Look at their schedule and tell me why

outside of wins over a .500 Clemson and an (imo) overrated BYU team, TCU is in the rankings at all. Running the table in the Mountain West is not exactly grounds for national recognition. But I suppose undefeated does have its merit.

I mean, nobody wants to rank Troy for taking care of business in the Sun Belt.

That said, your rankings seem pretty dead on to me.

I know you hate Boise...

…and I think they’re overrated too, but I’m not really sure how you drop them three spots for winning 54-9 on the road.

Risidual punishment...

…for playing it so close against a Tulsa team that just got beaten by UTEP.

Miami lost to Clemson...

and went UP 2 to 10th from 12th in the Harris poll, go figure.

1. Florida 2. Alabama 3. Texas 4.USC (sneaking up)

Got that winning feelin'

Rank 'em...

…where you like, but to me, Texas stays at third ’til somebody loses. The Big 12 sucks. Name a real quality win on their schedule. They had to squeak by a 3-loss OU team playing without their Heisman-winning QB. People are so fickle. Texas looked awful last week, but what a game they had against a talent-depleted Mizzou squad (sorry, Mizzou fans)!

The SEC is the home of champions. UF is the defending champ who returned everyone not named Percy, and is still winning without a healthy Brandon Spikes. Alabama, despite our recent offensive struggles, is playing the best football in the country in the best conference in America.

Texas may win it all, but they’ll need us to beat ourselves up to do it.

Five spots? Really? I don’t see it at all.

thank god for an off week, maybe we start the second half of the season off like we did the first half

We need a bye week...

….in the worst way, if only because Saban typically takes that week’s practice to rest up and refocus on fundamentals instead of preparing for the next opponent. I honestly think if we can get the players focused on technique for an entire week without worrying about a game plan as well, we’ll see the team that beat Va. Tech against LSU, not the team that has survived the last two.

This

Our running game against Va Tech and our passing game against Arkansas all rolled into one would be nice, kthxbye.

Amen to NLS

We don’t agree on much, but today we are in total agreement.

Texas at #1 is probably a one week thing...

Honestly, the way Alabama, Florida, and Iowa played this weekend, I just can’t see giving any of them a #1 vote since none of them played like a #1 team.

Missouri sucks

Beating them up is hardly more impressive than beating up North Texas.

If ya don't know...

…we’re #2 in the AP and BCS…Tejas is 3rd….

Texas, Bama, USC, Boise...

the big question is:

What about Auburn?

MATRIX: Bennett, I thought you were--

BENNETT: Dead? You thought wrong. Ever since you had me thrown out of the unit, I've been waiting to pay you back. Do you know what today is, Matrix? Payday.

Baby steps to respectability

Baby steps to .500. Baby steps to 6-6.

Oklahoma

Really? Just seems too early to have three loss teams that are ranked.

by Nico2.0 on Oct 25, 2009 11:43 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Probably...

….but I was scraping the barrel at that point and they slaughtered Kansas. It was them or Temple.

They lost to Washington...

…who they should have blown the doors off of. Also, I have Oregon in the top ten, and have Arizona ranked as well. And if you’ll look back, I’ve had Stanford, UCLA, and Oregon State ranked at one time or another, so it’s not a hate the Pac 10 thing.

Ok, okaaaaaaaaay!

But gee, I sure would feel a lot better if I saw a picture of . . . . .? of. . . .what’s her name? You know? The one . . . . the one with the BIG TATS! (uh-oh! did I really mean tats- as in tattoos? no, couldn’t be. never had a RBR sweetheart with tats? . . . .? then did I mean tats- as in tits? no, not that either. my homies didn’t pick ScarJo that one ill-fated 2008. hmmmmm?)

How ‘bout a cute maybe scandalous picture of Aussie-girl? It’s still 2009, yes? Well, I’d sure feel better about things if you rocked one of Rach for us/me. Would ya? (I can see it coming right now. “NO! Ya big wuss. And get that lotion out your hands blind-boy!” -(Todd regulatin’ Bix. Again)

Still?

We played with a shell-shocked 2nd string QB, no Taylor Mays, and the loss was AN AWAY GAME! (same place where LSU had some troubles. Just saying)
