re: How is Mississippi State not ranked In the new AP or coaches poll?

Not so much the Memphis loss.

That one got an official statement by the SEC stating that it was officiated incorrectly and the TD awarded on the punt return to Memphis should not have counted.

That's like saying Florida should not suffer because of their game with Samford. Memphis should never have been in the game if they (MState) are a top 15 team. You can't just ignore a poor performance,

All that said, once the Pirate gets all of his players and they develop some consistency, MState is going to be a handful for all but a couple of teams. They should scare anybody going into a game.
