I have no problem with Michigan being #19. They were overrated at #8 (not sure how much though because Bama is a damn good team). I laugh at the people on here who STILL think Michigan is ranked too high. Let me ask you something. Would the score have been any different if Bama played another team in the teens- Virginia tech, Texas?

Thinking Michigan should drop more than 11 spots is SEC hackery at best. It's only LSU fans that are doing it too. They are trying their hardest to make Bama's win look less impressive.

Michigan will come back up the rankings if they deserve to - they have a great name program that carries weight with the voters.

Dropping teams for looking bad while losing SHOULD happen. Failure to do this means you are too busy rationalizing your own preseason rankings to re-evaluate based on the games played. And most of us have Bama #1 (haven't seen any here even ranking them #2), the typical charge against SEC fans including LSU is that we over-rate Alabama or our other SEC teams... not talk them down

Probably some truth to this, although I don't know why this is.
