What's it going to take for USF to get ranked.  If you looked at all 3 polls from last week, there was a ton of 3 loss teams either ranked or receiving votes, some which I would consider lesser teams, for example Southern Miss, a 3 loss CUSA team got votes in the Harris.  3 loss teams like Hawaii, Tulsa, and a 4 loss Clemson got votes...I think USF gets some votes tomorrow but not ranked unless beating Pitt and/or Miami.  What do you think.

I see a handful of votes in the AP and under 5 in the coaches. I agree it will take a Pitt win or both A Pitt and Miami win to get into the top 25

Doesn't matter.

We've been ranked before in mid-season. The only rankings that matter this year will be the ones that come out AFTER we win our bowl game.

We've won 3 exhibition games and beaten the bottom 3 teams in our conference while, frankly, not looking that good doing it ... Maybe a few votes if we beat Pitt with possibly being ranked if we beat UM, depending on what other teams do ...

Considering the fact that Pitt was undefeated to start the week and still wasn't ranked in the top 25 of any poll I would say if we win out, including beating Miami, we get to maybe 20.

There is zero respect for the BE this year.

Desmond Howard called out the BE twice today on Gameday. Zero respect.

You guys are forgetting who was receiving votes in the polls LAST week.  3 loss teams like Hawaii, Tulsa, Southern Miss, and a 4 loss Clemson.  And that was last week.  There was a huge amount of 3 loss teams getting votes (although USF wasn't one of them)...I think there's an outside chance USF gets ranked by winning next week, especially if it's convincingly.

UCF got ranked by beating a bunch of worse CUSA nobodies and losing to the only BCS teams they played.

Entering this week, Pitt had the same number of losses as USF. Now, Pitt has more.

But they were winning by mostly blowouts and were only 1 score down in both of their BCS losses ....
