Two #5's??? Need a playoff

 

[OregonDucks]

a tie for 5th? That is interesting.

 

[uncfan103]

Four teams that havent won a game against an FBS team are receiving votes, thats interesting...

 

[bone3421]

i would say ksu needs to be ranked higher.......they really should be in front of texas

 

[KansasSooner]

K-State was the most impressive Big 12 team yesterday.

 

[olympicoscar]

I had Kansas St at number 12.

 

[TexasMan]

You mean we didn't fall 2 more spots after the win yesterday?

I'm not a fan of dropping Arkansas out of the top 25 when it is clear that a major reason for their loss was that their star QB missed the entire second half with a concussion.

Wilson was 11/20 for 196 yards with 2 TDs and 1 Pick
His replacement was 6/20 for 85 yards with 1 TD and 1 Pick

They did lose and the defense got shredded, so they deserve to go way down. Under those circumstances, taking them entirely out of the top 25 is unfair.

 

[HoHumHokie]

Wait a minute....Arizona needs overtime to beat a bad Toledo team in week 1 and then gets a game handed to them by Oklahoma State.....and they are now a top 25 team?!?!? And FSU proved that rolling up points on Savannah State is pretty simple, so maybe Oklahoma State was receiving more respect than they deserved.

This.

And there's no way Michigan should even be sniffing the top 30.

Injuries are part of the game. There was no reason for them to be top 10 in the first place, I like the fact they were dropped out.

Tennessee moved in so Arky had to move out.... New anti-SEC AP rules

Do not try to apply logic to polls...it'll give you a headache and cause premature aging.

Why does Arky deserve to be ranked? Because someone thought they were going to be good in the preseason?

This. Also, i noticed you (Smart) dropped Nebraska out of your top 25, but they played without Rex Burkhead. We have no way to know if Arkansas is a top 10 team, they might not be better than UNC, or Nebraska who both lost games and were playing without their best player. Arkansas gave up a lot 14 points to ULM in the 4th quarter, and a TD in overtime, thats not Tyler Wilsons fault.

I never said that Arky deserved to still be ranked.... They lost to ULM, they need to go. They are where they should be, on the cusp & looking in. They'll need to earn a top 25 now.

Good night now

Playing without Rex had no effect on the outcome. Other than a fumble, Nebraska's rb's played outstanding
