We did have 450+ yards before the 4th quarter began, just sayin



Tennessee has been losing by 10+ points in 5/6 games this year, including one former FCS school. The 6th game TN was up only 2 points on a 4 TD underdog.


If anything, they are lucky to crack the top 5 of the SEC power rankings

Switch Mississippi State with Kentucky and Florida with Georgia, the rest I agree with.

I know it's not consolation, but there were voters who put Tennessee above A&M this week. They felt that given it was a road game, and how Tennessee performed, they were the slightly better team. It was discussed in great detail among the voters.

With the way we vote and rank, I think our voters do a good job and the rankings are solid.




I think it's fair to not punish Tennessee for the way the game played out on Saturday and agree with their 3rd place. However, to rank them above an undefeated A&M who also has a win over Tennessee is asinine.

Turnovers are a part of the game, just like missed field goals, missed tackles, illegal men down field & fumbling through the end zone. UT shouldn't be given special treatment because A&M took advantage of their mistakes. JMO

Most voters agreed with you. Because of the sample size, it's difficult for 1 or 2 outlying votes to affect overall placement. When we analyzed the results, A&M was clearly 2nd, and Tennessee was clearly 3rd. The other team that affected votes was Ole Miss, who received votes from 2-5.

Can we get a High, Low, Mean, Median, and Mode in lieu of the graph?

I updated the OP with the raw data graph. It's not the easiest to read, but should give you some of the info you're looking for.

Lol @ UF moving down 2 spots to be below LSU when neither team played. This poll is showing some bias this week in that regard.

So A&M has 1 first place vote, a bunch of 2nd place votes... and a 4th place vote?

Not necessarily. The middle is SO closely bunched together. In reviewing the individual votes, I didn't note any bias by any specific individuals. Auburn jumped up based on their performance, and things just sort of fell in line after that move. LSU and Florida were basically tied, they were so close. Once they reschedule that game and it's played, all doubt will be removed.

Yes. But again, it didn't change the overall rank. A&M was solidly 2nd.
