This is also a reflection of why preseason rankings suck. With a top ten ranking preseason...we would've still been in the 25 after AU.

What this tells me is that the coaches voting didn't watch the game, they just looked at the box score.


I suspect the vast majority of coaches don't fill out their ballot. Their Sports Information Director does it for them. Some probably review, I bet most don't. JMO.

Poll Problem: Is Ole Miss really 7 spots better than LSU?

Until their next loss, yes.

hink we're better than half of the teams in front of us, but with the 2 losses I can understand being ranked so low, even if the 2 losses were to #1 and #4.


So getting beat by #1 and then by #4 is deserving of being dropped from the top 25? And why is it that a 2 loss team can't be ahead of a one loss team in the polls?

Not bad. I was hoping for top 15, but it'll do for now.

The problem is POLLS should have nothing to do with any sports.

Agree. I figured we would be around 13 or 14th.

Was thinking more like 12-14 but it's cool... Beat Bama in 2 weeks and we probably barely crack the top 10 again

2 losses and it isn't November yet, hurts. Too many. Teams with less losses. Even If our schedule cocks it's leg up and shits on their schedule
