Putting The Win and Potential Rankings....

[usfgrad84]

...into perspective.

Most likely Cal ends up at number three.  BC probably just ahead of or behind us.  All teams have a win like we did today.  beating FAU by 12 is no worse than BC beating 1AA Mass by only ten last week and no worse than Cal beating 0-5 Colorado State by only 6.  We have 2 very high quality wins. 

We should move up.

Cal will be #2. Ohio State will go to #3. I wouldn't be surprised if BC jumps us to go to #4.

USC's loss to Stanford sure makes a 12-point win look mighty nice right now...

And really, BC barely beating UMASS is a great point. Every team has games that they win that they should've won by more in...

Hopefully we don't fall below Oklahoma or South Carolina. BC wouldn't really infuriate me...

1. LSU

2. Cal

3. Ohio State

4. BC

5. USF ?

6. Oklahoma

7. South Carolina

Look OK for a top 7?

as bad as our win looked, at least we got a win. this year in college ball, it seems any time a team looks past another team, they get beat, and to come out with a W is pretty **** impressive. so i don't think we'll fall much at all, now. thank you, USC!

Looks in line to me..

I don't see where BC deserves to be ahead of us.  Where are there quality wins? 

Wake  3-2

NC State 1-5

Georgia Tech 3-3

Army 3-3

UMASS 1 AA Team

Bowling Green 3-2

None of those wins compare to Auburn or WVU.

So you think USF in #4?

I completely agree with you. I would personally put us above Ohio St too, but I was just figuring to predict, not actually say where we belong...

BC has looked more impressive in general, especially on offense, and having a Heisman candidate at QB is always going to get you more attention to the pollsters. plus, we struggled against FAU and they destroyed Bowling Green, who most voters would look at as near equals, so who looked better?

Good thought.
