South Carolina is 30 in the Coaches Poll and 33 in the AP Poll

Probably going to take beating SC and Mizzou to get this team ranked.

There are ranked teams we would beat, and many ranked too high. Ole Miss is not the 8th best team in the nation. These voters don't know they vote on name recognition and record only. Forget who they have played and how they looked. 90% pus voters hasn't watch Ole Miss play.

I disagree on the 90%. I bet over 90% watched the Louisville game.

The only ranking I care about is the ranking at the end of the season. Historically, we always seem to fall flat once we start gaining respect, no matter what the sport. It seems to be in our DNA to be the underdog and have a chip on our soldier to prove everyone wrong, so please, don't give us respect by ranking us, especially higher than we should be.

I’m really glad we have the schedule we do. It’s a step up in competition each week for the first several weeks. Gives us a chance to work out any issues and for Taylor to get more and more comfortable. You could argue SC in Columbia is harder than Missouri in Starkville but hard to say right now

I bet they didn't watch the entire game. I think the voters in the AP and the assistant coaches who votes in the coaches' polls are lazy and really don't do any research. Their polls are useless and they know it. It does not determine jack anymore. That's why.
