Saban’s ego has reached such pathological levels now that it is going To wreck the remainder of his career

We have made A LOT of coaches salty lol

 

[swampfoxfan]

Just don't understand the love TCU gets.

 

[Iam4utalways]

Spoiler alert. South Carolina played the spoiler. It would have been nice to see what Banks could have done to change the score.

What’s the cut off for who votes?

Edit: Our rankings ranged from 4-8.
Pitt ranked us 4 and Nevada ranked us 8 and maybe one other 8 vote.

bama better get ready for that ass whooping next year

 

[Bollweevil]

The coach that kept Tennessee out of the top 5 is Shame Beamer.

 

[Ashevillevol]

It doesn’t matter what any of them think.
Get a thicker skin.

The coach that kept Tennessee out of the top 5 is Shame Beamer.

And the teams that kept USCjr out of the playoffs were 6-6 Arky, Florida and Mizzou….

I have a funny feeling Bama is circling the UT game this year...They will have a lot of young talent, so hopefully we can pull off another W down there...

 

[Tombo7]

Why did Butch Jones get a vote? Don't you have to have four wins in a season to vote?

 

[volfeeva]

TCU should have dropped out of the top 10. Georgia's kicker had to ice his leg down from kicking so many extra points

I give Rattler the credit. He balled out. On their first drive one of our defenders ducked out of the way of his pass. We need to come up with a unique color for guys you don’t hit in practice.

Ehh ... except that one time ...

 

[Hulavol]

They should have.

We don’t deserve to be ranked ahead of Bama.
They lost two games by three points in the two most hostile environments on the planet.

We, on the other hand…… 63.
I don’t know why people have a hard time grasping that.

And - they beat a damn good Kstate team like they stole aomething.
We beat clemsuck. - and yes clemson sucks - they lost to scar too.

Note to self - thy shall not be blown to smithereens by a less than team of that magnitude and expect to be viewed favorably.

 

[BreatheUT]

It's a dumb poll anyway. No way is TCU the 2nd best team in the country. Almost worthless poll.

I just google searched it because I really wasn't sure myself. This is what they say...

"The panel is chosen by random draw, conference by conference plus independents, from a pool of coaches who have indicated to the AFCA their willingness to participate."

Polls.
