As poorly as LSU has looked, we drum ECU.They are WAY to high IMO.

I can't remember so much over reaction by a poll in one season.

Arizona goes from unranked to 10
TCU goes from 25 to 9
A&M jumped to number 9 after beating USCe. I'd love to know the criteria for jumping teams in a poll.

It's absurd that in the coaches poll Oregon is ranked ahead of Arizona and Oklahoma is ahead of TCU


I also don't get why Michigan State is ahead of TCU...

TCU has the better win and no losses. Oklahoma > Nebraska. I'd also say that TCU has the better secondary win also. Minnesota > ...Wyoming?

So when undefeated TCU beats Baylor on the road this week where do they jump to?

Beat #4 and #5 in consecutive weeks?

TCU

Total Offense
16th in yards per game averaging 519
11th in points per game averaging 42.8 pts

Special Teams
8th for yards per KO return with 26.5
43rd for yards per punt return

Defense (total not average and TCU has only played 4 games vs most having played 5)
22nd in fumbles recovered with 3
24th in interceptions with 7
24th in sacks with 15
and 18th in yards allowed per game at 324.7





The problem is if they don't move high enough will they ever be able to? The remaining schedule after Baylor only holds K state and Okst as ranked teams. And K state faces OK and Okst before they meet TCU.

Like Mississippi state did after beating LSU? You didn't mention them, though.

When TD finally does a podcast or radio show, you need a segment called "Dukke V's Locks of the Week."

You talking about he same prolific Baylor O that only managed to put up 28 on a very weak UT team and over half of that was in the 4th?

Or maybe the tough Baylor D who gave up 28 pt to the Iowa St offensive juggernaught and 21pts to Buffalo

Or the Baylor that just lost their starting DE for the season this week.
