Kentucky dropping out of the rankings when they were #24 and beating SC on the road.

Beating us means literally nothing, and the fact it took a double-digit second half comeback and a 2-point conversion in OT to beat us should be enough answer for anyone questioning that.

To those involved in this decision:

Sounds like you're the one that needs to cope.

Weird flex. I thought we were overrated after last week's win over USA. But winning this week, I would've put us at where we were at. BTW, we actually gained 10 votes, so your thread is a dud. It's just the other teams behind us jumped us.

It was a chicken shite vote. The AP got their butts hurt by Pitt calling them out and knew if LSU wins Saturday it will be forgotten. If KY wins, they'll be back in the top 20.

There is only one poll that matters, and there is a reason it waits for the first seeding. Early polls are simply to drum up clicks and TV ratings and drive storylines.

Well, when you lose to LSU it will all be a moot point anyway. I'm just having fun.

Exactly. Another fair-weather “fan” who can’t give credit where credit is due. Kentucky deserved the win. They fought until the end, on the road, and for the pollsters to drop them is ridiculous.

I am this way because I am not a fair-weather fan as you state. But I guess you cannot comprehend basic deductive reasoning.

I have my degree from USC, do you? I am from Columbia and have also been a fan my entire life and will continue being a fan. The Administration doesn't give a shite about fans, so I am actively not giving a shite right now, as is my right.

I’m as impressed with your online credentials as I am with your fair-weather comment. That is to say, if you can comprehend it, that I’m not in the least bit convinced of anything you have to say.
