Does LSU leapfrog us in the polls? Even though we beat...


Oct 9, 2015, 1:42 PM

Tech, with the tail whipping LSU's going to put on the lamecocks, will espn's sec bias influence the voters to push them ahead of us?
Go Tigers!! (the REAL Tigers-CLEMSON)

I could see it. With no SEC teams in the top 5, something

I agree. I totally see it happening.

Shocked they aren't already ahead.

I've gotten pretty good at not looking at rankings anymore.

No

Biggest wins they have is Auburn who was #18 when they played (now unranked), then Mississippi State, which was #25 when they played (now unranked). Ours was vs a #6 ranked ND, that is currently still ranked higher than where Auburn was when they played them (ND currently ranked #15). SCar isn't ranked so a win against them shouldn't move them anymore than us winning against GT (wash out, no moves).

The point difference between #4-#7 in the AP poll is insignificant. All it takes is a few voters to change their rankings for the order to flip. Voters have ranked us as high as #2 and as low as #11 (two voters in fact). I'd be surprised if we didn't see some movement week-to-week even without losses based on how each team plays and who they play. Each voter is using their own criteria and some of them change their rankings significantly from week to week.

4. Michigan St. 5-0 1291
5. Utah (7) 4-0 1254
6. Clemson 4-0 1217
7. LSU 4-0 1212

I can see us winning games and dropping in the polls because we don'y have another quality game as of now until fsu. Teams below us who win quality games will move up. Undefeated or not-I think we can miss out on the playoffs, even if we are lucky enough to run the table. Until we actually beat fsu-they still own us as of recently. Couda, shouda, wooda beat them last year, but it was without fameous jameous.

An undefeated conference champion with wins over 6 and 11 (and it's possible NC state or Louisville sneaks into the rankings) isn't going to miss the playoffs.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It would take all power 5's having undefeated champions.


Oct 9, 2015, 2:54 PM

Even then, unless Notre Dame stubs their toe I think we get in. I really hope Navy doesn't do anything crazy Saturday.

Maybe, it's going to be hard to overlook a thousand yards rushing and 15 touchdowns in 1 game.
