I like the respect the committee is showing for our schedule thus far. My only quibble in this is that...Bama lost to #4, Oregon lost to #12. Bama's loss was on the road, Oregon's was at home.

Just seems like Bama should have been 5th. Mad respect to the committee for valuing Ole Miss's head to head win over the Tahd though.

October 28th. Nice to see that AU right there at 3 (unexpected) but it's still Oct. 28th. Looooooooooong way to go.

Long way to go, but if we win out it doesn't much matter what anyone else does because we obviously have the toughest schedule from here on out. Win out and we are in. Lose one and we are out. Just that simple.

4 SEC West teams in the top 6! AU vs. Ole Miss, UA vs. State, AU vs. UA, Ole Miss vs. State, plus the SEC Championship left on the schedule. Could this be the most interesting reminder of the SEC season ever? It would be hard to beat.

It appears they are placing emphasis on who you beat and if you do have a loss, who was it against. Not caring about conference or how impressive your wins are.

The thing to remember about this Poll is that it is done a lot different than the old polls and because of that the results will be quite different. After discussion as a group they will pick their top six in no order. The top 3 vote getters the move on. The there will be more discussion and then a vote for the order of those 3. Then the same for 4 through 6 and so on. Your not sitting at home alone filling out ballot in privacy. Eventually you might have to choose a #1 that was not your first choice. It is early and much will change but here is what I think the committee does tonight;

Miss St

Fla St

Oregon

ND

AU

MSU

OM

Ala

KSU

TCU

GA

AZ St

O St

Looks like they set up the AU-OM game as a first round elimination....likely the loser should be looking for accommodations in Central Florida for the new year. The SEC makes it pretty easy....put the top teams up there and then let them fight it out.....a survival process.

You do realize that your post was about 25 minutes AFTER they released the rankings and we are No. 3 right?

Please remove the f in all posts from here on out. We are Auburn fans and we hold ourselves to a higher standard than including f words in our battle cry. Not to mention we are a family forum here. Thanks
