We have 1 win over a team that's currently ranked
. When the season started Texas was 1 ND was 6, LSU was 9, Florida 13, South Carolina was 15 all on our schedule. Maybe the problem is that the morons in charge of ranking people do not know what they are doing. Indiana is getting a pass, Oregon getting a pass Ole Miss getting a pass. None of those teams schedules are good.
Are you arguing that the preseason rankings should carry weight now? Or that those teams were actually all really good?
Indiana has one less loss than us. A better win (Oregon vs Notre Dame). A better 2nd win (Iowa vs Missouri). A better 3rd win (Illinois vs LSU). A better 4th win (Penn State vs Auburn) .
Oregon has a better loss than us. But we DO have the better win. Oregon's 2nd best win better than ours (again Iowa vs Missour). Oregon's third best win is better than ours (Washington vs LSU). Oregon's 4th best win is better than ours (Minnesota vs take your pick amongst the garbage; let's go with Auburn). Oregon's 5th best win is better than ours (Northwestern vs again whoever you want).
Ole Miss and us are VERY close. But if the committee thinks Oklahoma is better than Notre Dame and since Georgia beat the sips by 25, then what case do we really have.
You'd be making a truly outlying case to argue that EVERY team is misranked just to keep us down. Or make some convenient case with composite talent; at that point why even play the games.
The issue isn't that we're misranked. The issue is that YOU don't think we're actually good. Because if we did, you'd welcome a home game against a good opponent. Win and all this goes away.
