Proud Tiger 4,261 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 i wonder who voted us lower than #2. When I click on that link I get message saying it is blocked.

casatiger 517 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I like the idea of us at number 2 heading into the Kentucky game Saturday. Keep winning and the poll will take care of itself. 8 1 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/180517-auburn-ranked-2-in-ap-poll/#findComment-3512437 Share on other sites More sharing options...
boisnumber1 3,133 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Wish I could say I'm surprised, but I expected it. It's why the polls are considered worthless when it comes to actual rankings. Always some idiot that either has an axe to grind, biased, lazy, or just desperate for attention. Putting us at 9 tells me this guy just wants attention and thinks he knows better than everyone else. 2 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/180517-auburn-ranked-2-in-ap-poll/#findComment-3512438 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgrogan21 6,198 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) Jesse Freaking Newell. DROPPED us a spot. After going on the road and winning two games. AFTER beating HIS 17th ranked Alabama. On the road. He puts us at 5 and we tie. Edit: Sorry it was the 18th ranked Alabama. I was looking at his ballot from last week. Alabama has lost 3 games in a row and only dropped one spot for him.

AUDynasty 650 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 This is a completely absurd poll. A team has a whopping 11 first place votes over another and we’re behind them? And what’s more is that Newell put us at 9. This same voter also placed alabama at 18. Last week Newell put us at 8 and alabama at 17, and we suddenly dropped a spot after beating alabama. This is flat out ridiculous. We’re the only team in the nation that has not lost in regulation. If they want go by head to head, we have a common opponent in alabama and we won at alabama while gonzaga lost to alabama at a neutral court. It gets more maddening the more you think about it. 4 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/180517-auburn-ranked-2-in-ap-poll/#findComment-3512441 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElkRiver 48 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Looking at Gonzaga’s schedule, they only have one decent test left on their schedule, @BYU.

CameronCrazy 1,111 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 It’s guys like Jesse Newell that need his position as an AP voter revoked. He clearly isn’t watching the games - he’s only copying what the KenPom poll says. 5 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/180517-auburn-ranked-2-in-ap-poll/#findComment-3512446 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he still butthurt from the beatdown we gave the jayhawks? Wonder where he ranked them. Obvious bias from a total maroon. Edit: He ranked KS at 8. Clowns like this should be removed from the process immediately.

I get he uses Kenpom but he clearly still switches them around. Kentucky is 4th in Kenpom but he ranked them 7th. He CHOSE not to move Auburn just because he's still mad that Auburn tore the brakes off of Kansas. 21 minutes ago, CameronCrazy said: It’s guys like Jesse Newell that need his position as an AP voter revoked.

If he's going to just basically copy and paste Kenpom and then move a few teams around we can just give his vote to a computer. Now we have to go through a TOUGH Kentucky team to get another shot at #1. This could and should have been the 1st time Auburn was ranked 1st and now we might not see it this year unless we win against KY or win out in April.

BigSammyK 171 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Newell is a Kansas grad and probably hates us because of the hurt we put on them in the tourney a few years ago. 1 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/180517-auburn-ranked-2-in-ap-poll/#findComment-3512464 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUApostle 8,041 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Hi, my name is Jesse Newell and I don't know how to think for myself.

Turd Ferguson 38 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) The Zags will not lose another game until the tournament. There is no competition in the WCC. We, on the other hand, are bound to slip up at least once or twice in the next 13 games because the SEC is just that strong. We deserve #1. We didn't get it. But in the words of CBP, "It's not how you start. It's how you finish." As long as we win our last game, we will be National Champions. 😁 Edited January 17, 2022 by Turd Ferguson 4 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/180517-auburn-ranked-2-in-ap-poll/#findComment-3512466 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgrogan21 6,198 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 One thing is for certain, though. Auburn used the "4-14" disrespect in the media. After the video posted last night with Bruce's speech you best believe Kentucky is going to face a pissed off and fired up Auburn Basketball team. If I was KY I would be very scared. 1 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/180517-auburn-ranked-2-in-ap-poll/#findComment-3512469 Share on other sites More sharing options...
