I'd have Toledo and Kentucky ahead of them.

We should've dropped twenty five places.

They may very well be at the end of the season. I think the polling reflects the uncertainty surrounding both teams and pollers are hesitant to say "its over" this early after all the preseason hype.

The next 2 weeks will determine their fate.

I don't put any value in the polls, but after the bull shite I saw around here for the last week about our schedule, it's my time.

I won't lie, I'm sure theres some SECSECSEC component, too. The pollsters always seem to set it up so the SEC can leapfrog one another and maintain poll prominence.

UT loses in overtime at home to Oklahoma and they're out of the top 25.

Auburn wins in overtime at home against Jacksonville State and they stay in.

I'm not sure how anyone can justify Auburn being ranked at all.


That's why these polls are stupid

That feel when the only teams you jump are SEC teams who also won.

AP likes clicks so they will forever put out a poll.

But there really shouldn't be polls anymore, especially coaches polls. Let the committee do it.

Wish they would just do away with preseason polls. We still don't know much about anybody yet.

Why did Arkansas get put out the top 25?

There's nothing wrong with losing at home to an unranked MAC team.

Haters wanting to pile on the SEC filled out that poll.

Exactly. If you're in the SEC and you keep winning, you will wind up where you belong in the polls.

So you beat the team you played by thirty plus points, but because you played walkons and the third string basically the entire second half, they drop you in the polls? Makes sense.


It's because the team you beat to propel you into the top 20, doesn't appear to actually be that good combined with the fact you played a nobody.

Last time LSU did this, they won the SEC and played in the Sugar Bowl. Granted that was 29 years ago, but there is still hope for tFlagship.

Who gives a shite about ranks anyways? If we did win the SEC we would deserve to go, and we would. We won't win the SEC, so we don't deserve to go anyways.. Ranks mean shite
