My gawd, folks, calm down.

The RPI of our first three opponents stands at 161, 104, and 94

We have proven NOTHING, and we should not be ranked.

Even beating FSU doesn't mean that much unless FSU pulls their collective heads out of their butts and finishes strong.

Our next three opponents are 8, 70, and 66

Like JTrue says, start complaining if we hit 6-0 and are still unranked

 

Beating FSU doesn't mean much? They are a top 15 team anyway you want to slice it

Look at you with your logic.

He's been off the grid. He doesn't know this has become a "logic free" zone.

It would have been obvious to the voters, IF we had won our bowl game. Then we would have been given the benefit of the doubt, in the early polls.

It should be obvious to the voters, IF we beat FSU on national TV.

So, I agree with your point.

 

 

 

 

I tried to Rec this but the bossman said I'm all out of recs for today :facepalm:

And a team with wins over a 1-2 FCS team, an 0-3 MAC team, and a 1-2 ACC team that's likely the worst in the conference is one of those 25?

2 posts ago, I said it's not even about the Bulls being ranked or not. I actually believe SDSU is getting more shafted than us right now by not being ranked. 

I'm just tired of teams that are 1-2 getting in. Even LSU looks like trash still. USF definitely beats them I think. But hey, everybody has opinions. I think Joey Knight nailed his rankings if you just add SDSU

They barely survived an Appy State team that Miami crushed (in Boone), 45-10.  Over rated Tenn v UF...someone has to lose. 

Tennessee did crush Virginia Tech, you can't just ignore that. I don't think they're as good as the hype (top 10), but they're still a pretty good team that hasn't lost since last October.

There is no set of set of rules when it comes to how to rank teams. Early pollsters take the schedule into account, because truthfully week 3 polls mean ****.

Come November this might be a legitimate gripe, now? Nah.

I've always thought CBS ran the most intelligent poll.
