It comes down to who you have played. Texas A&M lost to Auburn and Clemson, two top ten teams that most of the top 25 would have also lost to.

Now dont get me twisted, i usually dont give two rats ass about the SEC except for Bama and LSU, mainly because they are the only two teams that have been worth a shit over the past 10 years. Yeah Florida makes a sporadic appearance and Georgia has been doing it good the past few years but on a scale of actual competitiveness consistency its Bama and LSU.

Didn't Florida win 2 National Championships since OU has seen one?

Wait a minute....They also beat the Sooners to win their last Championship! :pound:

Here's how the AP voters had it. TA&M's best vote came from Brett McMurphy, he had them 16th.

Nothing is perfect.... It's football, enjoy the game knowing that if your team takes care of business then they'll get a shot. If it bothers you that much about the rankings, then maybe you should watch something else on Saturdays.

Wow...remembering what you wrote really isn't your thing is it.

" i usually dont give two rats ass about the SEC except for Bama and LSU, mainly because they are the only two teams that have been worth a shit over the past 10 years."

You took that out of context. He also wrote:

The AP pollsters vote based off name recognition instead of actual merit?

Shocking!

If not for Alabama, Georgia would have made two playoffs and would have at least 1 win, maybe a Championship and maybe other wins as well, if Georgia is overrated as you stated, then Oklahoma is as well.

Well, since the second statement isn't any more correct than the first, I guess context doesn't matter much. But, I'm sure he's glad he has Fake Bama Bitch to fight his battles for him.

Here's some comparisons for the lot of you, using the past 10 completed seasons:

Alabama 5 national titles, 2 runners-up, 1 CFP 1st round exit, 1-1 in other bowls; 1 unbeaten season, 6 1-loss seasons, 2 2-loss seasons, 1 3-loss season, 0 4-loss seasons, 0 losing seasons.

LSU 0 national titles, 1 runners-up, 0 CFP appearances, 5-4 in other bowls; 0 unbeaten seasons, 1 1-loss season, 1 2-loss season, 4 3-loss seasons, 3 4-loss seasons, 0 losing seasons.

Auburn 1 national title, 1 runners-up, 0 CFP appearances, 4-3 in other bowls; 1 undefeated season, 0 1-loss seasons, 1 2-loss seasons, 0 3-loss seasons, 1 4-loss season, 1 losing season.

Florida 0 national titles, 0 runners-up, 0 CFP appearances, 6-2 in other bowl games; 0 undefeated seasons, 1 1-loss season, 1 2-loss season, 1 3-loss season, 2 4-loss seasons, 2 losing seasons.

Georgia 0 national titles, 1 runners-up, no other CFP appearances, 5-4 in other bowls; 0 undefeated seasons, 0 1-loss seasons, 2 2-loss seasons, 3 3-loss seasons, 1 4-loss season, 1 losing season.

There's enough consistency among those 5 teams to merit them getting ranked on a regular basis.

On the other hand, there's really no logical reason for the Aggies' high rankings.

Texas A&M 0 national titles, 0 runners-up, 0 CFP appearances, 5-5 in other bowl games; 0 unbeaten seasons, 0 1-loss seasons, 1 2-loss season, 0 3-loss seasons, 3 4-loss seasons, 1 losing season.

They’re the Iowa of the SEC.
