So you beat the team you played by thirty plus points, but because you played walkons and the third string basically the entire second half, they drop you in the polls? Makes sense.
It's because the team you beat to propel you into the top 20, doesn't appear to actually be that good combined with the fact you played a nobody.

But it makes no sense to drop someone unless someone else proved better. It would be interesting to see which ranked teams threw the kitchen sink at their opponent and which ones played a heavy rotation of 2nd and 3rd stringers once the game was in hand. I saw at least two SEC teams that did the latter, while some ranked teams kept their first string in just to run up the score and "look better".
