Losing by 28 to unranked UL will probably keep us out of the top 20 even if we win out, but it seems the voters may like us enough to get 21-25 by seasons end.
We need to lose one more time so we can stop the top 25 discussion LOL. Seriously though, I don't think any of us in the SBC should be getting votes right now. CCU has no quality wins, CCU is our only quality win, we got blown out by UL who got blown out by unranked Texas, and we lost to a Miami team who is not even receiving votes at this point. UTSA has a weak schedule so far and probably should be receiving a few votes but not actually ranked. If they make it to 10-0 then I would say throw them a bone but I still don't think they are one of the 25 best in the nation. No way UTSA would beat Texas, Miami, App, Pitt, Clemson, Arkansas, etc. type teams.
Dude, you gotta find 25 you like somewhere.AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 24, 2021 8:27 pmWe need to lose one more time so we can stop the top 25 discussion LOL.

I also don't think 12 G5 teams should be getting votes at this point. As of now, I would drop BYU, CCU, SDSU, and UTSA for Arkansas, NC State, Virginia, and either Arizona State or Texas in at 25. I do think those G5s are not far off from them but I feel like we need more resume to see who deserves it and I don't believe that the G5 teams should make up 1/5 of the top 25.
I would think people would pay even less attention to these polls after a voter put CCU at #8 after he had them #9 last week. I know it was an error but a mod should have caught it and asked or he should be double checking his ballot to make sure. The fact he does not take his vote that seriously tells me perhaps he should have his vote revoked. AP mods need to do a better job of checking ballots to make sure errors that look goofy like that don't happen.
A lot of teams in the polls around us are playing other schools who are on there as well so it will be interesting to see results this week. I'm intrigued to see how they look in 3 weeks or so when I feel like we should have enough of an idea on the G5s to know who is for real.
Exactly, you can probably go through all of them including also received votes and compare different teams and come up with a reason why one should be higher/lower than the other. But at the end of the day you gotta put the list out. If a team beats another team should they ALWAYS jump above them? what happens then when three teams play each other and each one wins one? who is best? you then have to look at the body of work and it IS subjective.mike87 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 25, 2021 7:11 amDude, you gotta find 25 you like somewhere.AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 24, 2021 8:27 pmWe need to lose one more time so we can stop the top 25 discussion LOL.

Agree.bigdaddyg wrote: ↑Mon Oct 25, 2021 10:17 amIt will be very interesting to see what the committee does with Cincinnati. The easy route for them would be to initially put them at 3 or 4 then make some lame excuse to drop them to 5 at the end- “well they were very good but their schedule dropped off at the end”
Don’t they have two ranked (for now) teams left on the schedule? If those teams stay ranked until they play, I just can’t see the justification for leaving them out.bigdaddyg wrote: ↑Mon Oct 25, 2021 10:17 amIt will be very interesting to see what the committee does with Cincinnati.

You love Coastal for some reason obvious for the last couple of weeks. They don't belong in top 25, unless being undefeated is a must. They've played a bad schedule, and lost to APP to boot. Eyeball test for me is they have a gimmick offense and are on par with Marshall. Like APP, Coastal probably won't lose again playing the bottom half of our conference.appgrad95&97 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 25, 2021 10:43 amIt would be a ton of fun if there was a Yosef's Cabin top 25. Have us all vote every Sunday and see what that looks like. I'd have Coastal in my top 25 and Lousiana very close.
