USC and OU starting out as 1 and 2 had nothing to do with AU ending up 3rd.
It definitely had something to do with it. There was very little AU could have done to jump those teams in the human polls.
But...almost every computer poll on the planet (which rarely have any sort of preseason bias) had AU 3rd also because they had a weaker schedule.

AU actually jumped OU after they dismantled Ga at home, but then OU jumped over them when AU struggled with AL and OU shut Baylor out. Totally not considering AL game was on the road and I thought rivalry games had more weight, guess not. AU also beat Tenn in the SEC CG, & the rule of thumb is usually beating the same team twice is difficult, guess not. AU's had Citadel on schedule because Bowling Green dropped out to play on a Thurs.
