That my friend, is your opinion. There isn't a clear, objective way to determine these things because of so many variables.. so not sure why you're being so definitive. But carry on..

Yea, in Farmers thread, it showed Auburn at 14. I would personally have you at 16, behind Florida and Miami.
Either way, it's all objective.

Alabama 1 or 2.

LSU, Georgia, Auburn, Florida, Tennessee- all top 12.

Tennessee was clear 2 in conference up till 2001 or so. Now it's close.

Auburns is 19th in wins, 20th in win%, 16th in total bowls made, tied for 6th in the SEC for conference championships, and 12th all time in national titles. How the frick could that possibly make them a top 15 program

Top 12 is a little high for them.
I would have UF at 15, and Auburn 16.

It is closer, but they are still clearly #2 in the SEC. IMO
If we play as well as we can this season, you could make a case for LSU to replace them.

you think because Arkansas beat Tennessee one year changes their rating? And you think Arkansas is gonna become some nationally recognized great school in one season?


Well, it certainly does help perception to win, much more than losing does.
You can't argue that Tennessee is a nationally recognized power, and then say that us going to their house and beating them doesn't change anything perception wise about either team.
No, we are not going to become a nationally recognized school, we already are. Just improving our standing.

Holy hell the delusion is strong with this one. Tennessee is a nationally recognized power because they had decades of success in continuation. Arkansas is no where close to the big six, let alone Tennessee which is easily inside the top 10. Yes yes I can say one win where Arkansas barely managed to not be as retarded as Butch Jones doesn't do squat to change perception of either team. If you think Arkansas is a national relevant school you're already too far gone to talk to. The ONLY reason they might even be on the precipice of it is because the conference they play in and piggybacking off others success.

By his logic, Wyoming is a national power because they beat Tennessee that one time

because they know that Bama/UT/UGA/UF/LSU are all in the top 15 and it burns them up to know they aren't in the same tier as the rest of us.
