LOL 2 uncfan103 having Northwestern @ 20th when Nebraska beat them in their own house 8 days ago.

Not only did he not rank Nebraska, he doesn't even give them "Just Missed" status.

Unintentional, i thought i had Nebraska ranked. Ill fix it in just a second. I thought i had them like one or two behind Louisville.

 

[Red_Alert]

Hard to rank them ahead of UCLA tho.

Just saying NW? smh

What do you guys think about Nate's poll?

It has 4 MAC teams in top 25, has Oregon at 7, has Texas A&M, Stanford, and most noticeable Oregon State unranked. The guy clearly has an anti-Pac12 bias in his poll.


I debating not counting it due to how out of line he is with the two Oregon teams.

I can see Oregon being at 6 because of who they have played, but you would think he would put Alabama lower too considering their schedule is just as weak. Oregon State i can kind of understanding being ranked low, but having Kent State ranked 16th even though they got demolished by Kentucky and not having Oregon State doesnt make much sense. (One has played a tougher schedule and lost to a much better team).

But i dont care if you use it or not, if he can defend his poll and give his reasoning then i don't really mind. He is just exaggerating based on who he thinks is over/underrated i think.

He's always been on an anti-PAC crusade and especially Oregon. I'm thinking some Oregon girl turned his lover straight. Only logical explanation.

 

[yeodonie]

by the way I'd have tOSU at #6 if I could. Did we decide not to rank them?

 

[Tubbs1518]

It was decided long ago to rank them.

Its just whatever you want. If you think they should be ranked then rank them. A few people just said they would not be voting for them, which is why they were like 18th in the last poll

 

[yeodonie]

Okay, I'll submit another poll with tOSU in it.

 

[romeo212000]

I'm not including them in my poll. Neither are others.

 

[Volbound1700]

The Ohio State question hasn't been addressed.

 

[Red_Alert]

LOL

romeo did you lose an avy bet?

 

[Nate]

1. Oregon hasn't played anybody worth a damn.

2. Chip Kelly is a doosh who runs up the score on inferior opponents.

3. Oregon's schedule is worse than Boise's.

4. Alabama won the NC last year. They have looked good thus far this year. I have no reason to doubt there talent, this year, as of now.

5. Oregon State was God awful, last year. They have gotten very lucky to be doing this well. They proved last night how overrated they are.

6. USC proved to be suckish. How do you lose to Arizona? Arizona is horrible.

7. I have 4 MAC teams ranked because I don't see anybody else worth ranking.

8. The PAC-12 is probably the worst AQ conference this year behind the B1G.
a. Stanford almost lost to San Jose State.
b. UCLA lost to Cal. Freaking Cal!
c. Cal. Nothing needs to be said.
d. Colorado? Worst team in FBS.
e. Utah lost to Utah State.
f. Washington State lost to Colorado!
g. Arizona State lost to Missouri.

They keep winning; one of the few teams that lost the opener and haven't lost since. The majority of the teams they jumped lost, and it's hard to reward someone for losing.

Count it. It's an opinion poll and it shouldn't matter how much you agree or disagree with it. You can argue with him all you want over it, but it should still count. We have to keep our voter rights intact!!!!!!!
