This Poll is a Joke. Not being bitter but makes no sense that ND fell 12 spots where u have Ole miss and Bama who got smoked. We lost by 2 to a good team on the road who had 16 days to prep for us.

Don't understand how anyone can keep Ohio state #1. Top 5, sure. Not #1 though.


They looked weak early last season as well, even losing to VT. But they went on to win it all.

I still have them @ #1 in my book. No one else has been a dominating force and a clear cut #1. I think LSU probably has the best resume at this point, and I almost put them @ #1, but nah...Not yet...

There is nothing I would like more than to meet with your fine team in a playoff game. :yo:

OT: Chris Low is an ignorant cocksucker.

Im not a fan of OSU being #1. They have one of the weakest schedules in college football and almost lost 2-3 games already but like the saying goes u have to beat the champ to be #1. They haven't lost so I understand it. In my opinion I have them at #3 if they didn't win it last year.

They haven't played like a #1 team this year. I think once they play some good teams they might be in trouble.

They didn't play like the #1 team last year until the end either.

"They aren't playing like the #1 team but I'm going to rank them #1 anyway"

seems legit.

Alabama lost by 6 after giving away 24 points on stupid mistakes, and then having fluke scoring plays put on them and still dropped like 10 spots.

You sound bitter.

Nope not bitter just stating facts. It was still a blow out for Bama and the team that beat them just got blow out by another team . The good news is this poll means crap. ND should be in the 10-12 spots. I know its only a 3-5 spot difference but it makes a difference.

Makes a difference why?

I don't even care about Alabama's ranking except to think people are dumb. If Alabama wins out, we go to the playoffs most likely.

The way I feel about it is if you lose, then you lost control of your destiny and you just have to hope others give it back to you. Seems like that's where ND is now.

Well, no, it makes really no difference whatsoever. These are polls for the sake of polls. :noidea:

Just curious if both Bama and Ole Miss wins out, who wins the SEC West?

I agree with bama if they win out. Makes a difference because now we need 2-4 more teams to slip up. I do feel 11-1 ND team should make it. the 1 loss would be on the road against a Top team with a back up QB and a team that had 16 days to prep for ND. I feel good about going 11-1 and making it but we do need some help on the way.

Ole Miss wins by tiebreaker.

Alabama doesn't 100% control it's destiny yet, but Ole Miss losing to Florida was a huge step and the way Ole Miss looked gives pretty good hope they will lose again.

LSU still has to play both Alabama and Ole Miss.

Also Texas A&M is still in the mix and still has to play LSU, Alabama and Ole Miss.

Thanks, I thought it was the tiebreaker. Yeah there is still a ways to go for each team.

Kentucky impressed voters with an interstate overtime battle with, ahem, eastern Kentucky to the tune of 6 votes. WTF!!!
