DAG 33,955 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 We are now #7 LSU jumps to # 15 setting up an exciting match up in two weeks. SEC has 7 teams in the top 25 http://sportspolls.usatoday.com/ncaa/football/polls/coaches-poll/2018/2/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthGATiger 1,801 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 These guys make no sense to me. How does UGA play Austin Peay and move over OSU who curb stomped Oregon state? What did UGA and Ohio State do to make the coaches flip them? I hate both of them and don't care but some of the stuff in these polls is baffling. We would not be happy if it was us. Meanwhile State Penn needs overtime to beat App State and they only drop 1 position. It should have never made it to overtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAG 33,955 Posted September 4, 2018 Author Share Posted September 4, 2018 LSU arguably could be in the top ten once the AP Poll comes out . Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeek 16,607 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 1. Georgia did what exactly to move up? I'm in the same boat as @NorthGATiger on this one. 2. Wisconsin only put up 34 points on a bad Western Kentucky team. Not sure why they rose up. 3. Penn State only down 1 after almost losing to App State??? 4. Washington down 5 is too much. They were neck and neck with us in the game so they should be almost right behind us in the polls. 5. Virginia Tech over LSU? Lol k. 6. Michigan State only down 1? Lol k. 7. Go Knights!

Coaches poll doesn’t make any sense. However, UGA shouldn’t have been ranked below them to begin with to be fair. The AP poll has UGA two spots ahead of tOSU I believe last opening weekend.

aucanucktiger 1,789 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Unlike the AP human poll, the "coaches poll" gets almost zero attention from the playoff committee (notwithstanding it's hype by USAToday), in part because it is actually frequently created by program PR directors rather than coaches who hardly have time to research such stuff not on their schedule during the season. https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2018/9/4/17817518/ncaa-football-rankings-week-1-2018-new-updated-top-25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boisnumber1 2,817 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 This is why the playoff was started. These polls have always been a bunch of bs. The people that vote in them havent the integrity to vote honestly. Thank god we dont have to rely on the Ahole Poll (AP) to be fair anymore.

These meaningless polls are for fan discussion purposes only, the actual coaches don't have the time to even place their own vote - they get some GA to do it.

AUsince72 11,084 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 In my incredibly humble opinion.... Polls suck. Who cares? Auburn has one of three goals based on recent evidence. Goal# 1: Beat Georgia, Beat Bama, Win the SECCG Goal# 2: Lose to Georgia, Beat Bama, Win the SECCG Now, if you want Auburn to have to depend on the knuckleheads who come up with these entirely way too subjective (and led by TV ratings & $$$) polls then there's always...... Goal# 3: Beat Georgia, Lose to Bama, No SECCG and Back door their way into the CFP BABY!!!! ....course for that to happen, AU cannot afford any 2017 LSU type debacles... War Eagle!
