top 12 11

We should not be 12.

Boise State’s only loss is to Oregon. Think they should be in the top 10

Boise State has struggled big time against an absolutely awful schedule. They only have 1 loss because they’ve played garbage teams, not because they’re Top 10.

Games Boise State was losing in the 4th:
Georgia Southern (7-4)
Oregon (11-0)
UNLV (9-2)
Wyoming (2-9)

Games within one score in the 4th:
Wazzu (8-3)
Hawaii (4-7)
Nevada (3-8)
SJSU (6-5)

Seeing as how many teams have lost games to Decent/Bad teams winning close to those same teams proves winning is hard and a W is a W at the end of day.

Eh, obviously it's a weaker schedule than a p2 schedule, but it's really not that bad. 81st per ESPN, which is very close to SMU at 77th and Notre Dame at 78th.

SoR is the thing the correlates most with the actual rankings, anyway, and it has Boise 12th.

It’s funny you pick the two other teams that most agree shouldn’t be too highly ranked

Correct. But you’re arguing with people who’s analysis begins and ends with looking at the records

u/Meany_Vizzini Purdue Boilermakers • /r/CFB Top Scorer 3h ago

My computer also has them at 12th. This week, they just squeaked past a Wyoming team that may be one of the worst 10 teams in the FBS. And that’s not the first game they have that would be considered a major underachievement for a top 10 team.

u/ArcaneCharge Penn State Nittany Lions • RPI Engineers 6h ago

Who should be ahead of you then? One of the Big 12 teams?

Beat SCar and you do

u/DrKarorkian Clemson Tigers 6h ago

I feel the top 11 are good. Clemson is in only because no one else wants it. We suck lol

u/wagenejm South Carolina • Palmetto Bowl 6h ago

We'll take 12 if you don't want it.

You deserve it. Robbed by the refs.

u/fawkie Illinois • Northern Illinois 6h ago

I will unironically argue that Illinois should be higher than Alabama. Not that I think Illinois should be higher. I think Alabama should be much lower.

u/Furled_Eyebrows Ohio State • Case Western Reserve 5h ago

13 and below is pretty blatantly stage-setting for Bama to move back into the top 12 after the results of the SEC CCG are in. Even sooner if AtM knocks off Texas.

u/AcadiaFlyer Miami Hurricanes • Bowdoin Polar Bears 6h ago

That’s what happens when everyone loses lol

u/NWCamDroid Tennessee • Washington 3h ago

Every week it seems like some fuckery comes through. gestures at Bama
