At best one of those will be top 10 tomorrow and it's the one you lost

I hate when people use "time of game" rankings. It's intentionally being misleading.
What an opposing team does after we play them isn’t really our business. We can’t control that. But if we set off the chain of events that leads to them melting down…I can accept that.

No matter who you play in the SEC, being 5-0 in the conference is quite an accomplishment.

Well done Ags. Have not watched you much this year, but Elko’s adjustments last night were masterful. Like that dude and he will do well there.

Sure but don't pretend they are a top ten team when they were.

As an example, beating FSU probably looked impressive in August, but now we know how dumb it would look to brag "we beat a top ten team!"

Texas beat them by 22… A&M beat them by 10.

You lost to a bad notre dame team that lost to a directional junior college from illinois.

And you lost to a Bama team that has 2 losses (100% more than Notre Dame) and counting, with one of those being Vandy.

Then why have rankings in the first place? If you play a team ranked higher than you and win, they’re going to fall. Maybe that loss catapults them to future losses. That shouldn’t be some kind of indictment on the lower ranked team that won.
