We would not have gotten in had we beat Troy. They got 28 votes last week, or something like that.

We could have gotten in with a little more discipline and focus.

Doubtful, I think it's more that Troy has only lost once. If we had beaten them we would have gotten more votes but probably not ranked.

Yeah, I agree. We would have gotten votes, but wouldn't be in. With Troy only having one loss and that being to Clemson (and Clemson is still a heck of a team, despite the one loss), it makes sense. We're a much tougher case with two losses now-unranked teams.

First Sun Belt team ever ranked. It is a great accomplishment, one I was hoping we achieved. I don't think we would have been ranked this week had we beaten Troy, but I do think that had we beaten Troy and won out that we would have been ranked in the final ranking which is a great way to end the year and give positive traction for the next season. When you finish a season ranked, it is that much easier to start the next season ranked.

Good for them. We are a field goal and 4th stop away from being ranked ourselves. Very slim margin for error.
