Week 4 AP Poll (OUT NOW)

I don’t care who it is, if you have 0 wins, you should NOT be ranked.

It is crazy… and I love how ranked SEC team gets blasted by a non-ranked SEC we get two ranked SEC teams (SC & Vandy). This feels like last seasons basketball poll all over again.

I truly wish for our Team not to be rated at this time. Let’s stay under the radar and give tt a shock !
Go Coogs !

I see UT is still ranked #7 off the strength of their impressive showing against powerhouse teams San Jose State and UTEP. :wink:

The polls are a joke. No one knows who’s better than who yet. It’s a bad system. No rankings till week 6 or 7. Let everything settle out before saying who is what.

To be fair, these aren’t the rankings that “matter.” The CFP rankings don’t come out until November.

Hot take: if we beat the Beavers at their place, we’ll be ranked going into Week 6 vs TTU. Why? The ESPN overlords would love to see two unbeaten, ranked teams on their schedule.

ND is 0-2 and ranked 24th.

Even if we don’t get ranked, you can never complain about getting to beat some beaver.

Having fun in third grade?

Why does it have to be 3rd grade? Why can’t I be in 4th? The south park kids get to be in 4th!

Edit: and why is it always the 4th grade when it comes to troubled kids on TV shows? Bart on the Simpsons, South Park, the kids on recess, billy and mandy on grim adventures.

Given the state of CFB more broadly, yes. Navy got a vote with wins over VMI, UAB, and Tulsa. UNLV has wins over Idaho State, Sam Houston, and UCLA. In what world are either of those resumes better than ours?

No world, but at least my post got you to research Navy’s and UNLV’s schedules.

But this sets standard and has an impact on the CFP…look at history …the first CFP poll varies very little from AP …it is important

Beating nothing but garbage has gotten Tech up to 17…

I agree, I never said it didn’t, but by that time, the committee has more difficulty propping up an ND or Texas.

Oh 100%. They got ranked because they spent $60M on players. Only reason they’re moving up is because they keep winning, even if they’re a bunch of cupcakes. I hope we can humble them.

From past history, I get the feeling that Texas Tech significantly overpaid to become part of the CFP convo.
