Texas only drops 4 spots after losing to 8th ranked


Oct 7, 2012, 11:50 AM

WVU at HOME, we dropped 6 against #4 FSU on the ROAD... makes sense...

Best for Clemson when Fsu struggles. Easier in recruiting and on the field

No, this is the ESPN effect... like Stanford going from

low 20's/high teens to 5th, after beating an overranked USC, only to fall back into the high teens.

Also, OU jumping us after beating a pathetic TT team is bogus. OU will lose several more games, but they've got to get their hype in for the Red River Rivalry, so they can sell it to sponsors. After the game, they will be talking about how OU shouldn't be ranked this high.

Complete and utter BS. All driven by ESPN "game of the century" mentality they want to push with every game now.

Lost to mtsu warrants a higher ranking? Do you think we beat Texas or Ou yesterday?

We were favored by 10 and won by 16, so yes we deserved...

to jump in the rankings. And GT averaged 39 points a game and we held them to 31.

No, but do you think that OU should jump 3-4 spots after


Oct 7, 2012, 12:03 PM [ in reply to Do you think yesterday's performance against a team that ]

beating a crappy, post Mike Leach Texas Tech, just so they can hype they Red River Rivarly?

OU sucks this year (barely beat UTEP).

UGA also only fell to 14th after getting neutered by South Carolina (and they haven't beaten anyone to deserve their initial ranking.

Our lone loss was on the ROAD in a close game to a still top 15 team.

"Excuse me? I don't go down to your work and tell you how to flip the burger!"


I wouldn't bet on us to beat UGA or OU on a neutral field


Oct 7, 2012, 12:08 PM

Until our D improves, we can't expect to be ranked much higher. Our D isn't top 30 at this time

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

as bad as UGA's defense is, we would hang 70 on them***

just more proof of how biased the media is when it comes...

to ranking teams. Texas' defense is about as bad as ours, yet we fall more simply because Texas is a bigger name nationally.
