Curious to see if PSU will stick with Franklin. Been there for like 12 years, they are a perennial top 10 team, but can never win the big ones. UCLA was just tougher.
And longhorns are getting a dose of reality.
Road games are tough
Penn state and longhorns out of the AP poll
Memphis is in. Tech and atm top 9.

ut out of the top 25… interesting…
ISU falls down 8 spots. tt breaks into the top 10, as expected. aggy in the top 5.
Two AAC in the top 25. AAC best G5 conference.
Memphis has played no one. The big win they’re beating their chest over is Arkansas, which has proven to be awful
Arky being an SEC team gives them a “quality” win. At least that’s what I believe the committee will think. Even then, the season is still young. Lots can happen.
Just win against OSU next week. We’ll be 5-1.
Remember where we were last year.
For added info:
Number of 0 and 1 loss teams in each P conference.
ACC - 4 (AAC has 5)
Big 12 - 9
Big Ten - 9
SEC - 9
While I get wanting to move on from Franklin, I think too many PSU fans are delusional; they sort of remind me of Clemson fans.
Fact is, PSU has like two national titles and the last one was almost 40 years ago. Joe Paterno consistently lost “big games” and didn’t win his first natty until 1982 (they beat UGA in the Sugar Bowl). That was like 17 years into his tenure. It should be noted that PSU did not go undefeated that year; SMU did, but a lot of media outside Texas hated SMU so would not vote for them.
Franklin has won 10 games 6 times in 11 seasons. Two of those seasons were during the punishment phase from the Sandusky fallout when they had a crap ton of transfers and no scholarships. The other was 2020, which was the COVID year. So take those three seasons out, and he has won 10 games or more in 6 out of 8 years. The other two he won 9 games and 7 games.
While it sucks losing to UCLA, these teams in the BIG and SEC are going to have to accept that this is going to happen more often. Its a result of expansion, NIL and transfer portals; no team is as bad or as good as its record suggests.
