  3. Polls keep us interested. But I have to Sabanesque: It doesn't matter until the end of the season.
  4. For me personally, it's interesting to watch the computer's schedule strength and how is compares where teams are ranked...
  5. I agree, since college teams can't seem to stay up for very long. The polls give you an indication who the talented teams are. I am still for a playoff even though we've won the BCS twice. A playoff would keep an undefeated team from getting screwed like Auburn.
  6. I don't mind seeing Auburn get screwed if it means LSU benefits from it in the next few years...No issue there :grin:
  7. I certainly didn't understand the Harris pollsters giving Bama a decent bump into a very strong #3 position just barely behind LSU when their performance was subpar and had to make you question whether they just had 1 good half of football this entire season (vs GA).
  8. Well, if you look you will see that 'Bama has a pretty difficult schedule thus far and I think that really plays into the pollsters heads. LSU not being in the news this week if going to lose them a few votes (right or wrong).

    When LSU beats UF this week, expect to see some of that come back in our favor if Ole Miss plays 'Bama close...
  9. My point was Bama's performance shouldn't have helped their cause one bit. No one who saw that game could say they were witnessing a top 5 team, much less a #2 team. I expected Mizzou to come fairly close to passing us, not Bama.
  10. too many people discount ugly wins. games like bamas was just as expected. a tough spot in the schedule regardless your ranking.

    much like LSU against Ole Miss or Arkansas or UK last year. these are games you circle as a win without realizing its going to be tough.


    doesnt mean we werent the best team in the country either.

    a win is a win.
