Behind VT...Seriously? I know Clemson was embarrassed in the bowl game but they won the ACC and handed VT 2 of its 3 losses. That is just idiotic!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Lol. VT is still ahead of us. Really?***

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


haha, count your blessings and move on.***


Jan 10, 2012, 9:03 AM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Oh well. I'm sure both teams know who was better this year.***

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


We rank people based on quality losses. See the MNC.


Jan 10, 2012, 9:07 AM [ in reply to Lol. VT is still ahead of us. Really?*** ]

VT showed up for their bowl game.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

They sure didn't show up for the ACCCG.***


Jan 10, 2012, 9:08 AM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Nope, but I'm sure the last game was the only factor.


Jan 10, 2012, 9:15 AM

Which is why I'm surprised we are ranked at all. I'll take 22 and run with it.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

True that. Although, if we're going by last game...


Jan 10, 2012, 10:48 AM

No reason Oklahoma State shouldn't be ahead of LSU...except for those 3 magical letters...

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


VT did not have ugly losses to NC State & GT!***

yep, they had UGLY losses to the team ranked behind them***

did you watch their game and ours ? Really ?***


Jan 10, 2012, 10:38 AM [ in reply to Lol. VT is still ahead of us. Really?*** ]



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I watched us whip their a$$e$ twice.***


Jan 10, 2012, 10:49 AM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


They lost two games. We lost 4.***


Jan 10, 2012, 11:01 AM [ in reply to Lol. VT is still ahead of us. Really?*** ]



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You're right...they only lost two games. That's respectable


Jan 10, 2012, 11:27 AM

Who were the losses to? Oh...

Let's give swinney another raise!!!'''

He did go 10-4, beat 3 ranked teams, won ACC Championship***

Hey we where in the conversation - Thats all I wanted

Big leap from where we where

Jan 10, 2012, 9:35 AM

This sounds like sour grapes even though it isn't, but I frankly couldn't care less what our ranking is if it's not in the Top 20. AFAIC rankings 21-25 are CFN's equivalent of grading on a curve solely so 5 more teams can brag about being ranked.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

LOL


Jan 10, 2012, 9:38 AM

Alabama is #1 in both polls? I smell a rat... there's no way they should have jumped LSU.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

They were VERY generous to CLEM and less so to WVU...


Jan 10, 2012, 9:40 AM

...I would not have voted Clemson as a top 25 team considering that Orange Bowl performance.

And to rank WVU only 5 spots higher? Forget it! WVU should be #14.

We should all know bowls aren't really a good way to rank


Jan 10, 2012, 10:35 AM

teams at this point. Each has varying motivations, there's coaching changes, players getting ready for the draft, others trying to get experience for next season, one month layoff, etc. Otherwise, the SEC has to count their loss to Utah a few years ago.

And maybe, just maybe, Steele was busying with UT stuff instead of focusing on the OB. I can't help but wonder if we could've held them to 60 if we had 100% of his brain on us.

Southern Miss at # 20. Houston at # 18


Jan 10, 2012, 11:21 AM

Conf USA teams ahead of the three ACC teams = BS

Seriously, three non AQ


Jan 10, 2012, 11:47 AM

Conference champions finished above the ACC Champs and a runner up too. ACC had got to up its game.

Agree


Jan 10, 2012, 11:52 AM

Four SEC Teams finished in TOP 10
Zero ACC Teams finished in TOP 20

Agreed...the ACC has got to up its game.
