Mississippi State immediately got ranked after beating their first team with a winning record all season. They're 1-4 this year against teams with winning records, including a loss to 7-5 Kentucky, and still get ranked in the top-25.

The team they beat (and replaced in the standings) was Ole Miss, who themselves was 2-4 against teams with winning records, the only victories being against Troy and Kentucky and one of their losses to 6-6 Arkansas.

LSU lost by 15 to fukking Texas A&M, who was 4-7 until that game with only two Power 5 wins and a loss to Appalachian State, and yet LSU only dropped to #11 in the standings. They've only beat 1 ranked team all season (and only 1 other win against a Power 5 squad with a winning record), yet they're the top-ranked three-loss team in the country. Utah, Oregon, and UCLA all have more ranked wins than LSU has, yet are still behind them.

UCLA has wins against #9 Washington and #12 Utah, and two of its losses are against #4 USC and #15 Oregon, yet it's ranked 6 spots behind LSU and barely in front of 8-4 Notre Dame.



It's like the voters have an SEC quota of teams they have to keep ranked and just automatically insert an SEC team into the standings no matter how pathetic their actual accolades are.

:leon: no lies told

Its so bad this year. Alabama beat nobody but those same mediocre teams but somehow they’re “pretty good” wins, and bama is trying to make a case for the playoffs.

All the sec teams have AWFUL, INEXCUSABLE losses and huge defensive givings too. The stuff that sinks a team for good in a year if they weren’t sec.

  • Ole miss gives up 42 to arkansas?
  • Lsu gives up 48 to aTm? 35 and 40 to TN and FL
  • TN gives up *63* to south carolina and 49 to bama.
  • Mississippi st is about to go to the outback or gator bowl…they gave up 75combined to bama and georgia, and 33 to a woat auburn team, needing OT.
  • South carolina is #20 today after losing to florida 38-6??? To georgia 48-7??? But this is a “good team”

Bad losses and defensive folds tell me WAY more than ‘good wins’.

Illinois is the same 8-4 as ole miss, miss st, and south carolina. They literally came the closest to beating the #2 team in america. Unranked. We talked about how bad the middle and down of the B1G is, and understandably, but the sec was terrible this year. The Pac12 was actually the conference that cannibalized itself. They have *6* nine win teams.
100% agree the Pac 12 is the best conference this year.

8 would honestly be perfect, you get your Pac10, Big 10, SEC, ACC, Big 12, Group of 5 team, plus 2 at large teams and go from there.

Like this year would be
1 UGA vs 8 Tulane
2 Mich vs 7 Clem
3 TCU vs 6 Bama
4 USC vs 5 OSU

No, I do think every FBS conference champ should get a spot. Otherwise, what's the point of being in FBS IMO. Then 2 at large. :yeshrug:
