So no Michigan but you've you got MSU & OSU at 2 & 7. I guess you're going on last season then?

And people bitch about preseason polls.

All of the teams on his list sans Alabama are undefeated. Why would he randomly put in Michigan? They aren't SEC

What do the rankings matter anyway? TCU was third at the end last year and didn't get in. They don't mean shit.

They were 6th I thought. They were 3rd the week before last but then they lost* and fell to #6 in the final playoff poll.

*They actually won big against Iowa St. that final week, but it may as well have been a loss considering the teams ahead of them and behind them all had big wins that final week in their championship games

You are right. All of these games and I forget some teams.wins. If Utah wins, Michigan is 8th, if Utah loses, Michigan is 12.

Is that reasonable for a one loss team?

TCU finished third in the rankings despite not making the playoffs. You are correct that they were 6th going into the playoffs. But they were ranked ahead of two of the playoff losers and Baylor at seasons end.

You have to give it to Patterson.Sure he is getting payed at TCU... Bur he could have gone to one of the big boys.

Unlike that Notre Dame cunt who left before the season was over and he had a great team, Patterson has stuck it out.

Temple, Memphis, Houston, Florida State, Clemson, Oklahoma State, TCU, Baylor, Michigan State, Ohio State, Iowa, Toledo, Utah, Florida, LSU, Texas A&M

LSU and Florida play each other next week, but that's the only undefeated matchup

Even though Florida and LSU are the only undefeated teams playing each other there are still some potential losses next week.

Memphis plays Ole Miss. Does anyone actually see Memphis winning?

Iowa plays Northwestern. Could see that going either way.

MSU plays Michigan. Would almost be surprised if Michigan is not the favorite despite the rankings.

TAMU plays Bama, if it rains hard enough Bama might be able to pull this one out.

So assuming Utah wins.

It should be....

1. Baylor
2. Ohio State
3. TCU
4. Utah
5. Clemson
6. LSU
7. Michigan State
8. Florida
9. Florida State
10. Alabama
11. Oklahoma State
Click to expand...

Here's how I think it'll play out:

1. Ohio State
2. Baylor
3. TCU
4. Utah
5. Michigan State
6. Clemson
7. LSU
8. Alabama
9. Texas A&M
10. Florida

And if I were voting, I'd only change 2-4:

1. Ohio State
2. Utah
3. Baylor
4. TCU

If Iowa beats Northwestern, they don't have anyone left on their schedule that's ranked. 12-0 Iowa incoming?

Waking up after a meaningful Tennessee win is an odd feeling. No sense of dread or a thousand "what ifs?" running through my head. It's almost as if upbeat Sundays in the fall actually exist...

My favorite thing about the "Trojan War" 30 for 30 commercial: when they show the newspaper page, a headline to the right reads "Big East Dodges First Dominoes in Realignment".

I can't help but feel Leonard Fournette is really overrated at this point. He's not bad, but every big play/highlight real is basically his mountain of an offensive line clearing the way for him to go untouched.

Hahaha the Florida hate is real in this thread.

But that's not why it's terrible, Ole Miss moves up only after beating New Mexico state, TCU only beat KState by a touchdown and Michigan State hasn't not been playing like a top 4 team at all and Lsu's offense is one dimensional really, and FSU really hasn't looked anywhere near as good as they were the last 2 years. Baylor should be number one overall, then Utah, Ohio state, and maybe Clemson.
