That defense for the #11 team...good luck with that.


Wish Texas luck in recruiting as well! So dang low.

Yep, not surprised. The media has always overrated Texas in the polld. But to go from unranked to number 11 in an overtime win over the 10th ranked team is an absolute joke. Imo coaches poll is a much better poll because of less media bias.

I'm just glad they didn't gift us the spot of the team we just beat this year like they did in 2014 (moved us to #9 to replace South Carolina) and 2015 (moved us to #16 to replace Arizona State)

2. Clemson
Of course Clemson is still 2.

6. Houston
This team is really getting going now. Liking what I'm seeing from them.
quote:

9. UGA
Why did Georgia move up so drastically?
quote:

10. Wisconsin
Wow. Wisconsin team is really ranked this high?
quote:

11. Texas
Same reaction as #10. Should not have jumped this high just from one game.
quote:

17. Tennessee
So Tennessee can barely squeak a win by an FCS school and fall so far, but TCU can do it and drop by only two?
quote:

19. Ole Miss
20. Texas A&M
21. LSU
These are about right.
quote:

22. Oklahoma State
Why would Oklahoma State drop? 61-7 warrants a drop of any kind?
quote:

25. Miami
*checks list again* Florida's...unranked?

Possibly. I will hold off until I can make an educated guess.

I mean, we can be upset about them putting Wisconsin so high and dropping us that low at the same time, but let's face the facts. There is a very good chance this LSU team won't be in the top 25 when the season is over anyways.

25 and 26 should be off the board. I thought we're supposed to punish programs that schedule shite/look like shite. Just schedule Florida A&M your first game and you can be ranked.

How many coaches voting actually watch the games though?

Tennessee's 8 spot drop after a win is the most since 1989

Washington is legit. They have the best team in the PAC12 by a good bit.

Because Oklahoma State has ZERO media hype machine.

The only poll that matters comes out after week 7 I believe, this is just good for fodder. As a UGA fan in no way do I think the dawgs are the 9th best team in the land, get back to me at the end of the month after they travel to Columbia and Oxford.

Right. A&M went from #21 to #9 after beating the #9 team in the country and also got 2 first place votes. Must have been a conspiracy.
