All the way up to #13? It's ridiculous they aren't ranked in the top 10 or top 5 for that matter. No one had a more impressive opening week road win than the Aggies.

And it pains me to say that.

polls are absurd, and having a pre-season poll is even worse. If we wanted to pay attention to polls, they should only do a poll beginning at mid-season so that we've got an adequate view of the teams.

Now with the playoff committee, polls are becoming irrelevant, which is the way it should be. Same as college basketball polls - something to talk about, but essentially meaningless.

Maybe. Sort of depends on what you think of USCe. But I'd go top 10, and wait to see if they are any better than last year, and if USCe is just way overrated.

I think UGA is too low, Bama and Baylor are too high. And I would have Oklahoma St at least in the top 25....maybe even in the top 20.

5 teams from the SEC West in the top 17. Has a division within a conference ever achieved this?

So you support a flawed system in which teams are arbitrarily ranked in the preseason regardless and move up and down based on zero factors except who lost ahead of them.

A&M deserves to be in the top 5, and I really can't see how can you argue against that based on how every top 25 team looked last weekend.

Georgia looked like the best team in football after the first week. A&M looked really good. Bama should be around 8-9 if we aren't going off of reputation and actual on field performance.

You could make the argument that MSU belongs in the TOP 25. Would leave Ark as the only West team not in the Top 25.
