I think UGA beats UF. Maybe that puts AU back in the top 10, a team that Bama will also play..

But it's very possible by game-time of LSU\Bama, that neither will have a win vs. a top 10 team.

ETA: WOW @ the LSU fans who still count Texas as a top 10 win in this thread... Do you seriously think that your wins count at the time they were ranked instead of where they currently at? According to this thread, it appears so.

When you beat a team they tend to drop in rank. If they had played Bama’s schedule they’d be top 4 going into the game next week.

I hope so

If UGA beats UF this means we're not good anymore.

Still counts as a top 10 win. You can’t change that to fit your narrative.

No. And After Auburn beats Alabama too, we may not have any if they lose to Georgia

This is what Bama fans have been trying to explain to everyone for years!

It does??

Damn.. That Bama win vs. #3 FSU a couple years ago is nice.. I mean, it still counts as a top 3 win, right?

Wha? Everyone gets that when the Gumps beat their typical #128th ranked team that they drop to #135. They don't have to explain shite.

We talking this year or 3 years ago? Please make some sense.

So you are saying that the way we count ranked wins changes year by year?

Whatever dude.. You just lost that argument and have nothing else to say. No one else agrees with you about your ranked wins.

How can I lose an argument when you have none? You are comparing previous years to this year. Makes no sense. If you want to count a top 3 win from 3 years ago, go for it. Makes no difference to me.

I'm saying that it wasn't counted as a top 3 win three years ago.. Geez.. Use your brain... Why would anyone count a win from three years ago on this seasons SOS?

Alabama 2017 sports reference

Looks like it counted to me. And yes, I’ve spent way too much time on this dumb thread. Notice the number 3 by Florida State.

Hey, Dumbass...since the beginning of time, if you beat a Top 10 team, it's considered to have been a Top 10 win throughout the season. It's not rocket science. But I understand that you don't know anything about playing a Top 10 team until now. I'm glad I could help.

You just keep digging yourself into a deeper hole here. He's got you. Just give up.

No one, including the College Football Playoff committee, counts wins vs. ranked teams at the time of the game. They go by what they are currently ranked, not by what they were ranked at the time of the game.

One constant in the group's ranking rationale has been the number of CFP-ranked opponents a team beats, so it's worth watching to see if squads such as Texas A&M (which lost to Clemson) and Virginia (which lost to Notre Dame) can finish ranked.

Give it up man. I've tried to explain to these third world level mathematicians that:

1) When Texas finishes 5th or 6th in the Big 12, they really should not be dick riding that
win as some kind of huge accomplishment. You scheduled a "Blue Blood" that was an
also ran in a shite conference. Congrats

2) Bama and L8U play the same SEC West opponents, home and away differs, but
superior teams/ programs consistently win divisional road games.

3) The permanemt cross divisional rivals are really the only difference in the schedule,
and L8U bitches about having to play Florida every fricking year. WTF has UF done
since 2008? Yet L8U acts like Urban Meyer is still on the sidelines.
