Better to be underrated like we are now. We will be fine.

8-4 with 9-3 upside is what most people will give us until they see a product on the field. It’s ok guys.

8-4 is a good year , you can be 8-4 and unranked


maybe in the MEAC. An 8-4 SEC team is likely ranked

Top QB room in the SEC according to one writer, not top 40 according to another. These dipshits should be weather people.

There’s a major difference between a poll and a power rating.

Yeah, this isn’t a great article. It’s like he did a top 5 and then someone made him do the last 35 even though he didn’t want to.

ETA: poster pointed out this is a poll, not a single persons ranking, therefore my statement is unfair, even though Phil Steele can suck at times.

Stopped at Phil Steele.


How this dude still has a magazine is amazing. He is just so bad at his job. I stopped reading him 10 years ago. Thought most CFB fans did the same.

Good. I want the team to feel very disrespected.

Most media folks are like puffer fish--they blow up to make themselves bigger than they are. Take away their oxygen and they die from lack of it in the water--possibly oxygen deprivation by pollution. So we need to not pay attention to them.

Phil Steel's publication has become nothing more than an item Mom's pick up at the grocery as a "look what I got you".

I care about beating who you’re supposed to beat and competing against rosters that are equivalent. There aren’t many rosters in the SEC that have the talent we have. If we beat UF, aTm and Bama but lose to 4-5 other schools the. I’d be scratching my head because that makes no sense. You’re saying we could beat 2, top 10 elite rosters but lose 4-5 other games???? Hmmm. I could see upsetting one but not beating both and still losing to far lesser rosters. While you’re at it, let’s just say this. “Would it be unsuccessful if we won the SEC but lost to everyone in the East and nonconference.” If we are just going to make up ridiculous stuff.


I rest my case.
You COMPLETELY disregarded WHEN those games are played relative to a team really gelling.

Yeah. Who, when etc ALL PLAY A PART.

Rightfully so, but I agree 100%. I think O was just incomprehensibly clueless as to how to run a program. Kelly has the culture and attitude trending in the right direction. That paired with the transfers he brought in to help with depth at needed positions, those 2 awesome recruiting classes in '20 & '21 being sophomores and juniors now with experience. Once again the quality of season will come down to QB and O-line play.
