recognition. But at the end of the day they haven’t performed terribly overall this season esp giving the circumstances.

Edit: Gamecocks were ranked week 2.
Not to discredit you, but yes, they have been terrible plenty this year lol

Mainly in the beginning. The more the season progresses, the more our team is coming together and the better our future looks, jmo. To his credit, He did say "overall"

You miss the Charlotte game? We're a good team, we're just not consistent
