Interesting, you don't do this after the conference championship games?

[Huckleberry]

Texas at #16 is absurd.

You people are nuts.

The misspelling of Cincinnati caused them to show up in the also receiving votes section again. It doesn't change their ranking though.

dang it, that's the second time I missed it this season. The count of letters was right, just that one of the 'n' was in the wrong spot. :)

I honestly can't guess whether you think they should be higher or lower.

He has been saying lower all year. I can see where he's coming from as Texas has dissapointed all year long, but honestly there are a lot of decent, but not great teams this year so it's really hard to rank teams from 15-25 this year.

[Huckleberry]

333 has it right.

We haven't proven anything all year. We have two losses to teams that didn't receive a single point in the voting. The best team in the poll that we beat is #27 by total points. We almost lost to Nebraska at home. We barely beat Central Florida (3 points) and Arkansas State at home (8 points but they were onside kicking at the end).

Texas wasn't in my poll. There's not really justification for it other than name and record. Any kind of in depth examination will show the weakness of the season overall.

[st.cronin]

Hrm, well, while I kind of see your point, who do you put ahead of them? Arkansas? Wisconsin? Boise State? South Florida?

[Leonidas]

I still don't think Hawaii can beat any other top 20 teams on a neutral field and I am certain at this moment Oregon can't.
