I thought it'd be a decade before we started off that high again after the abortion at Lambeau field. Gotta give O props for bringing us back in the top 6 for 7 AP poll weeks now in his tenure.

Check out Army who has enough votes to nearly break into the T25 at #27.

LSU with 40% of the top 10 on the regular season schedule.

We don't play Georgia this year.


And you can remove us from the denominator, so we play 33% of the the teams in the top 10 that aren't LSU.

Was this the poll at the end of the season or a new one?

TD staff reporter that printed this list needs to explain if the overall records are predictions for next year. I’m confused

I've never understood that. Ranking someone not as good because they're schedule to the championship is harder is the stupidest shite I've ever heard of in my life. hey your team is loaded but your schedule is really hard to get there so let's make it even harder for you by ranking you worse..or your schedules really easy let's put you at number one since it's easy for you to get there let's make it even easier. Okay someones schedule is easy someone's is hard. who gives a shite. has literally zero to do with the ranking in fact that's the opposite of what they should do.. why would you help a team with an easier schedule and hurt a team with a harder schedule?????? the fact that this existed means people thought this made sense, that had important jobs. Wtf

Yes, they’re predicting Nebraska to go 4-8 but be ranked in the top 25.

ETA: When the article was first published some of the records from last year weren’t correct, but the link has been updated.

we play 5 teams ranked in the initial Top 25, plus if you want to count MooState and Utah State since they received votes to be in the Top 25 ... we essentially play more than half our regular-season schedule against ranked teams.

let's fricking Geaux boys!! this team is fixin' to wreck some folks' shite this year!

Serious????? Both have a brutal schedule..... if they both make it through that with 9-10 wins they should be top 5.

In- guess they expect 3 of the following - Bama, A&M, Texas, Auburn or Florida to beat us, and we still stay ahead of all of them except Bama in the poll?
