Does anyone think that those who are voting do not realize that this team is 14-2 over the last 16 games (with a bowl win over an SEC opponent and we have almost everyone back) with our only 2 losses

Of course we want them to win. Any OOC victory by an AAC team helps the conference as a whole, and increases our SOS.

Why does what this team did last year with Mack, Adams, and a different head coach mean we should be ranked this year?

Its also a bit crazy some voters didn't even rank USF at all. Our Friday performance was very good. 

 

I hate to keep saying it, but style points matter!  If you watched ESPN or some of the other networks, the only mentions that USF got were for their insane number of penalties.  

For those that say wins are all that matters, then you should not concern yourselves with the polls.  However, with another G5 team nipping at our toes, it seems pretty clear that in the G5 world how you win is critical!

I certainly had predicted the outcome of this game wrong.  But, with good reason based upon the first two games of this season.  Our guys played with good intensity and enthusiasm on both sides of the ball.  That's a first for this year.  Let's hope it continues.  Less penalties and more discipline, though.  Manhandling a Big Ten team, even a lower tier one with just three days of focused practice now justifies our being ranked in my opinion.

The next few weeks will weed out the pretenders. So many teams are overrated and just waiting to fall. I thought we would take a big leap ahead this week with so many teams ahead of us losing, but the P5 bias rears its ugly head. Memphis and Houston should also be ranked.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
