The on-field resume in which his team has 2 losses AT HOME, with the "highlight victory" being a 3-point win over inconsistent-as-hell, 3-loss Ole Miss?
Thats it. You have literally not beaten anyone else. Your other in-conference victory came against an Arkansas team that is now getting curb-stomped by everyone they play; yet you somehow managed to let them drop 30+ on you. By the way; Arkansas' 33 points in that game is their second highest all year, second only to the 34 points they scored against Louisiana-Lafayette. They scored less points against Samford, and winless Southern Miss.
Like I said: the resume is that of a fringe Top 25 team. Yet the marketability/media hype of Manziel is earning you a hilariously inflated "ranking".
All of this is fine and dandy, and if you didn't lose to LSU people might rank you higher. Other than that most people see Manziel and know he makes A&M capable of winning any game they play against any team they play. Auburn isn't. Auburn isn't capable of beating as many teams as Texas A&M.

Almost as ridiculous as A&M being ahead of Auburn.
Auburn lost to LSU.

How in the HELL does a team get taken behind the woodshed AT HOME and lose by fricking what...6 TDs? And only drops 7 places? Bullcrap...they are not top ten and have no defense.

fricking bullshite. bullshite I tell you. We're 5-1 with wins over Louisville and Penn State on the road and a 3 point loss to South Carolina. We should at least be 7 spots ahead

his TEAM has shown to date. Most notably; 1) a lack of significant wins, and 2) two in-conference losses on home-field.
No one denies the team has flaws.
It's just that against most teams, JFF's brilliance outweighs them.

The computers like us more than the polls. It's alright. The schedule sets up nicely from here on out.

He can beat up scrubs with the best of them. His 1-4 record against ranked SEC teams tells a different story. And all four losses were at home.

I agree. UCF should be higher than 25 - Bortles is awesome and is doing some good things with that team.

Surprised we are ahead of Auburn. Shocked actually. We blew a 3 touchdown lead at home in a matter of minutes.

Surely you aren't this stupid to try and compare the two situations.
