With clemson winning that's got to help in some way. We lost two games to respectable teams, I still think we deserve a spot.

Well given that 10 Top 25 teams lost yesterday, I could see Auburn finding a place in the 20s.

Y'all made Les quit.

No further season goals needed.

No. No way we deserve it either

If we can beat State then Arkansas, we will revisit



We have not done anything to deserve it

Nope. You barely beat a LesMiles-coached football team at home

Y'all are still terrible

Aubies tough on their team. I think so. The two losses are top 10 same as Ole Miss. Shouldn't count so much against them. With LSU winning, the computers will have them top 25. I know computer rankings aren't relevant anymore, but neither are polls, unless the committee references them. I think Auburn should be ranked somewhere between 22 to 25. Not saying they will be. I am saying that I think they are one of the 25 best teams this year.

Thanks for looking out for us and beating us to get Les Miles fired Auburn. I never properly thanked you guys yet, but I wanted to make sure I did it anyway. We now have hope again.

We haven't scored a TD against a decent opponent in 7 quarters. We will wait till we figure that out before we worry about rankings. Our SW brigade is hyped right now after we put it on LaMonroe.

Auburn is ranked #14-#17 in 4 of the 5 competer rankings.

The computers like Aggy and Clemson.

We don't deserve it? Seriously? You are saying there are definitely 25 teams that are just out right better than us. I don't buy that for one second. We have a solid defense and our offense is improving, not to mention our not-so-secret weapon of a kicker. No we aren't top 10 but 25? Yes. Take a look at the top 25. Can you honestly say all of those teams are better than us? If you can,you are delusional.

We have played 3 good teams. We lost to 2 of them and was one second away from losing to the other. All at home.

We do not deserve to be ranked. I know they were good teams but you have nothing to rank us on. Do we get ranked for beating 2 high school teams into submission?

Beat State and Arkansas then we can talk. We are a decent team. Just need a few good wins

here is what I like about computer rankings. They aren't biased. They don't care that Bama won it last year. If a computer thinks tOSU is the best, then they will rank them number 1. Humans tend to rank the defending champ. The computers have no problem ranking a two loss over an undefeated team, if undefeated hasn't played anybody. Humans almost never do that. The computers think Auburn is top 20 because they have close losses to undefeated top 10's, but humans might take the wait and see approach.

Your question was, "Does Auburn go Top 25?". We wont .

Do I think we are a top 25 team? Yes. But in order for us to get there, we are going to have to prove that we are so we can move up. We have not done that. We have not earned the right to get there


I can not comment on all the other teams that are there but we have not done a thing to actually earn our spot there. Or defense is good. Our special teams is very good. Our offense has struggled terribly against good teams. We have not earned it
