I expect USF will be closer to #25, but still not in it. The offense deserves it, clearly... but the defense... oh that defense... that is what is keeping USF out.

The people who rank teams more than likely take 3 or 5 minutes to look at the box score and make a ranking decision. Since the defense has its issues the margin of victory has not been good this year. USF is forced to out score teams rather than stop teams from scoring. If USF was able to stop teams from scoring, the "Style Points" votes would kick in and get USF in the top 25. Until that time USF can probably go 10-2 and not be ranked especially if SMU and UCF put up above average point totals against USF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
