I thought Bob Stoops singlehandedly shut you up.
Ehhhhhhhhh, no. I have a hard time being upset about a loss that ultimately didn't matter. Once we weren't winning the title, the season was a bust no matter what. I mean it sucked, but it was a lot easier to get over than Kick Six.

I'd be ok holding off on any rankings until October 1.
In many instances, weeks 1-3 tell us little.
This Coaches Poll means zilch now. It's just for fun.

Then you should want rankings to come out at Halloween.

Of course you are.
You've been reading this board for months.
Going by the SECr brain-trust, we'll never win another game.
Don't forget: We had a few players drafted.

The first time we haven't been ranked in it since 90.

Where do you think Alabama should be ranked? I think we're too high as well, but where would you suggest putting Bama? Anything lower than top 5 just isn't fair to Saban.

Not sure about zilch (I think it carries some weight in the minds of the populace/future voters).
But I agree with your overall sentiment.

And a few more kicked off the team, which is why I am surprised they are ranked.

Don't you like bragging about the bowl winning percentage and all time bowl wins etc?
