I've been thinking about what RA said and I think he might be right.

3 little bitches lost ahead of us, and now those 3 bitches have 2 losses a piece.

They should fall behind us, including Ole Miss.

I'm gonna say we're #12.

But in reality, who cares? It's not like we are poised to win it all this year. Close, but not yet.

Basically I think they're ranking based on % chance they see of a team making it, rather than who they think is better than who.

Because let's be honest......the rest of the country doesn't believe Nebraska is better than Ole Miss.

It's pretty obvious to me they're ranking with number of losses as their priority. At least in their first poll anyway.

I don't believe Nebraska is better than Ole Miss either. However I've got nothing to prove it. There's nothing to say that two loss LSU. Ole Miss or Oklahoma are better than Nebraska.

If Nebraska loses to Wisconsin you could say that LSU is better than Nebraska. But if both teams have beaten Wisconsin you have to give the nod to the one loss team over a two loss team.

When it comes to undefeated, one, and two loss teams, all we can say right now is that Oregon and Michigan St are better than Nebraska.

Nebraska is at the bottom of the one loss teams (other than Duke) because of their struggle with McNeese St. It wasn't a loss though and can't be treated as one.

two losses is two losses. You didn't do what you were supposed to do twice.

lol 2 Ole Miss staying ahead of us.

If you're going to drop a team that far because they have 2 losses, do yourself a favor and drop them behind the other couple one-loss teams.

That is just silly to leave them off right there at #11.

Play a real schedule and beat real teams and then you get ranked higher.

The head scratcher is why LSU isn't ahead of them? They both have 2 losses and LSU won the Head-to-Head.

Put LSU 12 and Ole Miss 13 if you want your ranking to look legit.

SEC is just seriously not that good this year.

It is a fact. Nobody will know it until Oregon fuckin kicks the shit out of them in the playoffs.
