Seriously that's such BS that they received votes but we didn't

Not sure why USF is not getting the respect they deserve. I'm shocked we are not in top 25

Because we are a group of 5 program.  The end.  Power 5 programs get the benefit of the doubt without even playing a game.  Group of 5 teams need to work 5x as hard to get ranked.

No they don't, nor do they care.  Not one of them thought about the fact USF beat Cincinnati 65-27 last time the 2 teams played.  All they see is the here and now and the fact UC beat a terrible Big 10 team.

Win and rankings take care of themselves. 

Cuse is not going to be a pushover

For Power 5 programs yes.  In fact, they don't even have to win to get ranked.  Just be a part of the power program, and you get benefit of doubt.  If USF wasn't playing FSU, we'd have to go 8-0 or 9-0 before we sniffed top 25.

Sweet, so we should go 11-1, I'll take it.

That's a big change from where Coach T was on the preseason show. Think we had a 49% chance back then.

Of course they did. That's how this backwards system works. Some of the losses were against good teams, but they're still losses.
