Cannot figure out how our 2 losses (OT with aTm and losing badly to #1 team) are somehow way worse than FSU (drubbed by one-loss Louisville and beaten in regulation by unranked UNC). Auburn can make the same argument.

1) Tennessee dropped more spots by WINNING games than OSU, FSU, and other did LOSING to unranked teams.

2) Florida's ranking.... LOL!

3) The entire B1G is a damn joke. They all play high school teams every week. Michigan plays 1 or 2 tough games all year, and we're finding out those arent what we thought either. And Nebraska?? Pfff. These teams get to play cupcakes every week, stay healthy, and then compete at the end. BS.

Scheduling in CFB is a complete mess. There needs to be some equality. NCAA needs to make power 5 schools play 2-3 hard games every year.

LSU and Vtech are the best #17 and #25 teams i may have ever seen. Tech would handle the entire SEC east, maybe even us as banged up as we are currently and could beat 3 west teams as well. No love for the hokies.

I still put LSU in the "they suck' category" (which I placed them in after the 1st game of the year), but they have definitely gone a long way in trying to dig out of that hole they were in. still hard to gauge, the 3 dominating wins in a row have been impressive but all 3 of those opponents had bad defenses and one dimensional offenses.

The biggest problem since the UF game was moved is the brutal second half schedule which I believe they have the #1 SoS remaining in the NCAA. I'm not sure Etling is good enough to get LSU the win in 2 weeks but hopefully they make it an interesting game.

WOW
When u put up the teams they have beat its ridiculous. They are some teams that are not regular top 25 teams like Indiana, Northwestern or say Kansas. They have the same wins and 5 and 1 record their not even in top 25 refer to others getting votes.

12 + 25 / 2 = 18 --- sounds about right.

Got slaughtered by alabama + could have beat aTM but lost in ot = 18 ---- sounds about right.

Remind Team 120, next time when we have the opp to start the season #9 after a 9-4 season, to not let App St + Ohio make us look like a #30 in the first 3 weeks, next go around, and we'll be better off. I.E. start the season strong and hold it strong, if rankings are important because of what YOU do vs what OTHERS are / are not doing.
