I would as least admit the bias exists (which you do). Others seem to think its legit. And believe me, there will be lots of crying when it changes.

Oh I have no doubt. I figure it'll be pretty entertaining to see who's stance on the subject flip flops when things eventually change lol.

Also, why are some of you ranking Ohio state? They aren't eligible for anything.

I'm pretty certain we discussed this with USC last year and determined that all teams were eligible for the SportsHoopla poll. So, if they are eligible, and they are one of the top 25 teams, I am voting for them.

Any team from ANY other league loses a game and they drop 8-15 places. SEC team loses they drop 2-5. They even stay in the top 10.

If Oregon loses to ASU this weekend I guarantee they'll be no higher than 13. If Oregon was an SEC team we'd drop to 7 or 8 at the MOST.

The difference is that the top SEC teams are losing to teams that are better than Arizona "we lost to the 12th best team in the SEC" State.

LSU lost a road game at Florida in a hostile environment at the very end.

South Carolina lost at LSU a week after having to play Georgia in a big game by 2 points.

Oklahoma lost at HOME to Kansas State after having no challenges the week before.

I agree Oklahoma probably dropped a little far and are a top ten team but your crying is ridiculous. Plus Oklahoma's reputation in title games against SEC and Pac12 teams is enough reason to keep them out of the title game.

IMO, it is unfair that teams like Ohio, Cincy, Rutgers, etc. get ranked so high for being undefeated when they don't play anybody.

This.

LSU lost in the SWAMP!

South Carolina lost in Death Valley AT NIGHT!!

Oklahoma lost in NORMAN!!


Same think goes for Alabama last year, Bama lost to LSU in Death Valley at NIGHT!

Oklahoma st. lost to Iowa st!!.....Iowa st...

No other team deserved a mention. Our game with LSU was so close, and we obviously should've won if we didn't shank so many goddamn kicks. We didn't lose to a scrub like okie st. did.

You two should stop crying and actually think about why one would drop farther than the other instead of bitching about SEC bias.

Lets get something straight.

Bama lost in their own house and didn't even play in their conference championship. Sorry, but that should've removed them from contention.

Oklahoma state shouldn't have lost to Iowa state no, but at least it was away from home and what you continue to neglect to mention was the plane crash tragedy going on while they were sitting in the locker room in a rain delay. They then proceeded to throttle Oklahoma.

Sorry bub, bama should've never been there and Oklahoma state got the shaft.

Also, why are some of you ranking Ohio state? They aren't eligible for anything.

I guess we haven't come to a group decision as to whether or not they should be ranked.
