They got more votes and are bigger National draws than we are.

This is why I laugh to myself when people on this board think we have a shot at the playoffs. We don't, and these rankings prove it. We had destiny in our own hands. We were favored in every game we played so any loss was always going to take us right out of it unless everyone in front of us absolutely imploded, which isn't likely to happen.

LSU is the funny one. They have a loss to FSU that we beat.

Common opponents are one of the things the CFB Playoff Committee is supposed to use.

Hence the SEC bias is clearly at work...

Rank inflation, they validate their ranking by beating each other. They are over rank to start the season so that’s how you end up with four teams from the same conference in the top 10 it’s ridiculous

It could be because they are better. Do you think the Clemson team you have watched this year could beat either.

struggled to beat a very poor T A&M + average Texas team. They could easily have 4 losses.

We could probably beat the LSU team that played yesterday or the one that lost to FSU but maybe not the one that beat ALA.

They can put them there if they want, but they will have no choice but to put them behind the ACC champ, after LSU loses the SECCG and Alabama isn't playing that week.

funny how SEC teams dont get dinged

at all for lackluster wins. LSU squeezed by an Arkansas team that just lost to Liberty but it's deemed a good win because its the SEC rather than a struggle.

And yet, any of our many victories over SCAR don't help our SOS, despite them being in the SEC.
