Being behind Bama at this point is stupid.

For some reason it doesn't bother me.

11 SEC teams in the rankings.

 

[UTwild82]

Texas shouldn't be in top 20 and ND shouldn't be ranked at all.

Honestly, it’s going to be rough to get 12 SEC teams into the rankings with next weeks slate.

Auburn would have to beat Oklahoma for one.

South Carolina and Missouri play each other, meaning either those 2 flip or South Carolina gets pushed much further down the “also receiving votes” section.

It’s possible to get Mississippi State in, but other than a strong showing against NIU, it’d probably need East Carolina to upset BYU, SMU to beat TCU, and South Carolina State to beat USF.
