Gotta make room for those 1 loss SEC teams bro.

Just accept it.

Or go up to Bristol and do something foolish....your call.

wisky losing a close game to another ranked team > michigan needing a last second missed play in the end zone to win against akron every day of the week. :L

I'll be dropping them more than 4 in my poll!

I bought into the Wolverines this year, but I was wrong.

Have to agree with John on this one. Yes, the team played a bad game, however they won. All teams are entitled to a bad game...even Alabama who wasn't that hot 2 weeks ago; yet they are still number 1....and, IMO, deserve to be there.

Florida mops floor with mighty Toledo 24-6, then loses to meh Miami...and still remains in the top 25.

I'd say the man has a valid point.

Polls are based on not only what a team does but a significant amount of perception gleaned by what those teams do, how they do it, and who they do it to.

Polls suck basically. Everyone loves them when they favor their team and hates them when they don't.

It's early still and there is time for Michigan to regain the pollsters trust. If thats something you really put any value in.


The seasons not over.

really?
washington beat illinois and moves 2 spots up.
notre dame beats purdue by the same score and drops

and i really dont get how a team that wins is tied for the biggest drop in the poll

This week, I wish I could make a thread about Nebraska winning and be hammered by other posters. Instead, I only get to be hammered by other posters that are laughing too hard.

Fine. You're right.

Your season is over.


Take up knitting in the off season.

Seriously, I don't get why people are whining about some pretty meaningless polls at this stage of the game. Just keep winning and things will shake out. It's way too early to get uptight about whether your team ought to be 2-3 spots higher in the polls.

Who cares? Polls only matter for teams #1 and #2. Win the conference, and you'll go to the Rose Bowl.

I actually thought they'd drop a couple more spots. Its only September and polls are basically meaningless unless you're a national contender.
