4chs Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Is Tennessee a Top 15 team? They are.....................in the SEC. UK needs to beat South Carolina to make the top 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wireman Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 They get to the National Title game by winning there way in. Yeah right. :thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wireman Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 They have lost to 2 top 15 teams by less than 10 points. Well, let's go on that argument then... Auburn is 4-2 with wins over Mississippi State (won the game 3-2 and MSU is 1-4), Tennessee (2-point win and UT is 2-3), Southern Miss (2-3), and UL-Monroe (1-4). They have lost tight games to #6 LSU and #19 Vanderbilt. UK has won its first 4 games against similar competition (and yes they are similar because UT just beat N. Illinois by 4 points and MSU actually lost to Louisiana Tech). They have also lost to the #2 team on the road by 3 points. Neither team has a great offense. So, why is Auburn ranked #20 and #23 and UK is not ranked? I'll tell you why - because UK is perceived to be the bottom of the barrel in the SEC and Auburn is perceived to be top tier team every season. Therefore, UK has to pull out all the stops to make the top 25 and Auburn has to implode to fall out of the top 25 :thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzzer beater Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I think Missouri would CRUSH Alabama. JMHO. I don't see that.. Yeah right. :thumb: How has OSU not won there way into back to back national title games and the one in 02? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wireman Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 I don't see that.. How has OSU not won there way into back to back national title games and the one in 02? They were a fraud that was exposed in the last two national title games. Just my opinion, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but has nothing to do with them "winning" their way into those games in the regular season.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Game Player Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Cannot believe you are saying Auburn is a disappointment, they are an SEC team! I figured you would say they should be in the top 5. Should be/could be, but not." Disappointment." Well maybe not top 5 but top 10 potential.

ADopted ADmiral Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 A team can't move up in the polls with a lose...If I'm not mistaken haven't there been some teams drop in the polls when they have won?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hearsay Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I caught some of Oklahoma State at a friends house and they are scary, much better than 17 IMVHO. Texas Tech is the current overhyped team. Sanchez is hurting for USC right now and they've got ASU and Cal coming up. I predict that every SEC team will lose at least 2 games. Brutal conference. Mississippi will pull one more big upset, Houston Nutt is just that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
