way too early to get into this crap. I'll let you all get into these, ahemm, arguments.

i was more commenting on some dumbass wondering why alabama gets love and figured the 91-12 and soon-to-be 8-straight 10+ win seasons might have something to do with it.

if i was on the committee bama would be sitting outside the top 4 today but inside if they win on saturday so i don't really see what difference it makes other than to start a homerism thread on a betting website. i wouldn't have any big 12 team in the top 4 until the clear top 4 start playing each other, like this week. but doesn't matter what i think, you think, or piss piss thinks.
No problem. I won't start worrying about all this till 3 weeks from now. It's just fun to talk about right now

For the life of me I can never comprehend these threads. Once Alabama lost a game I quit looking at polls. They need to win.....period. If they get past LSU this weekend, they have a real shot. Baylor really can't say anything now can they? The only ranked team they've played is Texas Tech. Let's get back to Baylor after they've played Oklahoma, Oklahoma St, and TCU. If they are undefeated then.....this post is stupid, and in fact could have Alabama and Baylor in the Top 4. I mean lets put Baylor in when they've played no one, and if Alabama loses LSU Saturday they are not in the Four.

They don't give a crap about what all of you think the ratings should be. They are just out for the $$ for the TV networks.

They lost by 6 being -5 in turnovers. The coaches on the committee understand the significance of that. Baylor has played many teams yet, their schedule is backloaded. They will have to earn it, and there is plenty of time to do that. These rankings do not mean much.

Shouldn't turning the ball over 5 times be significant in terms of downgrading a team? Should all teams that turn the ball over get a pass? Isn't that something good teams don't do, turn the ball over?

Until they go to 8 teams, we will continue to get these debates. 4 teams aren't enough.

Alabama has beaten at the time an undefeated Wisconsin, Georgia, Texas A&M, and if they win Saturday, LSU. That would be impressive. If they lose its over.....

Baylor....seriously? SMU, Lamar, Iowa St, Rice, Kansas....3-4 West Virginia......is this a serious discussion? Come back to me with an undefeated November and you will see Baylor in the mix. But at this stage they deserve to be on the outside looking in.....

Bama has played no one! Memphis beats bama

But they are Bama and they play in the EsecPN. Biggest bias joke I have ever seen in the polls in forty years. Bama lost at home to a Team that has 2 losses and lost last year to Tcu by 40. Notre Dame MSU and TCU should be ahead of them. Same bullshit different year.
Fucking joke

Bama has the best defense in the country. There shouldn't even be a doubt about that. And their numbers back it up. But their QB is another story.

yet teams with mobile QBs that run the spread option well seem to light up the Bama defense year after year....this happens to be a year only LSU seems to have a legit offense in the SEC. Fla has shown flashes I suppose....but still inconsistent. Ole Miss too.....

should be an interesting final month

Florida's offense stinks. Yes, they've shown flashes....but don't most bad offenses? The OL is too young for any consistency. Honestly, I'm happy w/ where UF is ranked in this poll. I think they win at least 3 of next 4 (FSU game is a toss-up) and then get stomped in the SECCG. Great season regardless. I expected 7-5...or no better than 8-4. That looks like a lock.

LSU out rushed Bama last year 183-106. Game never goes to OT if not for a bullshit 15 yard penalty on LSU with 1:30 left. If not for that, LSU runs out the clock and wins. Now, fast forward one year. LSU is MUCH better than last year. To me, Bama 2015 is inferior to Bama 2014. LSU should take care of Bama and at least end the Bama talk for 2015

What does losing to a team the previous year have anything to do with it?

I have no problem with the polls because they are certain to change a couple times. If a b12 team goes undefeated they will get in. Looks like the Pac will be on the outside looking in at this point. Clemson loses down the stretch the acc is out. Would love to see Bama win and remain in the top 4....Miss wins out and UF beats them in the SECCG....controversy looms this year.

Why would anyone care about a poll in which the process of ranking teams starts fresh each week?

Polls (rankings) are for the "fun-of-it" Enfuego......We all love polls whether they are conducted to rank college football or basketball teams or politicians (yak)....it allows us to see where our team or a political candidate stands based on the opinion of others....... it makes us feel good (or bad) when we see the results of these polls............Most importantly, always consider the source (who conducts these polls).....they can be rigged and, never rely on polls when sports betting.

Get back to me when Alabama plays a team as good as Oklahoma.

Oklahoma got drilled by Texas. One thing to lose and another thing to just get your ass whipped. That ass whipping will keep the Sooner from gaining any respect this year.
