So you confirm that Navy is ranked No. 25. Thanks.



They are ranked 25 in 1 poll if you live in fantasy land.


Well, I guess the top four teams in that poll are headed to fantasy land then because that's the poll used to determine who is in the playoffs.

So is UGA, but I'm going off of week 1 rankings. They are just as valid as last week's rankings, apparently.

Navy is ranked in the FINAL College Football Playoff Poll. The poll that determines the four playoff teams. The poll that determines bowl pecking order.

It is recognized as the OFFICIAL poll.

What part of this do you not comprehend?

You're right. My bad. The final rankings were released a week before the game was played, forever cementing Navy as the #25 team in the country regardless of how they played against Army (they lost, btw).

If you're talking about week-old rankings that don't change even after the game has been played, it kind of makes the "they are ranked!" argument pointless.

As others have said, it's like losing your game on Saturday and then claiming you still hold the same spot in the rankings on Sunday morning before the new polls are released. What am I saying... it's not "like" that, it "is" that.

Call it a bowl of chocolate pudding if you want. Navy is ranked in it.

Yeah it was. It was a back up quarterback, who made all of 80 something yards passing in the game. They started with turnovers on the first two possessions.


Before I muted it again one of the commentators stated that Navy was on their fourth string QB, and that last year that kids was in the stands. LOL

Understandable that he played the way he did.

Dude, you just don't get it do you.

Trump is all-knowing and all-seeing. According to the poster he can even see into the future. Trump knew Navy would lose that game (probably even before the game started, I can't be sure, you'll have to verify that with the poster) and therefore become undeserving of their top 25 ranking.

3D chess.

Yes and Navy is not going to the playoffs. Therefore, the only polls determining national ranking is AP and Coaches. Navy is not ranked in either one.

And the only way Navy gets back in the rankings is if the skull crush La. Tech. And that won't happen. Tech has a great offense and horrible defense. They win or lose by scores like 50-45. Navy would have to beat them by 40-7 to get back to No. 25.

I have a feeling that with some posters here, Trump could insult their mothers and it would be OK. They are as bad as the furthest Left wing nutcase taking offense at Hiliary jokes.
The next President of the U.S. needs to think about what he says and how it sounds. His only comment should have been Great Game!!

But dude.. they were ranked a week ago in the unchanging CFB playoff rankings before they lost to Army! The numbers don't lie!

It is NOT recognized as the OFFICIAL poll. Once the playoff teams are determined the poll STOPS.

That is why the poll will not be revised after the bowl games, idiot.

That is why the poll was not revised after the Navy loss to Army, idiot.

The real polls are AP and coaches. Navy is not ranked.

Did Trump make mention of their ranking? Or is that some arbitrary line in the sand you have drawn to show that Navy is in fact the "best football"?

Well considering the OP left half the comment out, Trump didn't insult either team, hell the coaches said worse shite at half time.

And LSU is ranked No. 5 in the pre-season poll. The pre season is over therefore LSU is still ranked No. 5 in it. The pre season poll doesn't change after the season starts. And the playoff poll doesn't change after the week BEFORE Navy lost.

If Navy loses 69-0 to La. Tech in the Bowl game they will still be ranked 25 by the play off poll.

Because they are not ranked. But if you want to insist that they are I suggest you keep that discussion around non football fans. Those who keep up will think you're retarded.
