Your ranking...

We are an accurate AND mobile QB away from being a 11-1, 12-0 football program. The play calling has been "so crappy and conservative" because dobbs' throws are aaaaaall over the place. His legs are a true weapon but he limits our playbook with his errant passes.

Everyone wondered why Worley got the starting job over Dobbs last year know why now. He just isn't a drop back passer and limits us considerably on long down and distance downs.

We haven't beat a good team this year. Wins matter not close losses. We do not deserve to be ranked. Hopefully we get a quality team in the bowl game. Arkansas losing should help.

We are better than our record indicates, which is amazing considering the number freshman and sophomores that we are relying on.

Sagarin has us at 18 but that's a little high imo...I think we're in the second 20 but could break into the top 20 if we go 9-4...

I think we should be ranked about 27-29, but if we win next week and win our Bowl game, I think we should finish the season ranked 21-25. We have 4 losses, but we can hang with pretty much anyone in the top 25.

A better question than ranking is "how many teams are better than us?"

Maybe 15 or so.

Rankings are BS and include all sorts of bias.

Less than 10... We are a better team than Florida... We've improved through the year... We tested Bama in Tuscaloosa more than anyone else has... I'd say "what more do you want" but obviously we all want a couple September FG's that would allow the voters to put us around #10.

Really should be 9-2 team that's firmly in the top 25. That would say a lot considering this offense has limitations.

Not really Toledo is 9-1 and will likely crack the top 25 next week. They are at 26 right now.

Which shows you how preposterous the rankings are when they judge a team out of schedule context.

We are about an Oklahoma quality team but our losses hurt. I think we are top 20-25. And our D is mean. They invaded that safe space and violently thumped them.

Everybody agrees Ok, Fla and Ark were all games we SHOULD have won. It was only due to 3 meltdowns that they were losses. I blame coaching on the Fla and Ok games clearly and Arky was just a team meltdown. Think about winning those games we SHOULD have won and that's how close this team is 10-1...and being one of the nations elite right now.

Butch gets flack, as he should for those games. Some are content with being on an upswing and there are others who were used to being ranked top 5 in the country and being a national powerhouse and still hold on to those years...and look at the yr's since Fulmer as simply a bad stretch but that our rightful place is "elite".

There should be a happy medium somewhere in there. But you could rightly say this team could very well be 10-1. Ok and Fla were right there. We just blew those games. I'll give Arky that game as them just winning...and Bama too, even though we led in the 4th quarter.

We are a very good football team, although we have no passing game. That is why we have trouble getting into the end zone. If we had a duel threat quarterback we would be a top 15 or better football team. I think with things as they are we are somewhere around number 25.

I have no idea where we should be ranked but I will say this...I dont think there are more than 10-15 teams in the country that would beat us in a 3 game series.
