USF #16 in Coaches Poll | #12 in AP

[USFan]

My interpretation: the coaches think that our victory was an upset of Kansas; the better team didn't win. Otherwise, we'd be much higher.

Now, we have to play each week very well to prove that we are playing good football, i.e., style points.

Well, we only beat them by 3 points.

Two straight weekends of close games... I'll take #16.

Florida State at #25?

After two victories over 1AA schools?

I want to know how we drop when we beat UCF in OT but Auburn stays where they are when they only score 3 pts on a Miss St. team that lost to LA Tech.

Also, Notre Dame, 5 votes? Seriously?

It don't think it was the coaches' poll that dropped us after beating UCF. The AP dropped us two spots.

Correct. USF was unchanged in the coaches poll after beating UCF -- stayed at 18.  The KU win moved us up 2 spots.

just helps the hype machine for this week's matchup vs Wake Forest.

but i did watch their game on Saturday and the offense looks 100 X's better with Weatherford out of there.

I can't see how Auyburn is above us. A 1 point win over Mississippi State.

My interpretation, the coaches have no idea what actually happened over the weekend.   They had zero time to watch anything, as they were busy with their own teams.  We may see a late bounce next week.  Having coaches vote is really rather silly.

polls are fun to talk about in sept but really dont mean crap.

we control our own destiny.  just win and we move up.

If they are going to have coaches' vote then they should have equal representation from each conference to make it fair. The Big East is under represented and will always get the shaft. Plus, the voting should be made known each week, to show it is an open and above board process.
