Well if you ask @Across The Field, Michigan should be ranked bc of a win they had in 2013.Yeah I don't get the whole ranking of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Miami and then bitching about A&M being ranked.

And people only assume VT is good because they beat FSU. We see now how impressive that really was.
One of the major issues with early polls is we doht actially lnow what is a good win or a bad loss and by the time we figure out we were wrong everyone has forgotten about the game.
I dont have Iowa any higher than a lot of the posters here and yes iowa bas 2 wins better than anyone VT has beaten . You'll see this week when NIU goes to Tallahassee and does the same thing you guys didSays the guy who keeps ranking Iowa high after all those noteworthy wins they've racked up?
Wait, are we not pretending Iowa isn't elite anymore?Says the guy who keeps ranking Iowa high after all those noteworthy wins they've racked up?
Wisconsin has also won 4 straight bowl games against ranked OOC opponents while also claiming a top 15 OOC win during the regular season in 2016. Washington, on the other hand, hasn't done either of these things in 8 years, so your comparison is shit and you're ill-informed.Wisconsin doesn’t get the benefit of shit. They have to be the only relevant P5 team who has a worse schedule than Washington over the last few years. BYU sucked ass last year, and doesn’t look too much better this year, unless you insist on giving Wisconsin the benefit of the doubt and pretending they’re good.
I get it was a big upset, I do. They were also a top 5 team and toppled 10+ spots in both polls. I think that's fair. We'll see what BYU does. Fact is, they've been a solid program for years now. It's not like Wisconsin was upset by Tulane or something. Wisconsin has one of the top RBs, top OLs, and a really good defense. They're a top 25 team, despite one bad game.Wisconsin was like a 25 pt favorite. That's a huge upset and pretty inexcusable. If BYU hadn't looked completely mediocre their first two games of the year, I wouldn't have this stance, but they have looked bad.
Clemson is better than ND. The rest of both schedules are awful. I'm not sure what going to 4 straight bowl games has to do with this season?
I troll Nebby way more than Aggy. Get your story straight....

Clemson is better than ND, but I'm not sure by much with their offensive problems. They were extremely lucky to have been playing a horrible mid-major this last Saturday and not a team with a decent offense or they would've had a hole to dig themselves out of. Georgia Southern had one of the worst defenses in the entire FBS last year and Clemson struggled mightily until nearly halfway through the 2nd quarter to score.
Saying they deserve to be ranked =/= hyping them. Also, while you might not be impressed with Wisconsin, just know Washington doesn't even remotely compare to them for pretty much the last 25+ years.No one seems all that impressed. Keep trying to hype all your conference rivals though, from what I’ve seen across a few threads it seems to be working.
I'll give them credit for at least being 2-1 against 3 P5 opponents thusfar. To be fair, that's better than the majority of what the top 25 has done to this point.I get that byu has been a consistently good program. But they weren't last year and looked extremely mediocre against cal and Arizona. I'm not sure how good the Wisconsin defense is when you give up almost 7 yards a carry and 24 points to this byu team. And sure they were supposed to have a good O-line this year, but that didn't stop the coaching staff from putting in the backups.
Clemson is way better than ND. If we scored 10 points against Clemson I'd be surprised. I think Va Tech is going to roll us in a couple weeks.
I get it, every topic can be about some B1G team being worthy of some ranking because of the last year, or 4, or 25+. You’ve been heard.Saying they deserve to be ranked =/= hyping them.

lol, so I rank two B1G teams that are also ranked in the actual polls and you go off the deep end. Good lord. FYI - I have Wisconsin lower than both the AP and Coach's Poll, so reign it back in a bit.I get it, every topic can be about some B1G team being worthy of some ranking because of the last year, or 4, or 25+.

For the past decade, VT has been significantly more overrated than Iowa. That is a fact.Says the guy who keeps ranking Iowa high after all those noteworthy wins they've racked up? Or is it bc of how well Iowa has recruited? Or their crack coaching staff?
That ain't a very high standard.lol, so I rank two B1G teams that are also ranked in the actual polls and you go off the deep end. Good lord. FYI - I have Wisconsin lower than both the AP and Coach's Poll, so reign it back in a bit.
Because we are playing Alabama this week.Not trolling, just asking. I didn’t know you get put in the top 25 for barely losing.
