If we're going to stupidly insist that we rank teams after 1 freakin week, how does anyone justify putting FSU at #1 over A&M?

Because polls are based on last season's success and predictability.

To admit that they were wrong about A&M would be blasphemy.



Plus Bama gon' beat em.

all subjective at this point. We don't know truly how good SCe is, nor how good OSU is. Because of that, you have to take a step back and look at the talent assembled on each roster. A&M is not number 1 in that department

Do these polls even matter any more? Maybe I am just confused, but I thought the committee was going to select 4 teams independent of the coaches and ap poll

are they totally incompetent or did A&M make them look incompetent?

I thought Georgia looked fantastic as well. Athletes all over the field.

Because we have no idea if SCAR is good or not.

I'm high on A&M, but Kenny Hill will probably have a bad game or 3 this season, and many or most or all of his good games likely won't be like the first one.

Georgia looked more impressive. A&M's defense while improved still looked suspect.

Georgia is the #1 team in the country if we're keeping it real.

Honestly I don't think anyone deserves to be 1 after this week, but FSU gets it by default. I think rankings before week 4 are a little overrated

Because last season matters to the polls.

I agree.
Not to take away anything from UGA., but they are getting a lot of publicity on the win over Clemson.
aTm's win was more dominant and over a higher quality opponent.

Not sure why there isn't a gush over aTm like there is over UGA right now.

I'd have A&M above all other SEC schools with the exception of Georgia. I think those 2 will see each other in ATL.
