Discuss polls here. Here as in the thread you are currently in, the link is a link to the voting thread, not where you discuss polls. It's pathetic that I have to clarify this, but some morons have to have obvious things spelled out for them.

I'm going to comment on Va Tech. The second half of the season they have played the
second best football in the ACC. After Duke punked them...they turned their season around.
If they beat UVA for the 77th straight time or whatever the count is, they can cause Clemson
some issues in the ACC title game. I don't believe they have enough offense to beat Clemson
but they could make them sweat.

Seriously? You didn't read the opening comments of my post or see a link to the discussion thread?

I swear to God, it's somebody new every week.

GTFO

 

[Yo Tee]

Unpopular opinion (most of mine are), but with the number of 1-2 loss teams out there, there should be no 3-4 loss teams in the top 25.

 

[ericd7633]

@Terry Rode @UtahUte @OregonDucks the floor is yours...

 

[UtahUte]

Well Oregon helped some teams out after yesterday, but for some reason, there’s a lot of people saying Utah’s chance at the CCG are no longer! Mmmmmkay, but Utah didn’t lose they won thier game. Does anyone have a take on Utah situation? Without the bullshit though if possible.

No Georgia?

Then why is UAB in your poll?

Unpopular opinion, but I don't punish teams much for losing to better competition and sometimes I may even move a team up if a team looked better than expected vs a highly ranked team

 

[78Cyclones]

No Georgia?

Oops! Total accident. I was moving stuff around, and they got lost in the shuffle! I will update and post a new one. Thank You!

 

[Yo Tee]

@Terry Rode @UtahUte @OregonDucks the floor is yours...

Why, because of the facepalm ratings? You've done your fairshare as well so the floor is yours as well.

USC and Auburn I can get, but Texas A&M? Virginia Tech? Oklahoma State? How many 3-4 loss teams ACTUALLY belong in the top 25. I say 2 at most but even then, I don't think they deserve to be in the top 25.

 

[Yo Tee]

Thought they were 8-2. Mah bad.
