“Army cracking the top 25. Nice!!”

To do that, they had to admit morons who would not otherwise have been admitted. Those morons will become officers in the US Army. Men will die.

That's occurring at an increasing rate through-out our entire society.

Only 18 (and that’s generous) out of 65 are in SEC country. Must be a conspiracy of sports writers.

"Take the overrated SEC factor out of the polls and they would be behind Utah and likely behind Penn State"

Utah is 8-3 with a loss to a 5-loss Arizona State. Sorry, that's nowhere near better than a team with a record of 9-2, whose losses are to the best team in the nation and Florida who is 8-3.

Penn State as well has a record of 8-3 with no wins against a ranked opponent. How the hell do you put them above a 9-2 LSU who has wins against several ranked opponents including 5th ranked Georgia?

You sure do a lot of complaining about how teams are ranked and it seems that there is nothing to back up your argument. You moan about LSU being in the top ten at number eight then YOUR rankings have them in the top ten at Ten behind two other teams that have inferior records.

We are talking about THIS season aren’t we? Your reasoning and rankings make no sense. a three-loss team does not have a better record than a two-loss team, especially if that two-loss team has beaten stronger opponents. You MIGHT have a case for Utah State as they only have one loss but who have they played? Their schedule might be the reason they are ranked where they are, just like UCF being penalized for their schedule. You tell me to take my SEC beer goggles off but seriously, YOU need to put some glasses on. You are not seeing straight.

100 Composite Ranking Listings For 2018 College Football

LSU ranked 8th overall by the averaging of 100 ranking systems. I think these folks are more credible than you and your bias against anything SEC related as well as your ridiculous comparative arguments.
