The one I looked at said TN #21 and had FSU above UGA. That can't be right.

Getting a job is about who you know and basketball is about who you play. Just the way it is.

Bama is 8-5 and unranked by the poll but ranked #5 in the NCAA NET rankings, which is a more thorough and accurate snapshot of a team’s record and strength. Takes into account the quality of opponents, where a game is played, etc. Tennessee is #7 in NET. Ole Miss is #60, btw. Doesn’t matter much on January 2nd anyway.

Basketball rewards strength of schedule. Football punishes it.

Doesn’t really matter at this point in the season, but we’ll get to see what OM and VOLS have in a few days.

Tennessee has played the #1, #2, #8, #9 & #21 ranked teams before conference play kicked off. All of those being Quad 1 teams. As well as Syracuse & NC State which are Quad 2.

Ole Miss has played 1 Quad 1 team and 2 quad 2 teams with Memphis being the only ranked win. In football terms, you've played a Division 3 junior college schedule and the committee is letting you know it via your ranking.
