Then now ND loses another game, so Texas #11 maybe was hasty and without merit. It's a strong media bias that Texas beats ND and get a high ranking, Cal then beats Texas about the same exact situation but doesn't get ranked. I'm not arguing it makes sense, but I'm sure voters look at it the same way. We have no argument except for 3-0, big margins: we beat 1-2 FCS team, 0-3 NIU and 1-2 Cuse. But I'm not worried about early ranking...I'm craving end of year rankings, something that has evaded us forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But UF ranked is a joke..beat a bad FCS team in a semi close game, beat a pretty bad Kentucky team and the North Texas another horrible team. I hope TN rolls them.

Florida is horrible, but Tennessee is been the most unimpressive team imaginable to somehow stay rains. I wish we played those two teams because we'd win by at least 2 scores 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything will work itself out in a few weeks after the better teams start to rise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah your right, so many teams jumped to FCS it seems the last 4 or so years hard to keep track. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't think we should be in there yet. If we aren't top 25 after beating FSU, then I will be pretty angry. According to the recently released polls, even that is going to be a stretch. We received 7 entire votes. #25 OU has 139. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
