Why did it change for the Bama and UT ranking?

FSU didn’t get skulldrug in any of their losses, didn’t have a really bad loss. LSU has a bad loss at a bad time. So it’s easy to put FSU ahead.

Oregon State and Oregon both got skulldrug once. All things being equal, head to head at the end of the season makes sense.

Then we come to the sad case of the stinking Vols. Who got ran out of the stadium by then 6-4 South Carolina. Who btw got dragged on their own field by Georgia and the week prior ran out of the swamp by then 5-4 Florida.

So you’ve got two very bad losses. The committee doesn’t think you’re better, the coaches don’t, and the writers don’t.

The coaches btw think Penn State with two pretty bad losses is better than you too.
