Texas A&M will move up, YES, MOVE UP into the top 25 for me even after a loss. That may be the toughest game Clemson has all year.

That's not how it works. Losers don't get rewarded.

When is being ranked about rewards? It's about where the teams belong based on how good they are.

I thought MSU should have started higher than 18 in the polls. That’s a talented team.

They are plenty of good teams.

Houston should be in the top 25. They're better than Texas A&M. And no blemishes on their record. Took me like 5 seconds to do that.

I didn't put Arizona State in here because they had a HUGE home advantage against Michigan State. Hard to win when you are playing at midnight-1 a.m. your time in 90 degree heat.

Same. I’ll work ASU in there if another team deserves to drop out next week, wasn’t ready to drop MSU and add ASU based on that game though. Crazy shit happens in the desert. Big win for ASU though.

I moved MSU out not because they lost to ASU but because they lost to ASU AND needed a late TD to beat Utah St at home. Polls are tough this time of year because we dont actially lnow what's a good win or a bad loss. Were just guessing really. Like lots of people moved VT way up based on winning in Tallahassee but that win looks far less impressive now. Things should clear up by week 6 or 7

@Across The Field doesn't include ND in his top 25 but has Michigan 12th? Lol. We certainly might not be a top 25 team, but to have a team we handled pretty easily at 12 is somewhat interesting.
